Lopez continued: “I was taken completely off guard and just looked in his eyes smiling and crying at the same time making an attempt hard to get my head about the simple fact that after 20 years this was occurring all in excess of once more, I was pretty virtually speechless and he claimed, ‘Is that a of course?’ I claimed, ‘YES, of course that’s a Sure.’”
The “Dance Again” singer stated she was “smiling so major and tears ended up coming down my face” when Affleck popped the magic dilemma.
“It was nothing at all fancy at all,” she mentioned about the engagement, “but it was the most intimate issue I could’ve ever imagined … just a peaceful Saturday evening at household, two people promising to normally be there for each individual other.
“Two very blessed people today. Who bought a 2nd chance at genuine appreciate,” Lopez mentioned to conclude the announcement.
