This summer, Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from her husband of two years, Ben Affleck. According to a source speaking with Us Weekly, Lopez has been adjusting to life without Affleck and is “enjoying being single.”
“She’s enjoying being single and is feeling herself,” said the insider, adding that she has “no regrets.”
“She was very in love with Ben, but love isn’t enough sometimes,” the source shared. “Things worked out for the best and how they were supposed to.”
J.Lo is “having fun” while she is “working on some big movie projects and enjoying showing how amazing she looks.”
The actress’s new film Unstoppable was scheduled to premiere in Los Angeles on January 7, but the event was delayed due to the wildfires across the city. The movie was produced by Affleck in conjunction with his friend and collaborator Matt Damon’s production company, Artists Equity.
Lopez recently said similar things to the source about her healing process in a December interview with British Vogue, sharing how she approaches “hardships.”
“I think the way I overcome things is not by thinking of them as happening to me but happening for me and what is the lesson that needs to be learned in the moment,” the star explained. “When I think of things that way and stay in a kind of a more positive mindset about it, it’s easier to kind of embrace it for the lesson that it is.”
She continued, “Because that’s really what our hardships are in life. What am I supposed to learn here? There are no coincidences. This is not happening, you know, just randomly. It’s happening for a reason.”
Lopez added, “What can I learn and how can I come out the other side better, stronger, more knowledgeable and kind of evolve and grow from this point?”
