Jennifer Lopez‘s recent behavior is cause for alarm for some of the I’m Real hitmaker’s closest pals. The singer’s friends feel that her divorce from Ben Affleck and the drama building over Sean Diddy Combs‘ arrest are too much for her to handle. Her pals think she is picking up some bad habits to help her cope, and she is on the verge of losing control.
Despite the heartbreak from her split with Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez is putting on a brave face for the public. Her closest friends, however, are concerned that beneath this facade, JLo is struggling. The pain of her divorce is, at times, overwhelming, but she continues to fight.
Insiders close to Jennifer tell Radar Online that not only is JLo dealing with a humiliating public divorce, but she is also in a state of panic over her ex-Sean Diddy Combs’ recent arrest. Lately, they have noticed that Jen has been drinking daily to help ease some of her stress, and they are getting worried about her.
“She used to only drink socially, but not it’s a bigger part of her daily routine and the cocktails she mixes up are apparently lethally strong. She appears to be self-medicating and unable to handle the raw reality of this divorce without some type of pick-me-up” reveals the JLo source.

JLo’s pals know that the Ben Affleck breakup has destroyed the singer. “He’s left her totally wrecked.” She tries to hold it all together but is completely shattered deep down. The source adds that Jennifer hoped she and Ben would resolve their marital issues. However, Ben threw in the towel and is eager to settle the divorce and move on with his new life.
Jennifer Lopez’s friends are deeply worried about her recent drinking habits. The singer, who had previously avoided alcohol for years, is now at risk of developing a dangerous habit. Their concern continues to mount, and they are desperate to help her.
“She’s really struggling emotionally right now, and the big worry among her friends is that she’s using alcohol as a crutch. J Lo’s saying a few drinks to take the edge off is the least she deserves, which is a fair point – but it seems so out of character.”
Her inner circle also worries that all the bad press about her past involvement with Diddy raises her stress level. This couldn’t come at a worse time for JLo. They believe that pulling her into the rapper’s legal issues in her already fragile state will send her right off the deep end.
