2024 highlights: celebrities whose marriages couldn’t survive the challenges
Couples who have officially split
This year reminded us that even behind the public smiles of celebrities lie complex stories and personal tragedies. For many, 2025 will likely mark a new beginning, but as single individuals, since not all couples will welcome the New Year together.
2024 was a test for many relationships, and not all couples managed to preserve their love. Insider has compiled a list of six star-studded unions that broke apart this year.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck
The title of the most talked-about divorce of the year goes to one of Hollywood’s brightest couples — Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck.

Their love story resembles a rollercoaster. They met in 2002 and planned to exchange vows, but the wedding never happened. Nearly 20 years later, Jennifer and Ben reunited and decided to give their relationship another try.

In July 2022, they tied the knot, proving to the world that it’s possible to step into the same river twice. But not for long. The romantic love story known as «Bennifer» came to an end two years later. The singer officially filed for divorce, citing their separation date as April 26.

Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet
«Aquaman» star Jason Momoa and Lenny Kravitz’s ex-wife Lisa Bonet began their relationship back in 2005. However, they couldn’t pass the test of time. Although their breakup was announced in 2022, the divorce process was finalized only in the summer of 2024.
