    Jennifer Lopez , who recently initiated divorce proceedings from Ben Affleck , has flaunted an array of stunning engagement rings throughout the years. We’ve compiled photographs of each dazzling piece and embarked on a nostalgic journey through the Marry Me alum’s romantic history.

    The “Atlas” star, 55, has been engaged six times, and four of those proposals culminated in marriage . The “On the Floor” singer was first wed to Ojani Noa from 1997 to 1998 and later to backup dancer Cris Judd from 2001 to 2003.

    Following her initial broken engagement with Affleck, 52, in 2004, Lopez married salsa singer Marc Anthony that same year, with their marriage lasting until 2014.

    Lopez then rekindled her romance with Affleck, marrying him in 2022, only to file for divorce this month. Here’s a closer look at Lopez’s engagement rings over the years.

    Jennifer Lopez's 6 Shimmering Engagement Rings Over The Years

    Lopez's February 2024 documentary film , The Greatest Love Story Never Told , emphasized her desire to provide an honest and candid look into her love life and personal growth. The doc, available to stream via Amazon Prime Video, offered numerous insights .

    One notable revelation was Lopez feeling courageous for sharing her tale of rekindled love with Affleck. She also got real about facing backlash for her four marriages and the many lessons she learned from each of them. “It takes courage to share your truth and I know it could end disastrously,” she said through tears in one scene.

    She added: “Nobody figures out anything when everything’s all hunky dory and rosy. You figure sh—t out when sh—t is hard.” Lopez candidly revealed that she had been married four times at the outset of the doc, saying: "I’m sure people watching from the outside were like, 'What is this f—king girl’s problem?!'"

    According to Lopez, her "compulsive behavior" was to blame for the situation, which arose from her efforts to appear unaffected following her unsuccessful marriages.

    3. Ben Affleck's Pink Diamond

    After meeting on the set of the infamous flick Gigli, Affleck proposed to Lopez for the first time with a 6-carat radiant-cut pink diamond ring from Harry Winston, back when they were famously known as "Bennifer." The custom ring, which boasted two white accent diamonds, was valued at $2.5 million.

    The "If You Had My Love" hitmaker later shared that the Argo actor had the word “sing” engraved on the ring. The couple planned to marry in Santa Barbara, California, on September 14, 2003, but canceled the ceremony just four days prior due to intense media scrutiny. Their relationship officially ended in January 2004. By February 2005, Harry Winston had reacquired the pink engagement ring and put it back on the market.
