Bennifer is finally engaged and of course, fans want all the deets. Like how did Ben Affleck pop the question? Marry Me actress and singer Jennifer Lopez finally spilt the beans after announcing her engagement to Affleck just before the weekend in a video message sent to her fans.

NO PROPOSAL IS COMPLETE WITHOUT BUBBLY

When thinking about a marriage proposal you’ll be forgiven for assuming that it will include a glass (or bottle) of bubbly.

But in the case of Bennifer, it included bubbles of a somewhat different kind.

The elated bride-to-be gushed to fans about exactly how Affleck proposed, describing it as “the most romantic thing”.

Lopez shared insight on the proposal which included a green diamond ring and a bubble bath, as per her JLo newsletter.
 
She wrote, “Saturday night while at my favourite place on earth (in the bubble bath), my beautiful love got on one knee and proposed.” This according to E! News.

BENNIFER PROPOSAL – THE MOST ROMANTIC THING

In the newsletter, JLo said the special moment brought her to tears.
 
“I was taken totally off guard and just looked in his eyes smiling and crying at the same time trying hard to get my head around the fact that after 20 years this was happening all over again. I was quite literally speechless and he said, ‘is that a yes?’ I said ‘YES of course that’s a YES,” Jennifer said.

The singer notes that although the proposal was “nothing fancy at all,” it was “the most romantic thing” she could have ever imagined, as reported by E! News.

“Just a quiet Saturday night at home, two people promising to always be there for each other,” Jennifer wrote. “Two very lucky people who got a second chance at true love.”

Bennifer first got engaged in 2002 before ending their relationship in 2014. The couple got back together after Lopez’s relationship with Alex Rodriquez ended in 2021.

In the engagement video announcement to fans, Lopez shows off her giant green-diamond engagement ring. E! News reports that green “has always been her lucky color.”

An insider told E! News that “Ben wanted the ring to be sentimental and put a lot of thought into it.” The source added that Jennifer has been “giddy and excited” about the couple’s upcoming nuptials.
 
“J.Lo is ecstatic and can’t wait to be his wife,” the insider said. “She believes it’s true love and was meant to be,” E! News reports.
