Jennifer Lopez trying to be strong after her breakup with him Ben Affleckbut admits it “took a toll” on her emotionally. Two months after she filed for divorce from the actor, the artist says in an interview with “Interview” magazine that she does not regret her choice, not even for a second…

Yes, Lopez took the conversation to another level, explaining that the breakup was “just what was needed.” We cannot get into her mind, but she will know something herself to say it. The artist then added: “I’m thinking to myself… I’m saying, thank you God. I’m sorry it took me so long. I should have learned my lesson.”

The Grammy nominee, who was previously married to Ojani Noa, Cris Judd and Marc Anthony, likened this most recent experience to “being hit very hard on the head with a sledgehammer” or having “a house fall on her”.

Lopez even joked that she used to love being in relationships and wanted to grow old with someone in order to be happy. Probably, the artist didn’t make it… Even though -eventually- she learned her lesson, as she said, “it only took me 30 years.” She, however, admitted that being alone and without a partner makes her feel sad and hopeless. “When you have these feelings you have to fight it. To say, “No, I’m not going to let these feelings kill me.”

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck rekindled their relationship in July 2021, following the singer’s split from ex-fiancé Alex Rodriguez in April 2021. ‘Bennifer’ tied the knot in Las Vegas in July 2022, while they held their reception at Affleck’s Georgia estate in August 2022.
