No, Ben Affleck isn’t the first man to ask for her hand. Indeed, the first man in her life was Ojani Noa who gave her a $100,000 ring in 1997. Cris Judd followed four years later with another ring worth several hundred thousand dollars.
During their first engagement, Ben Affleck offered a 6.1 carat pink diamond at $2.2 million at the time. Marc Anthony finally managed to capsize her. The father of her twins had bought her a ring with an 8.5 carat blue diamond estimated at four million dollars.
