Affleck, 52, and Lopez, 55, first said “I do” during a surprise Las Vegas wedding in 2022.
Court documents at the time showed Lopez, listed as “Party 2,” requested a “new name” on their marriage certificate filing, which was first received on Tuesday, July 16, and filed with the Clark County Clerk’s Office on the following day.
Affleck is listed as “Party 1” on the document, with his full name recorded as “Benjamin Geza Affleck.” The singer had legally taken her husband’s last name and changed her name to “Jennifer Lynn Affleck.”

One month after their Las Vegas nuptials, the newlyweds hosted a backyard ceremony for friends and family at the $8 million Georgia mansion Affleck purchased when the couple first began dating 20 years ago.
Lopez’s twins, Max and Emme, from her previous marriage with Marc Anthony, and Affleck’s three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — Violet, Seraphina and Sam — were the only people who stood by their sides as they recited their vows.
