Ben and Jennifer’s romance started while they were both working on the movie Gigli in 2002. While the 2003 romcom was far from a hit, it did lead to the leads striking up a romance on-set, which led to the couple making their debut in 2002. “We met at a couple of parties. We barely paid any attention to each other,” Jennifer said during a 2003 Dateline interview for the movie. “We became friends first.”

Gigli wasn’t the only movie that the couple made together! The pair also co-starred in the 2004 movie Jersey Girl, which was another box office flop. The movie didn’t come out until March 2004, a few months after the pair had officially split up.

Their First Engagement

During Bennifer’s first time as a couple, they were instant media darlings! They got engaged in late 2002, with Ben popping the question with a PINK ring, worth a reported $2.5 million. Their relationship continued to be a major public interest, with the pair regularly appearing in tabloids.
