Jennifer Lopez's romantic life has been a road filled with rocky passages and sharp turns.
But 49-year-old actress and musician looked like she'd finally found Mr. Right when she showed off the enormous ring given to her by her now-fiancé Alex Rodriguez on Saturday.
The impending nuptials to the 43-year-old New York Yankee will be her fourth marriage, following a string of high-profile relationships.

Following stints on the CBS crime drama Second Chances and its spin-off Hotel Malibu in the mid-1990s, J-Lo shot to fame with her star-making turns in Selena and the jungle thriller Anaconda, both in 1997.
The Jenny From The Block singer was married to Cuban waiter and occasional actor Ojani Noa for a short period from February 1997 to January 1998.
Though the marriage was brief, it resulted in multiple tasteless legal challenges for the aspiring actress.

Following their divorce, Noa worked for Jennifer for six months managing her LA-based Cuban restaurant, Madre's.
After being fired from the position, he sued for breech of contract and threatened to release both a nude tape of his ex-wife and a tell-all book painting her as a perverted sex fiend.
'There is revealing video of Jennifer with a lack of clothing and in sexual situations, especially in the hotel footage from the honeymoon,' said Ed Meyer, an associate of Noa's, while the tape was on the market. 'The videos contain salacious material and are going to shock her fans.'
After a six-year legal battle, the Hollywood star was able to block the release of the tape and the tell-all from the gold-digging ex.

Higher profile: While preparing the release of her debut album, On The 6, Jennifer sparked up a relationship with one of its producers, Sean 'Puff Daddy' Combs, 49; shown in 2000
While preparing the release of her debut album, On The 6, Jennifer sparked up a relationship with one of its producers, Sean 'Puff Daddy' Combs, 49.
The record spawned the number one hit If You Had My Love and established her as a singer to be reckoned with.
Jennifer became an alluring palette for fashion designers during their relationship, and she debuted her most famous outfit during the Grammy Awards ceremony. The green silk chiffon dress from Versace was super low-cut, extending below her navel and barely covering her cleavage.

Once again, though, Jennifer found herself embroiled in legal issues, this time far more serious.
On December 27, 1999, Jennifer and Sean were arrested following a shooting outside the Times Square Club in Manhattan.
The two were charged with criminal possession of a weapon, though the charges were later dropped against her as she was determined to be uninvolved.
Jennifer broke up with the rap mogul a month before his trial was slated to begin in 2001. He was ultimately acquitted on all charges.
