Bugdaycay also told E!that they considered several other designs for the necklace, like “blossoms [that] are fed with passion and continue to bloom, even in darkness, against adversity … and [a] thorn is the risk we assume for something we love, for living life fully without reserve.”
Lopez wore the special jewelry in a series of photos on Instagram on her birthday — including a shot of her and Ben engaged in that passionate kiss. The “Jenny from the Block” singer wore a red-and-gold triangle bikini paired with a brightly-colored caftan, additional gold jewelry, and a sunhat. Meanwhile, Affleck sported a casual button-up top.
“5 2 … what it do …💗,“she wrotealongside the romantic images.
