Global entertainer Jennifer Lopez reportedly enlisted the help of backup singers and dancers to perform a love song for her husband, Ben Affleck, on their wedding day. The two recently tied the knot at the actor’s mansion in Georgia after getting engaged earlier this year.
Lopez and Affleck were engaged two decades ago; however, they called off their wedding due to increased public attention. They reconnected nearly twenty years and several marriages later with five children from various ex-spouses between them.
The rumored wedding saw over a hundred guests consisting of friends, family, and fellow celebrities. In addition to Lopez’s musical performance for her husband’s benefit, Affleck also delivered a speech he wrote about her and their past together.
