From their PDA-packed getaway (that kiss!) to their killer couple style, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are truly the gift that keeps on giving. 

The latest development on the Bennifer train? The 52-year-old actress, who is celebrating her birthday in France with Affleck, 48, stepped out wearing a diamond necklace honor of her Instagram-official beau. 

While walking around with a friend in Monaco, the “On the Floor” singer was seen rocking a white sundress, fedora and, most notably, a diamond necklace engraved with “Ben.” 

Lopez, who was initially with Affleck from 2002 to 2004, sent fans wild with the show of affection. 

“Those two are obsessed with each other, love that for them,” one Bennifer stan wrote, adding a crying emoji. Another added: “I can’t!! It’s just all too cute!!!!!” 

Jewelry swapping seems to be par for the course for the duo. In May, Affleck was spotted in Miami sporting a watch that Lopez gave him while filming the “Jenny From the Block” music video back in 2003. 

The couple’s show of affection for each other goes way beyond tribute jewelry. Lopez took to Instagram on her birthday to share a photo of the two kissing. 

“52 … what it do …,” she captioned her Instagram post, locking lips with the Good Will Hunting actor. In the steamy photo, she rocked a Valentino bikini, Dolce and Gabbana coverup and Nick Fouquet hat.

While her layered gold chains stole the show, it appears that the “Ben” necklace was also part of her look for the day’s festivities. 

The duo spent the Hustler’s star’s birthday on a yacht, and the day prior, the couple celebrated her big day at L’Opera in St Tropez. 

Affleck and Lopez first reconnected in April shortly after the Selena star celled it quits with Alex Rodriguez. 

“The past few months have been a real whirlwind,” an insider exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month about their romance. “They’re well aware some cynics still look at it as a big flashy attention grab and roll  their eyes at the speed of it all, but it doesn’t faze the moon iota. They’re fully committed to taking the next steps and spending the rest of their lives together. 

Earlier this month, the two were spotted house hunting in Los Angeles. “They plan on moving in together very soon,” a source exclusively told Us earlier this month.

Vargas, who joined RHOC full time just last year for season 15, confirmed the news via a lengthy Instagram post, in which she thanked the crew and viewers.

“COVID 2020 was a very unfortunate and tough year for all of us during filming but we made it happen and I’m very proud of what we accomplished as a team,” the Missouri native shared on Tuesday, June 15. “Despite filming during COVID and not really getting to know all the ladies fully, this past year has been the most extraordinary, amazing and beautiful experience of my life. I am so proud of the work we have done and the friendships we were able to build.”

She continued, “To the Fans …I can never ever thank you enough for the outpouring of love, support and the kindness you have shown to me.”

Dodd, 45, joined in season 11, but she said several times that she wouldn’t return to film the reality show opposite Windham-Burke, 43.

“I know I cannot film with Braunwyn,” she said via Instagram Live in January. “I know for a fact that I cannot film with her. There’s just no way and if she comes back then I’m out because I know for a fact that I cannot. She’s dangerous and calling people racists and homophobes.”

Dodd emphasized in the Live that she really couldn’t see herself returning to film with her nemesis, adding, “If I’m coming back next year, I just can’t come back next year filming with somebody so reckless. I just can’t. If she’s on, I’m probably out. So, that’s probably the way it goes. And by the way, she says she couldn’t film with me, so there you go.”

In her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, she showed Shannon Beador giving her Class Azule tequila.

“Thank you Shannon Beador,” she said. “Thank you for giving me my parting gift.”

Beador, 57, shook her head, and Dodd assured her the news was “already out there.”

Dubrow, for her part, has been saying for years that she’d be open to rejoining if things changed. “Well, I always say ‘never say never,’ because, you know, if in two years I was back on the show I don’t want to be like, ‘Well, they’re going in a different direction and I really like the way it’s going,'” the “Heather Dubrow’s World” podcast host, 52, told Entertainment Tonight in June 2019. “You never know what life is gonna bring you, but I feel like I’m in a good spot [off the show].”

Windham-Burke, who joined the first show of the Housewives franchise in 2019’s season 14, has remained quiet on social media following the exit.

Dubrow and Beador are joining Gina Kirschenheiter and Emily Simpson for the upcoming season.

“My life has always been very speculated … watched … and judged really my whole life !!! For my sanity I need to dance to @iamstevent every night of my life to feel wild and human and alive,” the Grammy winner began. “I have been exposed my whole life performing in front of people!!! It takes a lot of strength to TRUST the universe with your real vulnerability cause I’ve always been so judged… insulted… and embarrassed by the media … and I still am till this day!!!! As the world keeps on turning and life goes on we still remain so fragile and sensitive as people!!

She then shared her opinion on the Hulu episode, which dropped on February 5.

“I didn’t watch the documentary but from what I did see of it I was embarrassed by the light they put me in … I cried for two weeks and well …. I still cry sometimes,” Spears wrote. “I do what I can in my own spirituality with myself to try and keep my own joy … love … and happiness!!!! Every day dancing brings me joy !!! I’m not here to be perfect … perfect is boring … I’m here to pass on kindness!!!!”

The episode of the doc focuses on the Louisiana native, who shares sons Preston, 15, and Jayden, 14, with ex-husband Kevin Federline, and her up and down relationship with the media. In 2019, the #FreeBritney campaign began, with the public hoping that she would be set free from the legal battle she’s in with her father, Jamie Spears, over her conservatorship. The battle continues today.

In February, a source told Us Weekly exclusively that the “Toxic” singer’s friends and family had “mixed” reactions to the “Framing Britney Spears” episode.

“The likes of her dad and others in the conservatorship are far from happy about it, obviously, because they feel it’s another example of them being painted as money-grabbing villains when all they’re doing – so they say – is trying to help Britney run her life and stay in a safe place,” the insider told Us at the time. “But there are growing numbers of people who think it’s high time this extremely sad and confusing story was aired and it’s a positive step in the right direction.”

Since the doc debuted, many celebrities, including Paris Hilton, Miley Cyrus, Chloe Grace Moretz and more have shared their support for the pop princess.

“Becoming a parent is literally the best, most f–king overwhelming magical chaotic incredible thing that’s ever happened to me,” the Vanderpump Rules alum, 32, captioned a Thursday, March 4, Instagram video promoting her and husband Beau Clark’s new “The Good, The Bad, The Baby” podcast. “I am so excited to start sharing the good, the bad, the messy, the little moments, the wtf?! and everything in between.”

The former Bravo personality went on to write, “We’ll be sharing the nitty gritty moments as they happen, as well as exclusive videos and more … once we figure this s–t out!”

In the Louisiana native’s video, she and the commercial casting director, 40, showed off positive pregnancy tests, a sex reveal cake and early days with their infant.

Clark shared a separate shot writing, “Holy Crap. We’re parents. The hospital didn’t tell us what to do, so come along and join us.”

Hartford arrived on January 7, and the former “Straight Up With Stassi” podcast host reflected on the baby girl’s first month in February.

“I’m now one of those moms who constantly walks around saying, ‘Can you stop growing already?!’” Schroeder wrote via Instagram last month. “She was only 1-week-old in these photos. I can’t believe how fast time flies now that she’s here. So far, she has been an absolute freakin dream (knocking on wood). She’s chill, curious, makes the cutest judgy AF face and loves morning baby massages. We call her ‘Velo’ (short for velociraptor), bc she has major baby dinosaur vibes, ESP when she cries, whines or tries to poop. I still can’t get over how lucky I am to be her mama and I pray every night that she always knows how loved she is.”

Becoming a parent has changed her relationship with Clark, the former reality star went on to write via Instagram later that same month.

“Highly recommend watching the love of your life turn into a parent,” the new mom gushed. “I used to get turned on when he made me cocktails, now I get turned on when he makes a bottle.”

The couple started dating in 2018 and got engaged the following year. The pair tied the knot in September 2020, and Clark adorably kissed his wife’s baby bump at the altar.

Us Weekly confirmed the news on Wednesday, January 27. The bride, 53, and groom were wed in a backyard celebration at Anderson’s Vancouver Island home in Canada in December of last year. None of their family or friends were able to attend the wedding, but Anderson told the Daily Mail it was a special day nonetheless.

“I was married on the property I bought from my grandparents 25 years ago, this is where my parents were married and they are still together. I feel like I’ve come full circle,” she gushed, noting that both their families blessed the marriage despite not being at the ceremony.

The actress shared photos from the big day with the British outlet, showing off her non-traditional wedding gown. Anderson and Hayhurst exchanged vows while she donned a white and blue dress with a cream-colored corset. As for footwear, she went with a pair of Hunter rain boots. She said of her latest marriage, “I’m exactly where I need to be — in the arms of a man who truly loves me.”

She added that her relationship with Hayhurst seemed like a “natural fit.”

News of Anderson and her bodyguard’s nuptials comes nearly a year after she and Peters exchanged vows. The duo held a wedding ceremony in January 2020, but split less than two weeks later. Us confirmed that the Home Improvement alum and A Star is Born producer, 75, never actually filed a marriage license.

After the split, Anderson further confirmed that she and Peters were never legally husband and wife. She told The New York Times in May 2020, “There was no anything. It’s like it never even happened.”

The Hope, Grace & Faith author slammed the parenting police in May 2020 after posting a selfie with her daughter, Ali. The West Virginia native was “sickened” by comments about her preteen, who was diagnosed with a rare form of muscular dystrophy in 2014.

“Some of the comments on a photo of me with Ali are despicable,” Messer, who shares Ali and her twin sister, Adalynn, with her ex-husband Corey Simms, tweeted at the time. “I’m sickened. What world are we living and raising our children in?”

The Teen Mom 2 star went on to write, “Let’s teach all of our kids that we are each born with unique differences that make us the beautiful individuals we are!!!”

Jenelle Evans had something to say about Messer’s motherhood skills in July 2019 when she was bashed for temporarily losing custody of her children — her and Nathan Griffith‘s son, Kaiser, and her and David Eason’s daughter, Ensley.

“So I guess Leah’s not a good mom?” the North Carolina native replied to a negative Twitter user at the time. “She got her kids taken and given back just like me.”

Messer responded, writing, “She’s gotta pin her troubles on someone. Why not it be me? Worry about what’s good for you and those babies Jenelle. Stop attacking people on social media.”

When a fan applauded the former cheerleader for speaking out, she wrote, “She ain’t worth my time.”

One year prior to Evans’ tweets, Messer told Us Weekly exclusively that her custody agreement with Simms had “always been 50/50.”

She explained in 2018: “People were like, ‘Leah lost custody.’ I almost did, but I never lost custody of my children.”

The youngest daughter of Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli was a popular beauty influencer with nearly two million YouTube subscribers when the Full House actress and the fashion designer were arrested in March 2019. After her parents were accused of paying $500,000 in bribes to ensure Olivia Jade and sister Bella Rose Giannulli’s admissions into the University of Southern California, the social media influencer lost her brand deals and stopped posting videos on her channel. The sisters also dropped out of USC.

“Jackson has been there for Olivia. Whether it be the occasional coffee run or just being physically near her, he’s trying to be supportive,” a source told Us in May 2019 amid the backlash. “It hasn’t always been easy, given the crazy amount of spotlight on them right now.”

Later that month, Us broke the news that they hit pause on their romance amid the scandal. They later reconciled.

“Olivia really loves him,” an insider told Us in May 2020. “He’s so chill and laid-back that she can’t help but be comfortable around him.”

While Loughlin and Mossimo maintained their innocence for more than a year, the duo changed their pleas to guilty in May 2020 as part of a plea agreement. The actress was subsequently ordered to two months in prison and began her sentence in October 2020. Mossimo, for his part, surrendered in that November to start his five-month sentence. The twosome were also ordered to pay fines, complete community service and sentenced to two years of supervised release.

Olivia Jade reentered the social scene in Los Angeles in 2020, but continued to keep a low-profile on social media and only uploaded two YouTube videos to her channel. She spoke publicly about the scandal for the first time on Facebook Watch’s Red Table Talk in December 2020.

“We had the means to do something and we completely took it and ran with it. It was something that it was wrong,” she told Adrienne Banfield-Jones, Jada Pinkett Smith and Willow Smith. “It really can’t be excused. On paper, it’s bad — it’s really bad. But I think what a lot of people don’t know is my parents came from a place of just, ‘I love my kids I just want to help my kids — whatever is best for them — I worked my whole life to provide for my family.’ I think they thought it was normal.”

After her tell-all chat, Guthy expressed his support for Olivia Jade.

The former couple wed in June 2013 and went on to welcome their eldest son, Camden, the following year. He became a big brother when Jaxon and Saylor arrived in 2014 and 2015, respectively.

In April 2020, the Very Cavallari stars announced that they were calling it quits, writing in a joint statement via Instagram: “With great sadness, after 10 years together we have come to a loving conclusion to get a divorce. We have nothing but love and respect for one another and are deeply grateful for the years shared, memories made, and the children we are so proud of. This is just the situation of two people growing apart. We ask everyone to respect our privacy as we navigate this difficult time within our family.”

Cavallari and Cutler will split time down the middle with their children, according to court documents obtained by Us Weekly the following month.

Prior to their breakup, the Hills alum told Us exclusively that the athlete is “always” going to be the stricter parent to Camden, Jaxon and Saylor.

“I don’t just let them do whatever they want,” the Uncommon James founder explained to Us at the time. “But I’m more along the lines of let kids be kids and make a mess, whereas Jay sometimes tries to prevent the mess from even happening. … We both have obviously boundaries and rules.”

The Laguna Beach alum went on to tell Us that she and the former professional football player weren’t interested in adding more babies to their brood, saying, “That’s a hard no.”

Cavallari explained, “We feel like a very complete family, especially because I got my girl and things are just so great. … Why rock the boat? I’m happy with where my kids are at! You can just get up and go, you don’t have to lug around the diaper bag anymore, like, Saylor’s out of diapers — all of those things are just really nice. Camden, my oldest, he’ll even go in the kitchen — he’s made himself cereal before. I’m like, ‘This is cool!’”
