• Jennifer Lopez, 56, appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on May 27 to promote her new movie Office Romance, and when Kimmel asked about her relationship status, she was direct: “Yes! I shoulda done it sooner!” she said of being single — adding “I’ve been doing it all wrong. I’ve been doing it all wrong, trust me”
• A Memorial Day Instagram post from J.Lo also revealed she appears to have covered or altered the tattoo she got of Ben Affleck’s name on her side in 2023 — the tribute, which debuted on their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple, is no longer visible in her photos
• Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck in August 2024 — on what would have been the second anniversary of their Georgia ceremony — and the divorce was finalized in January 2025
• Lopez and Affleck originally dated in the early 2000s and famously broke off their engagement in 2004 before reuniting in 2021 and marrying in Las Vegas in July 2022

Jennifer Lopez has two ways of communicating where she stands post-Ben Affleck: a late-night interview and a very subtle Instagram slide. She used both this week. On Wednesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where she appeared to promote her new film Office Romance, Kimmel asked about her relationship status. Her answer was cheerful and immediate. “Yes!” she said of being single. “I shoulda done it sooner! I’ve been doing it all wrong. I’ve been doing it all wrong, trust me,” per Just Jared.

Then came the tattoo. J.Lo posted a Memorial Day Instagram carousel captioned “Spending the day with the people I love” — mostly photos with friends and her 18-year-old son Max. In the eleventh slide, her side is visible and the Ben Affleck tribute tattoo she debuted in 2023 — an ink piece marking their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple — appears to have been covered or altered. She didn’t address it directly, but eagle-eyed fans and outlets noticed immediately, per People.

The Bennifer Epilogue

Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024 — pointedly, on what would have been the second anniversary of their traditional Georgia ceremony — and it was finalized in January 2025. The two had originally been engaged in the early 2000s before splitting in 2004, then reunited in 2021 to considerable public fanfare and married in Las Vegas in July 2022. The arc from reunion to divorce covered just over three years. Her current framing — single, self-possessed, and saying she should have gotten here sooner — is about as clean a closing statement as the story is going to get, per Hello Magazine.

• Dennis Quaid, 72, filed a petition on May 22 to terminate $13,750 per month in child support to ex-wife Kimberly Buffington, 54 — the payments cover their 18-year-old twins, Zoe and Thomas, who are graduating high school this spring
• Daughter Zoe graduated on May 23; son Thomas’s graduation is June 3; Quaid’s filing argues the support should end on each child’s respective graduation date, consistent with the terms of his 2018 divorce agreement with Buffington
• The divorce agreement states that payments end “when a child completes 12th grade” — Quaid’s petition is framing the move as a straightforward application of that clause rather than a modification of the original order
• In addition to the base $13,750 monthly payment, Quaid is required to pay additional amounts when his income exceeds a certain threshold

Dennis Quaid is heading to court — not for a movie role, but to formally close out a chapter of his post-divorce finances. The actor, 72, filed a petition on May 22 to terminate $13,750 per month in child support payments to his ex-wife Kimberly Buffington, 54, now that their twins are graduating high school, per USA Today.

Quaid and Buffington’s daughter Zoe, 18, crossed the graduation stage on May 23. Her twin brother Thomas is set to graduate June 3. Under the couple’s 2018 divorce agreement, child support payments are structured to end “when a child completes 12th grade” — and Quaid’s petition asks the court to recognize that milestone for each twin on their respective graduation dates.

Beyond the flat monthly figure, Quaid has also been on the hook for additional payments tied to his income — an arrangement common in high-earner divorce settlements that scales support with what the paying parent actually brings in. Per TMZ, Quaid’s filing is asking the court to terminate both the base support and the income-contingent top-up as the twins age out of the agreement’s terms.

Quaid and Buffington, who married in 2004, finalized their divorce in 2018 after several years of legal proceedings. The twins are their only children together.

• Shannon Elizabeth, 52, has finalized her divorce from conservationist Simon Borchert after four years of marriage.
• She filed for divorce on April 14, 2026 — one day before launching her OnlyFans account.
• Elizabeth earned over $1.2 million in her first week on the platform.
• Her manager — and ex-husband — Joseph Reitman says she’s “happier than I have seen her in years.”
• She plans to stay in South Africa and continue work with her animal conservation nonprofit, the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation.

Shannon Elizabeth is stepping into her next chapter — and by every measure, it’s already a lucrative one. The American Pie star has finalized her divorce from second husband Simon Borchert, and she’s doing it on her own terms, with her OnlyFans account, a renewed sense of purpose, and over a million dollars in the bank to show for it.

“Today isn’t about the end of a marriage,” Elizabeth, 52, told Page Six in a statement on Monday, May 11. “There are moments in life when you realize that letting go can be exhilarating, that closing one chapter creates space for an entirely new one, and stepping into that feels incredibly liberating. I’m embracing what comes next with a full heart and a renewed sense of purpose. I’ve never felt more inspired, more creative or more connected to who I truly am.”

Elizabeth and Borchert — a South African conservation specialist she met in 2015 — married in 2021 after six years together. She quietly separated from him in September 2025, though she only confirmed the split publicly last month. “I’ve been separated since September of last year, and this has been a thoughtful, ongoing process — not something that happened in the past few days,” she told Us Weekly at the time. “The meaningful pieces are already behind me, and only the formalities remain.”

Those formalities moved quickly. Elizabeth filed for divorce on April 14 — and launched her OnlyFans account the very next day.

From ‘American Pie’ to OnlyFans: The Reinvention

The timing wasn’t accidental. Elizabeth told Fox News Digital that the divorce and the platform launch were deeply connected. “Now is the right time for me to launch my OnlyFans for a few reasons. I’m going through a divorce, and I’m in a phase of rebuilding, rebuilding myself and my life — fresh starts.”

She’d been thinking about it since at least November 2025, when her manager, Joe Reitman, first floated the idea. “From September to the end of March, at least, it was really, really, really difficult,” she told Page Six. “It was very emotional, and it was just figuring out how to restart everything and kind of just starting from scratch, to be honest. So it was, ‘Well, now what?'”

The answer, it turns out, was OnlyFans. And the response was staggering. Variety confirmed she earned more than $1.2 million in her first week on the platform. When Reitman broke the number down for her, he put it in Hollywood terms she couldn’t ignore.

“You’ve now made more money in the span of a week or two than you did on American Pie, Scary Movie, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Love Actually combined,” she recalled him telling her.

It’s a remarkable line — and a reminder of just how much the entertainment landscape has shifted since Elizabeth first became a household name as exchange student Nadia in the 1999 comedy that launched a franchise. She told PEOPLE that joining the platform was ultimately about reclaiming control. “I’ve spent my entire career working in Hollywood, where other people controlled the narrative and the outcome of my career. This new chapter is about changing that, showing off a more sexy side no one has seen, and being closer to my fans.”

“I’m choosing OnlyFans because it allows me to connect directly with my audience, create on my own terms, and just be free. I really do think this is the future,” she continued.

What Comes Next

Elizabeth isn’t treating OnlyFans as a pivot away from Hollywood — she sees it as running alongside it. “I’m excited to be stepping back into development and conversations around new projects in Hollywood, while also continuing to use my OnlyFans page as a space where I can genuinely connect with fans in a more personal and authentic way,” she said.

She also hopes the platform’s reach will help her do more for the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation, her animal conservation nonprofit that she launched in 2018 and that has become the center of her life in South Africa. “Between entertainment, digital content, and the work of the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation — which will always be closest to my heart — I honestly feel more energised about the future than ever before. Sometimes the hardest transitions lead you exactly where you were meant to go.”

For now, the practical realities of starting over are front of mind. She told Page Six that her belongings have been in storage since September, and she’s still figuring out where to put down roots. “I know I’m going to stay out in South Africa because there’s a lot of work to do still with the charity and all. And I love it here! I have such a great friend group here. So my first thing is figuring out where I’m going to stay and get my own place again.”

She’s also thinking longer term about what the money could mean for her creative life — specifically, the ability to be more selective about acting jobs and to “move more into directing and producing as well.”

There’s an interesting footnote to all of this: the manager who pitched her on OnlyFans and is now watching her thrive is Joseph D. Reitman — her first husband, to whom she was married from 2002 to 2005. He’s been managing her career ever since, and his read on where she’s at right now is simple. “I can tell you Shannon is happier than I have seen her in years.”

“I envision being very busy. I envision this being, like, one of my best chapters,” Elizabeth told Us Weekly. “I want to be busy with projects. I want to be busy with my charity. I want everything to just grow and be successful.”
