Jennifer Lopez has legally changed her name following her wedding to Ben Affleck.

The 52-year-old singer and actress reintroduced herself with the new name on Sunday (July 17) in her On the JLo newsletter, in which she signed off with: "With love, Mrs. Jennifer Lynn Affleck".

According to PageSix, court records show that Lopez, who has been known as J.Lo since the early 200o's, intends to use the 49-year-old Gone Girl actor's surname legally going forward.

Lopez tied the knot in Las Vegas over the weekend with Affleck, after rekindling their romance almost a decade after they split in 2003 following their engagement.

In her newsletter, the 'Jenny From The Block' singer announced that the pair had tied the knot, saying: "We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient."

She went on to write: "Exactly what we wanted. Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world."

The Hustlers actress also shared several snaps from the wedding, which took place at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas. She also thanked the venue for staying open and letting her "use the break room to change" while Affleck changed into his suit.

Lopez continued: "They were right when they said, ‘all you need is love’. We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children, and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to."

"When love is real, the only thing that matters in marriage is one another and the promise we make to love, care, understand, be patient, loving, and good to one another. We had that. And so much more. Best night of our lives," Lopez concluded in her post.

The 'I'm Real' singer also shared the wedding announcement on her Instagram with a picture that showed her off her post-bridal bliss in bed and her grand wedding band.

She captioned the snap: "Sadie! #iykyk Go to OnTheJLo for all the deets," referencing Funny Girl's 'Sadie, Sadie' lyrics.

This wedding is Lopez's fourth marriage and the second for Affleck, who was previously married to actress Jennifer Garner, with whom he shares three children with - Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10.

Lopez has 14-year-old twins Emme and Max with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
