Lopez began by acknowledging the public nature of her past relationship with Affleck, a union that captivated the world’s attention and was famously dubbed “Bennifer.”

She spoke of the highs and lows they experienced together, from the euphoria of their whirlwind romance and high-profile engagement to the crushing disappointment of their eventual split. “We were young, we were in love, and we were under this incredible microscope,” Lopez reflected. “It was a lot to handle, for both of us.”

However, it was when the conversation turned to Garner that Lopez’s tone shifted, her voice tinged with a mix of frustration and hurt. She expressed her bewilderment over the close relationship that developed between Garner and Affleck following their respective divorces.

“I never imagined that we would end up in this situation,” Lopez confessed. “To see him with her, to see them as a family… it’s been really hard for me to accept.”

Lopez went on to detail instances where she felt Garner had crossed boundaries, particularly in their interactions involving their children. “She’s always been so involved, even after the divorce,” Lopez said, her voice tightening.

“I understand she loves her kids, but it feels like there’s this unspoken competition, this need to prove that she’s the better parent. It’s exhausting and it’s unfair.”

Despite her anger, Lopez made it clear that her feelings are not driven by jealousy but rather by a deep sense of betrayal. “We were supposed to support each other, to be there for each other through the tough times,” she explained. “But it feels like she’s always been against me, like she’s never wanted me to be happy with Ben.”

The interview took an even more emotional turn when Lopez spoke about her own struggles with motherhood and the pressure she feels to be the perfect parent to her twins, Max and Emme. “Being a mom is the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” she admitted, her eyes welling up with tears.

“To see someone else stepping into that role with my children… it’s a pain that words can’t describe.”

As the interview came to a close, Lopez expressed a desire for closure, for a chance to heal the wounds that have festered for so long. “I’m not asking for her to like me or for us to be best friends,” she said softly. “I just want us to be able to coexist peacefully, for the sake of our children. I’m tired of being angry. I’m ready to move on.”

JLo’s candid revelations have undoubtedly sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry and among her fans, offering a rare glimpse into the private struggles and emotions that lie beneath her glamorous public persona. As the world processes her words, one thing is clear: the journey towards healing and forgiveness for Jennifer Lopez is far from over, but with this interview, she has taken the first, painful step towards confronting her past and moving forward.
