Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony

It’s no secret that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had a history long before tying the knot in 2022. Seventeen years ago, they were first engaged, but their wedding was postponed to September 2003, followed by their breakup in January 2004. Despite the split, they remained friends and eventually married other people—Ben to Jennifer Garner and JLo to Marc Anthony.

Jennifer Lopez married salsa singer Marc Anthony, in 2004, and they stayed together until 2014. They share twin children, Max and Emme. Although JLo knew early on that their relationship wouldn’t last, they tried to stay together for the sake of their family. They announced their split in 2011, with their divorce finalized in 2014. Reflecting on her marriage in a 2016 interview with W magazine, JLo said, “It wasn’t the dream that I had hoped for, and it would have been easier to fan the flames of resentment, disappointment, and anger. But Marc is the father of my children, and that’s never going away. So I have to work to make things right. And that is, by far, the hardest work I do.”

Jennifer Lopez’s ex-husbands

However, Marc wasn’t Jennifer Lopez’s only husband before Ben. Known for her romantic nature, JLo has fallen in love and been linked with several people over the years. Before Marc, she was married and divorced twice, in addition to other short-term relationships. Her first marriage was to Ojani Noa in 1997, which lasted only 11 months before they parted ways in 1998. Shortly after, JLo began dating Sean “Diddy” Combs in 1999. After sparks flew when they met during a music video shoot, they dated for two years before going their separate ways in 2001.

It might seem that Jennifer Lopez has entered relationships and marriages rather quickly. In the same year she ended things with Combs, she married dancer Cris Judd, whom she met on the set of Love Don’t Cost a Thing. However, JLo soon realized the marriage wasn’t working and finalized her divorce from him in 2003.

Jennifer Lopez’s relationships

Amidst all this, after her brief first romance with the Batman actor ended and her marriage with Marc subsided, Jennifer Lopez entered an on-again, off-again relationship with Casper Smart, a backup dancer. However, that too eventually ended in a breakup. During this period, there were also reports that Jennifer was dating Drake. They briefly got close, but their relationship ended in February 2017.

In the same month, Jennifer moved on with former New York Yankees baseball player Alex Rodriguez. They dated for two years and got engaged in 2019, but their wedding was repeatedly postponed due to various issues and the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, they called off their two-year engagement.

She soon reunited with her former lover, Ben Affleck, and the rest is, well, history. Now, after two years of their marriage, they are on the verge of parting ways with a divorce. Let us know your thoughts about Jennifer’s past relationships and marriages.

“The Day We Are Back…”: KTR vs Revanth Reddy Over Telangana Statue War

Aug 21, 2024 · 11:27 AM Blog

The Congress government’s decision to install a statue of former Prime Minister, late Rajiv Gandhi, in front of Telangana secretariat has set off a heated exchange between Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and former minister KT Rama Rao.

Mr Reddy has said that a statue of Mr Gandhi would soon be installed on the secretariat premises. A statue of ‘Telangana Thalli’ – the state’s mother goddess – will also be installed at the secretariat, he has said.

Mr Rao, popularly known as KTR, has said the spot chosen by the Congress government for Rajiv Gandhi’s statue had been earmarked for Telangana Thalli’s statue.

“Mark my words Cheap Minister Revanth. We will clear out the trash from the surroundings of Dr BR Ambedkar secretariat the very same day we are back in office,” KTR said in a post on X.

Mark my words Cheap Minister Revanth

We will clear out the trash from the surroundings of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar secretariat the very same day we are back in office

Can’t expect a Delhi Ghulam like you to ever understand self-respect & pride of Telangana

Using filthy language in…

— KTR (@KTRBRS) August 20, 2024

The former minister said it was turning the tenure of former Chief Minister and his father KCR that the Telangana secretariat was rebuilt into a magnificent structure. He called the Congress party “anti-Telangana” for deciding to place Rajiv Gandhi’s statue in the spot reserved for Telangana Thalli. He said the BRS government, during its 10-year term, never thought about changing names of schemes or places named after Congress leaders.

“In four years, a BRS government will be formed under KCR. As soon as that happens, we will remove the statue of Rajiv Gandhi with due respect and move it wherever Congress wants, and reinstall Telangana Thalli’s statue,” KTR said.

In a sharp response, the Chief Minister dared BRS leaders to touch Rajiv Gandhi’s statue. “When we are proposing to install the statue of Rajiv Gandhi, who sacrificed his life for the country, they are saying that they will remove it. Despite losing power, their arrogance remains. Our party activists will take the responsibility of crushing this arrogance.”

“If anyone touches the statue of Rajiv Gandhi, hell will break loose. He (KTR) is day-dreaming that BRS will return to power,” the Chief Minister said at an event, asking if the former minister wants his father’s statue to be installed. He also referred to the former Chief Minister as a “drunk”.

Calling the Chief Minister a “Delhi Ghulam”, KTR has said he cannot he expected to understand the self-respect and pride of Telangana.

“Using filthy language in front of school children shows your lousy thinking and uncouth upbringing. Wish you speedy healing from your mental sickness,” he retorted. KTR has said that if the Chief Minister wants to impress the Congress high command, he should get Rajiv Gandhi’s statue installed at Gandhi Bhavan, the state Congress headquarters, or the Chief Minister’s residence.
