It has been a year since Jennifer Lopez officially filed for divorce from Hollywood star Ben Affleck, and the global superstar seems to have fully embraced her new chapter in life.
According to insiders, the 56-year-old singer, actress, and businesswoman is happier than ever following her split from the Gone Girl actor. A source told PEOPLE, “She’s been having the time of her life this summer.”
Lopez has spent the past several months balancing her professional commitments with international performances. She recently wrapped her Up All Night Tour, which took her to arenas across the globe. The insider added, “She loved connecting with fans all over the world. The tour was amazing. It’s been a great focus for her. She’s been doing what she really enjoys.”
Beyond music, Jennifer Lopez is also preparing for a major film release. Her upcoming movie musical, Kiss of the Spider Woman, is set to hit theaters on October 10. Interestingly, Lopez filmed the project last year in New York, during a period when her marriage to Affleck was reportedly facing challenges. The source noted, “She’s come a long way since then. She’s very happy and just grateful for her life.”
Her most recent film appearance was in Unstoppable, a wrestling biopic produced by Affleck and longtime collaborator Matt Damon. Despite their professional ties, Lopez and Affleck’s personal relationship could not withstand ongoing difficulties.
The pair, who tied the knot in Georgia in August 2022, sparked months of speculation about marital troubles before Lopez filed for divorce on August 20, 2024—exactly two years after their wedding. Their divorce was finalized in early January 2025.
Now, Lopez is focused on her career and personal happiness. With a successful world tour behind her and a highly anticipated movie ahead, JLo appears to be thriving as she moves forward, leaving behind one of Hollywood’s most high-profile romances.
