A resurfaced clip from the Y2K era has revealed that Jennifer Lopez had planned to take Ben Affleck’s name all along, even before they rekindled their romance earlier this year.
The clip, which was originally aired on MTV News in 2002, shows Lopez being interviewed about her upcoming album release and her relationship with then-fiancé Affleck. When asked if she planned to take his name after they got married, Lopez replied, “Of course, I’m traditional.”
While Lopez and Affleck ultimately called off their 2003 wedding and ended their relationship soon after, the recent reunion of the former couple has sparked speculation about whether they will tie the knot once again. However, it’s worth noting that Lopez has not officially changed her name following their surprise wedding in Las Vegas.
Regardless of whether or not they decide to make it official, it’s clear that Lopez and Affleck have a deep connection that has endured the test of time. Fans have been delighted to see the couple back together after more than a decade apart, and many have expressed hope that they will continue to build a happy future together.
As for Lopez’s plans to take Affleck’s name, it remains to be seen whether she will follow through with her Y2K-era declaration. But for now, it seems that the couple is focused on enjoying their rekindled romance and making the most of their time together.
