    1. Her statement implies that the divorce process has positively influenced her current well-being, and she acknowledges Ben's contribution to the film's production; despite any negative opinions, she remains a prominent figure.

    2. LOL…shouldn't your twins be the best thing that ever happened to you…oh…and what about Alex…you said the same thing about him in that you were soulmates…jlow is sooo superficial…never thanks anyone…only loves herself….so she is the best thing that ever happened to her….HA!!!

    3. Hmmm, she needed her umpteenth failed marriage to grow in her 50s. Two things that couldn't have helped, the Diddy trial, and Jlo endorsing alcohol when she is marriage to a man in sobriety.

    4. Jennifer Lopez goes all in when it comes to love and her heart. That can be risky for most, I'm just stating my opinion. I feel if a person was in a relationship with someone in the past and it didn't workout, there's a ninety nine percent chance that it won't, the next go around. I wish Jennifer Lopez the best, life because it way too short. She has children so taking them into consideration is important, it's good parenting skills, to be mindful of them.

    5. Everyone here talking negatively about Jen. Ben is not all that innocent. Guy cheated on Jennifer Garner, and has problems of his own. He don't even know what he wants in life either. He knew who he was marrying into. When he married jlo.
