Jennifer Lopez recently disclosed that both she and her husband, Ben Affleck, are grappling with PTSD resulting from the intense media scrutiny during their initial relationship phase. In an interview with Variety, she revealed their struggles, emphasizing that their upcoming album and film, “This Is Me… Now,” delves into their rekindled romance but admits feeling anxious about putting their personal lives in the spotlight once more.

Lopez  and artists

Despite this nervousness, Lopez expressed maturity and a newfound perspective, noting their evolved understanding of life’s true priorities and the insignificance of others’ opinions. Lopez emphasized the importance of authenticity for artists, acknowledging the unconventional path they’ve chosen and the necessity of following their hearts.

Affleck partially scripted the film

Their upcoming film, partially scripted by Affleck and featuring a letter he wrote to her in 2002, remains enigmatic, described by Lopez as a ‘musical experience’ that must be seen and felt to be understood.

Their relationship, originally kindled on the set of “Gigli” in 2003, faced considerable challenges due to media attention and the failure of the film at the box office. This scrutiny turned their relationship into tabloid fodder, contributing to their eventual breakup in 2003, following the cancellation of their wedding.

Reignited romance in 2021

Both Lopez and Affleck went on to have marriages and children with other partners. Lopez married and divorced Marc Anthony, sharing twins Max and Emme. Meanwhile, Affleck shares three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner—Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel.
