Jennifer Lopez Gets Emotional Discussing Her Divorce from Ben Affleck

As a seasoned movie reviewer with over two decades of witnessing the highs and lows of Hollywood, I must admit that Jennifer Lopez’s journey never ceases to amaze me. In her latest interview with The Hollywood Reporter, J.Lo opens up about her recent divorce from Ben Affleck, providing a raw, honest glimpse into the emotional turmoil that follows the collapse of a seemingly solid union.


Jennifer Lopez, the versatile performer who has graced both the big screen in movies such as “Selena”, “The Cell”, and “Hustlers”, and the music scene, is now sharing her insights following her recent marital dissolution. Previously engaged to Ben Affleck in the 2000s era, they rekindled their romance and tied the knot in 2022. However, their union did not last long; Lopez filed for divorce in April 2024 after only two years of marriage.

Jennifer Lopez, or J.Lo as she’s affectionately known, shared intimate insights with The Hollywood Reporter in a recent interview, discussing aspects of her recent divorce. Simultaneously, she’s gearing up for the release of her upcoming film, Unstoppable, slated for theater screens in December 2024. Interestingly, this movie is co-produced by her former spouse, Ben Affleck. Despite keeping herself occupied with an album launch, a musical movie, and a documentary centered around the album, Lopez has faced emotional upheaval due to various factors.

It felt as though everything I knew was suddenly shattered to pieces. What I adore about living is that there’s no end goal; instead, it’s all about improving and evolving if one chooses to do so. It’s a matter of progressing or declining, and I have no intention of succumbing to the latter. And yes, there have been moments when I believed I had it all figured out, only for life to present me with another challenge, testing my understanding and resilience. Alas, I hadn’t truly learned that lesson yet.

From this point on, I’m grasping things at a more profound level. Yet, I acknowledge that errors might still occur down the line. However, when my own ‘house’ has been reduced to ruins, standing amidst the debris, I can’t help but ask myself, ‘What can I do to prevent such destruction in the future?’

J.Lo acknowledges the importance of solitude during challenging times. Although she finds this period difficult, she believes that her personal definition of happiness isn’t defined by any partner she might have: instead, it comes from within.

I possess the ability to experience joy and contentment independently. A romantic relationship doesn’t shape my identity. Instead of seeking happiness from others, I must cultivate it within myself. In the past, I may have labeled myself as happy, but I was still searching for something external to complete me, and now I realize, ‘I am already whole.’

I’m not seeking company at the moment. Why should I worry about anyone else when I’m soaring solo? Perhaps I’m simply reveling in my freedom.

Lopez is among many famous figures whose personal lives have become overly public on social media platforms. This has evolved into a crude and widespread habit where online users feel they have the right to comment on celebrities’ private affairs. Lopez addresses this issue by discussing her perception in the digital world.

“I’ve long realized that the stories and assumptions about me in the public eye don’t truly reflect who I am as a person. Social media, which emerged later in my public life, I treat with less gravity than others might. I have confidence in my character, my role as a mother, and the people who know me well – friends, family, and so on.

As a seasoned movie critic, I’ve learned firsthand that navigating the film industry requires adaptability. You’ll encounter admirers, skeptics, and even those who seem to take pleasure in criticism, yet it’s essential not to let these reactions define your journey. After all, their opinions are subjective, and what truly matters is the work you create and the impact it has on audiences worldwide.

“Please don’t get me wrong, if I see something that’s hurtful, I’m not Teflon.”

Jennifer Lopez initially planned a nationwide tour to publicize her new album, however, she ended up cancelling all the scheduled performances unexpectedly. Rumor has it that she did this to focus on her family during her divorce proceedings; although there were whispers suggesting it was due to poor ticket sales.

Lopez is additionally publicizing her upcoming movie titled “Unstoppable” in which she portrays Judy Robles, the mother of Anthony Robles – a famous wrestler known for defying expectations by winning a national championship with only one limb.
