J.Lo: THE WORST YEAR OF MY LIFE

The singer struggles to pick up the pieces after a painful divorce and a series of career setbacks

- 

The first time Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck broke up, her world fell apart. "It was the biggest heartbreak of my life," she said in 2022, looking back at how she felt after they called off their 2003 wedding before splitting in 2004. "I honestly felt like I was going to die. It sent me on a spiral. I just couldn't get it right."

She still can't get it right. Jennifer and Ben wed in 2022 after reconciling in 2021. But her second chance at a happy ending imploded less than two years later, with their marriage falling apart amid a growing career crisis. "J. Lo has been through a lot in her life, but this year has really tested how much pain she can withstand," says a source. The actresssinger's decision to divorce her fourth husband has "devastated her. She wanted to try to work on their marriage, but Ben checked out, and it was hopeless. When she realized that, she filed." She revealed they separated in April. "Though she's putting on a brave face in public, behind closed doors she's been in tears. It's the worst year of her life."
