I think there’s a bit of wanting to “prove the naysayers wrong” baked into her . I can certainty understand. Everyone told her no. First, it was her mother she tried to prove wrong by dropping out of college to become a star. It also was her family and neighborhood in general that doubted her and told her no. Then, the movie business , record business. In Living Color didn’t want her at first because they thought she was too fat compared to the other dancers . Rosie Perez stood up for her. I can imagine she has low self esteem from being told she’s not good enough by virtually everyone I would imagine narcissism will come into play for anyone who has to build up their own confidence and become their own best advocate |
Multiple sources claim they are not splitting but concede he is staying elsewhere right now. Very mature way to handle the problems in their marriage, bodes well for success. |
When / where did he say he prefers his son over his daughters? |
They are not splitting now, but they are on the road to divorce. They don’t want to add fuel to the fire of J Lo’s bomb of a year with her canceling shows and her documentary bombing. But yes, they are done and will divorce after all this dies down. |
Ben hates the paparazzi, he is definitely not calling them. His pics sell well as in addition to being very famous, he usually looks angry or disgruntled or disheveled so they follow him around. He is an introvert. Barely even likes people! |
You know this, how? They could just as easily patch things up. |
I think neither one is easy to live with under ideal conditions but all of her negative professional stuff this year must have taken a toll. Bet she's an absolute nightmare to be around and he's not exactly the most patient, mature guy. |
I think they are probably somewhat desperate for this to work. Starting over again when you have teens and exes is exhausting. Especially when you have had a string of relationships.
Maybe they will have a better and healthier relationship if they don't live together. |
Maybe. I think the only way their relationship could work is if they give each other lots of space. But if they don't have enough space in a massive mansion with 24 bathrooms, I don't know what to tell you. Living apart seems pretty drastic under these circumstances. He must be really fed up if he moved out. Her poor kids. |
It's over for them but announcement will come on a Friday of a drowsy summer weekend. |
I can’t say I’m surprised at the rumors that they’re heading for divorce. However, I was hopeful that they would make it and that somehow their stars finally aligned. |
She can't stay married. She likes the chase. |
LOL OK. You’re right given the circumstances I’m sure they will pull through and live happily ever after. |
They both seem like nightmares. All told I’d rather marry JLo than Ben, given his serious alcoholism/gambling/cheating history. But she cannot be easy to deal with.
Ben acts like he hates the paparazzi but he has done more than his share of weird stunts (anyone remember the entire relationship with Ana de Armas?? Nonstop pap strolls!) and he’s dated JLo, who he KNOWS loves attention more than anything, not once but twice! |
Is anyone really surprised about this marriage? |
