There’s separating amicably, and then there are Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony-style “Person of the Year” awards. Lopez, speaking of Anthony in front of a cheering crowd at the 2016 Latin Grammys, stated, “He’ll always mean a lot in my life.” He’s more than just a year-old human being. He’s someone who will be remembered for generations to come.
Years ago, fans were taken aback by Lopez and Anthony’s shocking announcement of their split after seven years of marriage (via Us Weekly). They are the most amicable former couple in the music industry today,
always showing up on each other’s social media feeds with their children and giving in to the “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” chants from their fans at award shows. Anthony and Lopez have both moved on from their breakup and found success with subsequent partners,
albums, and businesses. Even so, the amount of affection between them is undeniable. Where did Lopez and the guy she called her “twin soul” and “mentor” go wrong? What we know is as follows.

When Did Marc Anthony’s Marriage Break Down?
Ferreira has shared details of her split with Marc Anthony. In a private interview, she explained how she felt about the whole thing. Since Ferreira and Anthony haven’t spoken in years and she has her own life to worry about, she says she doesn’t care what the media reports about him and his private life.
Ferreira, a successful entrepreneur, insisted she had nothing to do with Anthony’s recent divorce, wished him well, and declined further comment. She said she was over that period of her life and wished the same for others.
According to their sources, their marriage hasn’t helped their situation, even if they’re now expecting a kid. The couple’s more than 30-year age gap drew scrutiny and condemnation on social media. The “Chisme No Like” host, Javier Ceriani, went into great depth about the breakup.
Jennifer And Marc’s Marriage Was A Temporary Fix, Or “Band-Aid On The Cut”
When Jennifer and Marc first met in 1998, Marc dropped hints that he had designs on marrying the actress. When Jennifer and Ben Affleck finally split for good in January 2004, that’s when things heated up. In the same year, Jennifer and Marc tied the knot.
It started out “passionate” and “explosive,” as J-Lo put it, which is typical for one of her relationships. She admitted that her rapid romance with Marc might have been an attempt to move on from her “heartbreaking” split with Ben Affleck. To quote from her book, “True Love”:
Jennifer tried to convince herself that the decision to marry Marc would be worthwhile in the long run because life is full of surprises. The small voice inside of her had been true; Jennifer and Marc weren’t meant to be, despite the fervor of their romance and the fact that they became parents to twins in 2008.
