About Jennifer Lopez

Today, let us talk about the heart favorite of alls. She has had high profile relationships with Ojani Noa Sean Combs Cris Judd Ben Affleck and Marc Anthony. Starting in 1984 when Lopez was 15 and in high school she began dating David Cruz. They split up in 1994 but remained close; Lopez said in 2004 He s a friend and he probably knows me better than anyone else.

Lopez s first marriage was to Cuban born Ojani Noa on February 22 1997. Lopez met Noa while he worked as a waiter at a Miami restaurant. They divorced in January 1998. Lopez later employed Noa as the manager of her Pasadena restaurant Madre s in April 2002 but he was fired in October 2002. After Noa sued Lopez over the termination they drew up a confidentiality agreement. In April 2006 Lopez sued to prevent Noa from publishing a book containing personal details about their marriage contending it violated their confidentiality agreement.In August 2007 a court appointed arbitrator issued a permanent injunction forbidding Ojani Noa from criticizing denigrating casting in a negative light or otherwise disparaging Lopez. She was awarded $545000 in compensatory damages which included nearly $300000 in legal fees and almost $48000 in arbitration costs. Arbitration cost are the cost which is to be paid by the order of 3^rd person. Noa was also ordered to hand over all copies of materials related to the book to Lopez or her attorney. In November 2009 Lopez sued Noa for breach of contract and invasion of privacy citing a previous confidentiality agreement between the two to prevent Noa from releasing his planned film How I Married Jennifer Lopez: 

The JLo and Ojani Noa Story and alleged previously unseen home video footage. On December 1 2009 judge James Chalfant granted a temporary injunction against Noa and his agent Ed Meyer barring them from distributing the footage in any forum. Lopez s lawyer said that he will return to court to make it permanent stressing that there wasn t anything even close to a sex tape in Noa s possession: It s private and personal but it wasn t a sex tape. They are innocent and they have been misrepresented... to increase value and media attention. After the hearing Noa told E! that he plans to fight the injunction: It s not about the money it s about my life.

Lopez next had a 2½ year relationship with hip hop mogul Sean Combs. On December 27 1999 Lopez and Combs were at Club New York a midtown Manhattan nightclub when gunfire erupted between Combs  entourage and another group. Lopez and Combs were being driven away from the scene when they were chased and stopped by the police. A gun was found in the front seat of their vehicle. Combs was charged with felony gun possession. Stress over Combs  trial and pursuit by the press multiplied their problems and Lopez terminated her involvement with Combs one year later. During a related civil suit in 2008 the plaintiff s lawyer said Lopez had nothing to contribute to the case.

Her second marriage was to her former backup dancer Cris Judd. She met Judd while filming the music video for her single Love Don t Cost a Thing. The two were married on September 29 2001 at a home in the L.A. suburbs. Their marriage effectively ended in June 2002 when Lopez began publicly dating Ben Affleck. They were divorced in January 2003.

Her relationship with Affleck was highly publicized with the media dubbing the couple Bennifer. Lopez announced her engagement to Affleck in November 2002 after Affleck gave her a six carat pink diamond ring worth a reported $1.2 million. Lopez promised interviewers that Affleck was indeed the one and that they would soon have a family. The marriage planned for September 14 2003 in Santa Barbara California was called off just hours before the event. They announced the end of their engagement in January 2004. Their relationship was parodied on the South Park episode Fat Butt and Pancake Head which aired on April 16 2003. In 2003 Lopez and Affleck acted together in the film Gigli and in the 2004 film Jersey Girl. He also appeared in her Jenny from the Block video.

Less than two months after her break up with Affleck Lopez was seen with singer Marc Anthony a long time friend with whom she had worked in music videos. They had briefly dated in the late 1990s before his first marriage and her second. Lopez and Anthony were recording a duet together in early 2004 for Lopez s then upcoming film Shall We Dance?. In October 2003 Anthony became separated for the second time from his first wife former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres with whom he has two children. Torres filed for divorce three months later. Lopez and Anthony married in a quiet home wedding on June 5 2004 four days after his divorce from Torres was final.

Lopez s guests had been invited to an afternoon party at Lopez s house and had not been made aware that they were actually going to her wedding. The couple had planned not to publicize their marriage early on allowing more privacy and time together in an otherwise intrusive environment. Days after the wedding Anthony refused to comment on their marriage during interviews which were scheduled earlier to promote a new album Amar Sin Mentiras To Love Without Lies. In February 2005 Lopez confirmed the marriage and added that everyone knows. It s not a secret. A few months later Anthony s daughter Ariana appeared at the end of Lopez s music video Get Right as her little sister. Regarding his marriage and family life Anthony maintains a private and sometimes defensive stance with the media which has influenced Lopez to set some boundaries with interviewers.

On November 7 2007 the last night of her En Concierto tour Lopez confirmed she was expecting her first child with husband Marc. The announcement ended months of speculation over the pregnancy. Her father later confirmed on February 5 2008 that she was expecting twins. Lopez gave birth on February 22 2008 to fraternal twins a girl and a boy Emme Maribel Muniz and Maximilian Max David Muniz. The twins were introduced in the March 11 2008 issue of People magazine for which the magazine paid $6 million.

As of at least January 2008 Lopez lives with her family in Brookville New York on Long Island. Her mother Guadalupe Lopez moved into the gated home in June that year. On July 15 2011 following seven years of marriage to Anthony the couple s representative told US Weekly that their marriage was over and as painful as it would be for all those involved the couple were separating. In September 2011 Lopez purchased a home in the Hamptons for $18 million. The home is very fabulous and deserve to have Jennifer Lopez within it.
