Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have finally tied the knot.
The Hollywood pair got married in a Las Vegas ceremony over the weekend, Entertainment Tonight reported on Sunday. “We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” Lopez shared on her online newsletter, OnTheJLo, which included photos showing Lopez in a dress and Affleck wearing a tuxedo.
Court records obtained by TMZ showed that the couple got a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada, on Saturday, roughly three months after their engagement was revealed. “I can confirm that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez obtained a married license last night, but their marriage certificate has not yet been filed. The license is valid up to one year,” Clark County Clerk Lynn Marie Goya told ET.
“Jen and Ben got married in Vegas. They have so much fun together and thought this would be a fun idea too. Ben is absolutely in love with Jen and feels loved by her too. They both feel so comfortable with each other and like they share history and know each other so well,” a source told ET.
