The 55-year-old singer and actress, known for her powerful stage presence, became visibly moved during her concert, according to the Cosmopolitan.
“Now you got me feeling myself,” she said, placing her hand over her heart as tears welled up in her eyes.
The legal confirmation of Lopez’s single status came on 21 February. This was several weeks after she and Affleck settled their divorce on 6 January.
JENNIFER LOPEZ AND BEN AFFLECK
The couple, who famously rekindled their romance after nearly two decades apart, tied the knot in a surprise Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022.
However, their fairytale reunion faced significant challenges, leading Lopez to file for divorce on their second wedding anniversary in August 2024. They cited irreconcilable differences.
During her recent performance, Lopez’s heartfelt moment resonated with many fans who understood the weight of her situation.
JENNIFER LOPEZ’S STYLE DETAILS
Dressed in a stunning shimmering brown jumpsuit, she expressed gratitude for the audience’s applause. It seemed to uplift her spirits amidst personal turmoil.
“This isn’t just another concert; it’s a celebration of my new beginning,” she conveyed through her emotional response.
While Lopez is embracing her newfound freedom, Affleck is reportedly moving on as well, according to The News.
Sources indicate that he is “casually dating” again but remains focused on his work and family life.
THE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT
He shares three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner and is reportedly spending quality time with them during this transition.
The divorce settlement let both stars keep what they individually acquired during their marriage without exchanging spousal support.
The fate of their lavish Beverly Hills mansion remains unclear as it continues to sit on the market. Lopez’s journey towards self-discovery has been evident in her recent reflections.
FINDING HAPPINESS
In an interview prior to the divorce finalisation, she candidly shared her feelings about loneliness and the importance of finding happiness within oneself.
“Being in a relationship doesn’t define me,” she stated, highlighting her desire to thrive independently.
As she looks forward to the year ahead, insiders reveal that Lopez is determined to make it a significant one for herself, according to AOL.
Her recent performance at the Sundance Film Festival for “Kiss of the Spider Woman” garnered rave reviews and even Oscar buzz for 2026.
A NEW CHAPTER
This success seems to have reignited her passion for performing and creating art.
Her ability to connect emotionally with audiences serves as a reminder that even global superstars face personal struggles. As one fan remarked online, “She deserves all the love and happiness coming her way.”
With a fresh start on the horizon and a thriving career ahead, Jennifer Lopez is poised to reclaim her narrative following the end of her marriage to Ben Affleck.
As she embraces this new chapter, fans eagerly await what she will achieve next—both personally and professionally.
