The love life of J-Lo at a glance
Don’t be fooled by the rock that she’s got, because that huge engagement ring can go in the trash. I officially no longer believe in love: J-Lo and A-rod (as if the names were made for each other) will now only go through life as friends.
By the way, it’s impressive how Jen does that. Almost all her exes have nothing bad to say about the singer and even want to remain friends. Interesting. Is it time for a trip down memory lane? All the men, fiancés, and boyfriends who have passed by.
Alex Rodriguez (engaged from 2017 to 2021)
Things had been rocky for a while. The wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, and a few months ago rumors surfaced that Alex had cheated on Jennifer with Madison LeCroy, although A-Rod denied ever having seen the woman. The couple later stated they wanted to work on their problems, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough. On Thursday, the two announced in a joint statement that they have ended their engagement.
“We have realized that we are better off as friends and look forward to remaining that way,” the statement reads. The former couple says they ‘will continue to work together and support each other in shared businesses and projects.’ And that they ‘wish the best for each other and for each other’s children.’.
Drake (fling in 2016)
At the end of 2016, rumors circulated that J.Lo had ‘a thing’ with Drake. She denied the rumors on Ellen Degeneres in February 2017 and said they had just worked together on a song and that they were just ‘hanging out’ in the photos that were published on Instagram. Yesssssss.

Marc Anthony (married for 7 years from 2004 to 2011)
Her great love. The father of her two children, Maximilian and Emme. It’s a shame it didn’t work out in the end. Jen told Sunday TODAY that Marc always supported her career. “When I was married to him, he really helped me with my self-confidence, and he saw where I was struggling. I am still grateful to him for his encouraging words.”
Ben Affleck (two years engaged from 2002 to 2004)
Ahh. Bennifer. This was the ultimate couple, right? The two lovebirds met on the set of Gigli in 2002 and got engaged less than a year later. In 2004, they called off the wedding again. However, Ben told The Hollywood Reporter in 2012 that they still keep in touch. ‘We don’t have a relationship where we knock on each other’s doors for advice, but we do have a bond where we wish each other the best and can also email each other with: ‘Oh, your movie looks great.’ I remember getting a jury role in American Idol. I sent her then, ‘This is really smart. Good luck.’
Cris Judd (married for 9 months from 2001 to 2002)
J.Lo’s second husband was dancer and choreographer Cris Judd, with whom she was married for only nine months from 2001 to 2002. They met on the set of her music video ‘Love Don’t Cost a Thing,’ which Judd directed. Ultimately, the stress from the paparazzi put pressure on their relationship.
Puff Daddy (boyfriend from 1999 to 2001)
Jen and Puff started dating around the release of J.Lo’s debut album On The 6. Fun fact: they were once arrested together. Their relationship was reportedly quite turbulent and full of infidelity, which ultimately led to the breakup. “I had a relationship with Puff where I was almost always crying and going crazy. The relationship really cost me my whole life; I was in such a downward spiral,” J.Lo said in an interview in 2003. “I never caught him cheating, but I just knew. He would often go ‘to the club for a few hours’ and then not come home that same night. Ouch.
Ojani Noa (married for 11 months in 1998)
J.Lo met her first husband, Ojani Noa (an aspiring artist), when he was a waiter in a restaurant in Miami in the late 1990s. Not much is known about their relationship after they divorced in January 1998 after 11 months of marriage.
