After nearly 20 years, they rekindled their relationship.
“Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out that love is patient. It’s been patient for 20 years,” Lopez said in 2022 after announcing their Las Vegas wedding.
The BBC has contacted representatives for comment.
According to court documents in the case, Lopez or her attorney must notify Affleck with a copy of the petition to dissolve the marriage.
According to media reports, Lopez, who legally changed his last name to Affleck, did not mention details of the prenuptial agreement in his divorce filing.
According to documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court in connection with the case, Lopez, 55, and Affleck, 52, are now required to share financial information, including their income, expenses, assets and debts.
The document states that both parties are required to disclose any changes in their finances “until final agreement is reached on all financial matters of the case.”
The court gave Lopez 60 days to file a financial disclosure, and Affleck must do the same within 60 days of filing the information.
The application states that failure to report or update financial information may result in court sanctions.
There have been months of speculation about their relationship. They put their Beverly Hills mansion on the market for $65m (£50m) and were pictured together without their wedding rings.
