Jennifer Lopez still has goodwill toward Ben Affleck.
As someone who’s seen a lot of relationships come and go, I always tell people to look for the positives, even during tough times. And honestly, it’s been amazing to see how one recent split actually led to something incredible! The singer – you might remember she and the *Argo* actor finalized their divorce earlier this year – shared that he was a huge support in getting her dream project off the ground: the film adaptation of *Kiss of the Spider Woman*. It’s a beautiful example of how even after a relationship ends, you can still build something wonderful with someone.
And playing the titular role was “100%” a refuge for J.Lo when their romance was on the rocks.
She explained to CBS Sunday Morning that filming was a mixed experience. “It was difficult to focus on anything else,” she said, “but it was both the best and worst time of my life. I was incredibly happy while on set, but things were tough when I returned home.”
Jennifer, 56, explained that she struggled with accepting the situation at first, but ultimately overcame it. She believes it was a turning point in her life and actually a positive experience.
Honestly, hearing her talk about it just sends shivers down my spine! She said it completely changed her, helped her *grow* as a person, and become so much more self-aware. It’s like… she’s not even the same person she was a year ago! It’s incredible to witness, truly. I just… I can’t get over how much she’s evolved.
Jennifer, who has 17-year-old twins Max and Emme with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, said she had the best summer of her life.
She said she had a wonderful time and felt thankful for the people around her, which allowed her to relax and enjoy things more freely.
Even though Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are no longer together, she acknowledges how much he helped her while they worked side-by-side as executive producers on the film *Kiss of the Spider Woman*.
She explained that the movie simply wouldn’t exist without his support and the funding from Artist Equity. She emphasized she’ll always be grateful to him for providing the necessary financing.
She remembered telling him she felt like this role was meant for her and that she really wanted it. He agreed and then worked to make it a reality.
