Jennifer Lopez proved divorce has nothing on her, showing off her age-defying features in new photos from her post-Ben Affleck era. The superstar made headlines in August after the confirmation of the end of her fourth marriage after barely two years. Before the big reveal, rumors of Ben and Jennifer’s jump to Splitsville had already run wild, with both parties dismissing attempts to unveil the actual status of their union for months. Amid the divorce drama, insiders have expressed concern for the crooner, claiming her fourth divorce hit her so hard that she’s embracing certain self-destructive behavior as a coping mechanism.
However, Jennifer Lopez reflected the opposite in her latest social media post, turning to positive self-affirmations to keep her grounded in the wake of her Ben-Affleck divorce. Via Instagram on Friday, the star shared a handful of photos flaunting her age-defying beauty in a white tank top and denim, proving she’s still got it at 55.
Jennifer Lopez Says She’s Amazing in Post-Divorce Snaps
In the photos, Jennifer Lopez looked fierce in her simple ensemble and glam makeup, her coffee-brown locks cascading down her shoulders. For the first shot, the star posed with her arms behind her head, maintaining a fierce appearance. Next, she posed with both thumbs tucked into her denim pockets, with a wide smile plastered on her face. She kept up the genuine smile in subsequent pics, offering a more close-up look at her ageless face and busty chest area in the final snap. Jennifer accompanied the photo dump with a powerful ode to herself, a much-needed reminder of her self-worth in the face of her highly-publicized divorce. She wrote,
“I will never get tired of saying how amazing she is! 😍 She always manages to leave you speechless.”
Fans utilized the comment section to pay compliments to the stunning beauty, acknowledging she was indeed amazing regardless of naysayers’ opinions. Many also commended her ageless looks and youthful glow despite being in her mid-50s. One fan commented,
“22 years and still Jenny from the block.”
Another wrote,
“Keep glowing and growing mama.”
A third added,
“Never let anybody take away your shine.”
Another wrote,
“The smile of perfection. I’m beyond proud of how far you have come this year.”
Jennifer Musters Strength Despite Difficult Year
Notably, it’s been a whirlwind year for Jennifer Lopez between promoting her latest album, bringing a blockbuster movie to life, and carrying on her entrepreneurial endeavors, all while dealing with her divorce from Ben Affleck and the resulting publicity. Yet, the star has handled it all gracefully, even with numerous comments preying on her history of four divorces. The end of her marriage to Ben especially took its toll, given the publicity the resurrection of Bennifer 2.0 attracted.
Sources claim Jennifer Lopez finds the entire ordeal “humiliating” and blames Ben Affleck for it. According to them, the Green Lantern actor orchestrated their reconnection, and she fell into the spell believing it was all real. After making a big deal about Ben “being the love of her life,” the 51-year-old only ended up hurting her, leaving the crooner feeling furious and humiliated. Good to see JLo embracing the positive side of life after such a huge blow to her ego.
