Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are celebrating Valentine’s Day early.
The multi-hyphenate revealed this weekend that her boyfriend Ben Affleck has created a personalized music video to her Marry Me soundtrack song “On My Way.” In her newsletter, On The JLo, the star explained that the Good Will Hunting actor made the nostalgic video “as an early Valentine’s Day present” for her.
In the clip, footage from the couple’s first relationship between 2002 and 2004 are interspersed throughout the original music video, as well as some childhood pics of both Lopez and Affleck. Some of the classic Bennifer 1.0 moments shown include Affleck’s cameo in the “Jenny from the Block” music video and the 2003 Gigli premiere.
In her newsletter, the “Waiting for Tonight” singer told fans that the video is “very special and personal.”
“Watching it made me think about the journey of true love, its unexpected twists and turns, and that when it’s real, it actually can last forever,” she wrote. “This seriously melted my heart.”
The stars rekindled their relationship in the spring of 2021 after ending their previous relationship in 2004. Since then, they’ve been inseparable, supporting each other at the premieres of their projects. Earlier this week, the couple made a loved-up appearance for the red-carpet premiere of Marry Me, where Lopez looked quite bridal in a minidress from Giambattista Valli’s Love Collection.
As for their plans on the holiday, Lopez hinted that she had “a surprise” up her sleeve during her Feb. 3 appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan, adding that she and Affleck are “very” romantic, per People.
“We have plans but, you know, I’m not gonna share it with you right now!” she said “I have a surprise. I think we’ll surprise each other with something, for sure.”
