Emme and Max’s love don’t cost a thing.
Jennifer Lopez got candid about how her 17-year-old twins helped her through the tough year she had after splitting with ex-husband Ben Affleck following two years of marriage.
“I said, ‘I promise you, this is a difficult time, but you’re going to see that I’ll come out the other side stronger and better.’ I promised them that and I did it,” the singer, 55, who had her children with ex-husband Marc Anthony, told Spanish paper El País.
Lopez added, “And they feel it now. That gives me a great sense of peace in my life.”
The couple tied the knot in 2022, nearly two decades after calling off their first engagement.
In August 2024, the artist filed for divorce from the actor, 52, The pair finalized their split in January.
“I’m happier that I’m a step further along than I was a year ago, two years ago, three years ago… I’m proud of myself for that and I’m proud that I was able to navigate my children through difficult times, that they’re stronger and better because of it,” Lopez explained. “So, it’s a great time to go out there and dance and sing and have a good time with everybody.”
This isn’t the first time the Grammy nominee has spoken candidly about the breakup. In October, Lopez told Interview Magazine she has no regrets about their relationship.
“That doesn’t mean it didn’t almost take me out for good. It almost did,” she said. “But now, on the other side of it, I think to myself, ‘F–k, that is exactly what I needed. Thank you, God. I’m sorry it took me so long. I’m sorry that you had to do this to me so many times.’ ”
At the time of their split, rumors surfaced about how hard the hitmaker allegedly tried to make things work the second time around.
A source told People that Lopez “did spend a lot of time making sure Ben was happy and had everything he needed.”
“The way she cared for him was almost childlike,” the insider continued. “Friends constantly reminded her that she’s not responsible for his feelings. He’s very moody and dark at times. Jennifer appreciates life in another way. She’s very grateful for everything.”
They also claimed that Affleck had “erratic mood swings,” which allegedly contributed to their split.
The insider added that the “Daredevil” star would allegedly go from “being incredibly happy and warm — the best light that emanated from him” to “the deepest, darkest behavior.”
“I think he was signaling a message to the press,” the source said.
Despite going their separate ways, both Lopez and Affleck have stayed close to one another’s children.
In fact, they all attended the premiere of Affleck’s latest action/thriller, “The Accountant 2,” in April.
At the event, Affleck told Entertainment Tonight, “The kids are here, Jen’s kids are here. I’m very, very excited. I love when all the kids come out.”
He also clarified that they are on good terms.
“I don’t read the stuff online much, and sometimes I get the sense that people perpetuate the idea of … they wanna find something negative to talk about,” Affleck stressed.
“For the record, Jennifer Lopez is spectacular, great to my kids, great ongoing relationship with them,” continued the “Air” director. “I love her kids. They’re wonderful. She’s [an] enormously important, tremendous person of a lot of integrity who I adore and am grateful to.”
When the reporter praised Affleck for being “a really good dad,” he simply responded, “I try my best.”
