Following Ben Affleck’s divorce, Jennifer Lopez wants to use her maiden name, according to a filing.
Jennifer Lopez thanks fans for ‘loyalty’ in ‘good times’ and ‘tough times’ as she turns 55
The “This Is Me … Now” singer thanked fans for their birthday wishes in an Instagram post after turning 55 on Wednesday, writing that she was “completely overwhelmed” and had “laughed, smiled,” and “shed some tears.”
Lopez went on to share reflections on her career and relationship with her fans. According to a divorce filing reviewed by USA TODAY on Thursday, Lopez — whose legal name has been Jennifer Lynn Affleck since her 2022 marriage to the “Argo” actor — has requested to change her name back to Jennifer Lynn Lopez.
Lopez, 55, filed for divorce from Affleck, 52, in Los Angeles on Tuesday, the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding ceremony that took place at Affleck’s estate outside of Savannah.
According to the petition, the “Jenny from the Block” singer filed the court documents.
