Celebrity couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have reportedly kept their engagement news to themselves for a few days before letting the world know.
The 52-year-old singer turned actress revealed that she and Affleck are engaged, sharing the news in her JLo newsletter. A source said that the pair waited a few days before breaking the happy news.
“They got engaged recently. They wanted to keep it quiet for a few days before announcing.” The sources added, “Jennifer loves her ring. Ben makes her incredibly happy. They are not talking about a wedding yet, though.”
Affleck popped the question to Lopez in 2002 with a stunning pink diamond engagement ring.

However, the pair postponed their nuptials days before the wedding in 2003, saying in a statement, “Due to the excessive media attention surrounding our wedding, we have decided to postpone the date.”
“When we found ourselves seriously contemplating hiring three separate ‘decoy brides’ at three different locations, we realized that something was awry,” the statement went on to say. “We began to feel that the spirit of what should have been the happiest day of our lives could be compromised. We felt what should have been a joyful and sacred day could be spoiled for us, our families and our friends.”
