Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s love story is one for the books! In a resurfaced clip from Lopez’s 2002 appearance on MTV’s “TRL,” Lopez, 52, predicted where she and her then-fiancé would one day get married.
“Vegas!” she said with a laugh, after ‘TRL’ host and future TODAY co-host Carson Daly asked if there was “a deserted enough island” to keep their nuptials private.
Jennifer Lopez Predicted Where Ben Affleck And She Would Marry Decades Ago
“I don’t know what we’re going to do,” she said in the throwback clip about their wedding plans, “but whatever it is, if our families are not here, we’ll both be in a lot of trouble.”
While J.Lo may have only been joking about the Vegas wedding at the time, it sounds like she predicted her own love story as nearly two decades later, she and Affleck got hitched in Sin City.
“Stick around long enough and maybe you’ll find the best moment of your life in a drive through in Las Vegas at twelve thirty in the morning in the tunnel of love drive through, with your kids and the one you’ll spend forever with,” she wrote in a adorable message about their wedding earlier this month. “Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things-and worth waiting for.”

They each went on to marry and have children with other people. Affleck was previously married to actor Jennifer Garner, with whom he shares three children: Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10.
