Jennifer Lopez gave her Bennifer ink a subtle refresh.

The singer, 56, shared new bikini-clad photos over Memorial Day weekend in which her infinity symbol tattoo formerly including both her and ex Ben Affleck’s names was on partial display.

Affleck’s name has been covered up, although it still appears the symbol remains intact three years after the pair got their ink together on Valentine’s Day in 2023 following their Las Vegas wedding. The Rip actor, 53, got a similar tattoo to Lopez including their initials at the time, opting for two crossed arrows with their first letters, “J” and “B,” on his arm.

Lopez hit the pool wearing a white two-piece, flashing a peek at her updated ink in a white Antica Sartoria crochet dress while embracing her son, Max, in one of her new snapshots shared via Instagram on Tuesday, May 26. (Lopez shares twins Max and Emme, both 18, with ex-husband Marc Anthony. Their marriage spanned 10 years from 2004 to 2014.)

Deuxmoi reported last year that the actress covered Affleck’s name with an image of a hummingbird, although it’s unclear if she did touch up her ink with that design.

The exes finalized their divorce in January 2025 after two years of marriage. Lopez filed for divorce on August 20, 2024, citing irreconcilable differences. The pair tied the knot in Georgia in August 2022 following their Vegas ceremony that July.

Lopez and Affleck began dating back in July 2002 and got engaged that November. The former Gigli costars initially planned to exchange vows in a September 2003 wedding, but they called it off just days before their ceremony.

In the wake of their split, Affleck, for his part, went on to welcome ​​children Violet, Seraphina and Samuel with now-ex Jennifer Garner. (Affleck and Garner got married in 2005, separated in 2015 and finalized their divorce in 2018.)

As for Lopez and her kids shared with Anthony, 57, the actress said it’s been her greatest joy to watch them grow up, but it’s feeling bittersweet now that Max and Emme are heading off to college.

“They’re gonna get there and realize their dorms are too small,” she said during a Wednesday, May 27, appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! “They’re going to miss home I hope and want to come back real soon. That’s my plan.”
