Affaires under the spotlight: celebrities who cheated on their partners

Which married celebrities have jumped the fence?

In June 2002, just nine months after the wedding, he did Jennifer Lopez announced that she is divorcing her second husband, Chris Judd. The Latin diva and dancer tied the knot in front of 170 guests in a romantic ceremony at a private California residence. As the reason for the divorce, Jennifer traditionally cited irreconcilable differences, but the reason for the collapse of the marriage was actually Ben Affleck.

A few months after her marriage to Chris, Jennifer started working on the film Gigli, in which she starred with Affleck. Jennifer and Ben became (too) close on set, so the famous beauty told her husband in May 2002 that their marriage was over and that she would be filing for divorce. Despite this, she visited Oprah Winfrey that same month and said that she was very happy in her marriage to Chris.

After all, it was just an attempt to cover up the truth that came out when Jennifer was divorcing. Soon after, she stopped hiding her relationship with Affleck, to whom she soon became engaged, and her divorce from Chris was finalized in 2003.

And while Jennifer Lopez's affair actually remained a kind of "public secret", they Meg Ryan and Russell Crowe filled media columns for months. Sparks between the American actress and the Australian actor began to fly in early 2000 on the set of the action thriller Proof of Life. At the time, Meg was married to actor Dennis Quaid. In June 2000, it was announced that Meg and Denis were separating, and at the end of the year, the actress ended her relationship with Russell. Although the media wrote that Russell ruined her marriage, Meg later came to his defense.

"He suffered an unfair blow. Russell didn't cause my marriage to break up. He came at the very end of the marriage, but he was not guilty of anything. I ended up hurting him too. I couldn't be in a new relationship because it wasn't the right time for her and that's why I left her," Meg admitted.
