According to reports, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck want to “spend the rest of their lives together.”

After breaking off her engagement to Alex Rodriquez in April, the pop singer resumed her romance with the Oscar winner.

The pair is apparently “beyond happy” and “fully committed” to their restored romance, over 20 years after breaking off their engagement.

“The past few months have been a real whirlwind,” a source told Us Weekly.

“They’re well aware some cynics still look at it as a big flashy attention grab and roll their eyes at the speed of it all, but it doesn’t faze them one iota.

“They’re fully committed to taking the next steps and spending the rest of their lives together.”

Affleck and Lopez started dating in 2002 and became engaged soon after. In 2003, they called off their wedding and announced their split in January 2004. When Lopez travelled to the Caribbean to film her forthcoming film Shotgun Wedding in February 2021, the two were apparently in regular touch again. The filming concluded in late April, just in time for Lopez and Affleck to meet up in Los Angeles, and the two have since been photographed on vacations and out on the town together.

Jennifer and Ben have been dating since the end of May, but a source told Us Weekly that they aren’t “rushing things.”

They told the outlet: “It feels like they’ve been together again for years, not months.

“As far as they’re both concerned, they’re just blessed to have found each other and discovered true love, which most people can only ever dream about.”

“There’s not a single doubt in their mind[s] that this is [not] going to work,” the insider continued. “Everything that went wrong in the past can only serve them in a positive way this time around.” Lopez is considering moving to Los Angeles to be closer to Affleck, according to E! News. “She will be between L.A. and the Hamptons this summer, but L.A. will be her base,” a source claimed. “She is looking at schools for her kids in the fall.”

Meanwhile, a source told People that Lopez is “very strong” and the couple’s relationship is “is beyond happy.”

“Ben always looks very happy when he is with Jen,” a source stated, adding that Lopez “spends as much time with Ben as possible.”

Jennifer recently admitted that she’s having “the best time of my life” in a chat with Zane Lowe.

“I know people are always wondering. ‘How are you? What’s going on? Are you OK?’ This is it. I’ve never been better,” she said. “‘ve really gotten to a place in my life where I’m great on my own. And I think once you get to that place, then amazing things happen to you that you never imagine in your life happening again. … I just want everybody to know that it’s the best time. It’s the best time of my life.”
