Jennifer Lopez has been at the center of divorce rumors with husband Ben Affleck for months. While the couple hasn’t publicly commented on the state of their marriage, it’s believed that they’re on the rocks and headed for a permanent split. Meanwhile, sources claim that JLo is trying to figure out the next steps in her life, and she’s been leaning on her former flame, rapper Drake, while doing so.
It was previously reported that Jennifer Lopez was considering a move back to New York amid her issues with Ben Affleck. The singer was said to be reminiscing about the good times with her former fiance, Alex Rodriguez, in the Big Apple. However, it’s Drake that is allegedly helping her through the difficult issues she’s currently facing, per Heat World.

“Jen’s been leaning on Drake over the last few weeks after he reached out to offer his support,” an insider revealed. He’s helping her get through what’s been one of the toughest times in her life. Drake’s been vocal about his mental health struggles and is currently taking some time out to focus on his own wellbeing, so knowing how in tune he is with his emotional health makes Jen feel very comfortable about being vulnerable and open with him.”
JLo and Drake have a longstanding friendship. The duo have been on each other’s radar for more than a decade. There have been rumors that they’ve had a fling in the past. The two even shared a cuddling PDA photo on Instagram, reports Capital Xtra. They were also seen partying together while kissing and dancing.
However, their relationship didn’t last long and the pair eventually went their separate ways. Meanwhile, it seems that Drake didn’t forget about his time with Jennifer Lopez. After the pair’s split, the rapper shouted the singer out in a song. “2010 was when I lost my halo, 2017, I lost a JLo,” he stated.
Jennifer Lopez and Drake haven’t been publicly spotted together since the news of her divorce drama with Ben Affleck. However, if JLo finds herself single soon, all eyes will be on the singer to see if she’ll rekindle her spark with the rapper.
