Jennifer Lopez is trying to remain positive amid her divorce from Ben Affleck.
On Friday, a source close to the 55-year-old actress told People that “this has been one of the hardest years for Jennifer,” all because her marriage to the actor ended after only two years — something she never wanted to happen. The Hustlers star “didn’t want to file for divorce” back in August in the first place… but eventually realized it was what she needed to do. The insider said:
“She just felt like she had no choice. Nothing was gonna change with Ben. She was very upset about it.”
Divorce is never easy, even after going through it three times before. It’s even more difficult when you’re ending things with a person you thought you were finally getting your fairytale ending with. They were supposed to be endgame!

However, rather than dwelling on what could have been, what is the Do It Well singer doing? She’s saying thanks for the memories and moving on with her life! The source continued:
“But true to her positive outlook on life, she’s moving forward with optimism. Instead of feeling like she’s fallen flat on her face, she sees it was meant to be. She’s taking time for herself right now. She knows she lives a privileged life in so many ways. She’s very grateful for all the beautiful memories with Ben, but she’s now focused on creating the best future for herself and her kids.”
Good for Jennifer! What a great attitude to have! Hopefully, she will continue to feel this way as she and Ben continue the divorce process! Reactions, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments!
