Real meaning behind Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's matching tattoos

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot in 2022 and later celebrated their love with matching tattoos

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck delighted fans last year when they revealed their matching tattoos - but did you know the meaning behind the ink?

When J Lo, 54, and Ben, 51, rekindled their romance when tying the knot in 2022 after being apart for almost two decades, they firmly cemented their spot as an A-list power couple.

The two were first in a highly publicised relationship in the noughties - gaining the infamous portmanteau ‘Bennifer’.

Ben even went on to star in the music video for J Lo’s hit, 'Jenny From The Block'.

They eventually went their separate ways in 2004, and J Lo married singer Marc Anthony, and they became parents to twins.

Ben went on to marry 13 Going on 30 star Jennifer Garner, and they share three children together.

It seems time was a healer for J Lo and Ben, who got hitched in Las Vegas in July 2022 and followed it up with a second ceremony in Georgia a month later.

Although it was obvious already that the duo were crazy about each other, it seems wedding rings weren’t enough and they went on to mark their love with some matching tattoos.

J Lo debuted the body art on Instagram last year, wishing Ben a happy Valentine’s Day with the hashtag '#CommitmentIsSexy'.

Well, she’s not wrong.

Her full caption read: “Commitment. Happy Valentine’s Day my love (Look for more deets on VDay coming #OnTheJLo soon…)

“#CommitmentIsSexy #ThisIsUsThen #ThisIsUsNow #THISISMENOW.”

J Lo’s ribcage tattoo is an infinity symbol which features their initials embedded within the lines, while Ben opted for two crossed arrows with their initials on the side of his torso.

The tats send a clear message of their intentions to be together for the rest of their lives - with both infinity symbols and cupid’s arrows being unmistakable symbols of true love.

The couple have been facing rumours of a split in recent times - but fans hope they’re false.

They have been largely spurred on by the couple spending a lot of time apart.

16 July marked their second wedding anniversary, and it was reported that J Lo spent time in the Hamptons, while People added that Ben has been in Los Angeles.

This comes after Ben was notably absent from the Mexican premiere for Atlas in May, the sci-fi action thriller that Jennifer starred in, as well as his absence at the Met Gala, where J Lo was a co-chairwoman.

It’s possible the two just enjoy healthy amounts of separate downtime - as they have both been spotted wearing their wedding rings, and last month on Father's Day (16 June), Jen posted a picture of her hubby on Instagram, dubbing him 'our hero'.
