    Inside Jennifer Lopez's $17m ring collection as it's revealed she's keeping Ben Affleck diamond

    By Scarlett O'Toole,

    Jennifer Lopez has a very impressive jewelry collection, with her rings alone worth more than $17million - and her collection includes two from Ben Affleck .

    The 55-year-old actress filed for divorce from Ben on Tuesday after two years of marriage. Given J.Lo already kept a stunning ring Ben gave her from their first relationship 22 years ago, it's likely she will keep the $5.6million engagement ring he gave her this time around.

    The ring will join others in her collection from her ex-husbands Marc Anthony, Cris Judd and Ojani Noa, as well as her former fiancé Alex Rodriguez . Here, we've taken a look at J.Lo's stunning collection from over the years.

    Ojani proposed to J.Lo with a stunning marquise-shaped diamond set on a gold band, before they then tied the knot in 1997. Engagement ring specialist Laura Taylor described it as "simple yet elegant."

    Speaking to the Daily Mail , the expert estimated the ring to be worth $130,000. J.Lo and Ojani were married for just 11 months before they finalized their divorce in January 1998.

    The Jenny from the Block hitmaker went on to marry her dancer Cris Judd in 2001. He proposed with an emerald-cut diamond set on a platinum band with diamond pavé, estimated to be worth $200,000.

    Cris and J.Lo's marriage was also short-lived and they divorced after just nine months. Jennifer then started her first relationship with Ben Affleck, with the pair getting engaged in 2002.

    Ben gave Jennifer a stunning engagement ring with a 6-carat cut pink diamond flanked by two white trapezoid-cut diamonds on a platinum band. The ring was valued at approximately $2.6million.

    Ben and J.Lo called off their engagement in 2004, blaming media scrutiny of their romance. Ben ended up moving on with Jennifer Garner, while J.Lo got engaged to Marc Anthony.

    Marc's engagement ring is the most expensive one in J.Lo's collection. The ring is an 8.5-carat blue radiant-cut diamond with trapezoid-cut diamonds on a platinum band.

    According to jewelry expert Laura, the ring is worth $6.5million. Jennifer previously described the ring as her most treasured piece of jewelry.

    J.Lo shares two children with Marc - twins Max and Emme - but their relationship wasn't meant to be and they split in 2011 before finalizing their divorce in 2014. She later met Alex Rodriguez, who proposed in 2019 with a 15-carat emerald-cut diamond ring. The sparkler has been valued at $2million. Sadly, the pair never got to exchange wedding rings as they called off their engagement in 2021.

    J.Lo later rekindled her romance with Ben Affleck and they became engaged in April 2022. Ben proposed the second time around with a $5.6million green engagement ring. The item was valued at a high price due to the rarity of the natural green diamonds.

    Despite the couple's recent divorce, Laura told the Daily Mail she believes Jennifer will keep the ring. "Jennifer Lopez has amassed a remarkable collection of engagement rings over the years, each representing a different chapter in her life," she explained.

    "In the United States, engagement rings are typically considered gifts, meaning J.Lo is legally entitled to keep the ring after the divorce unless agreed otherwise in a prenup." It's believed the former couple did not have a prenup in place.
