Following Jennifer Lopez's divorce filing from Ben Affleck, viewers have flocked to her documentary "The Greatest Love Story Never Told." The Prime Video film, which offers an intimate look into the couple's rekindled romance after a 20-year split, saw its U.S. viewership skyrocket from 10.7k minutes on Tuesday, August 20 (the day of the filing) to a staggering 354.1k minutes on Wednesday, August 21. This represents an unprecedented 3,000% increase in just one day.

The documentary, released alongside Lopez's album "This Is Me ... Now," captures the singer's journey of reconnecting with Affleck, nearly two decades after they called off their initial engagement in 2004. The film features Lopez reflecting on their unexpected reunion and the profound impact it had on her life and music.  

In previous interviews, Lopez expressed her disbelief at reuniting with Affleck, stating, "I never thought that he and I would get back together." She emphasized her unwavering belief in the possibility of a fulfilling love, even during challenging times. The documentary captures the "crazy, strange, magical, surrealistic plot twist" of rekindling their relationship, which served as a major inspiration for her latest album.
