Jennifer Lopez has made a buzzworthy return to social media following her divorce filing from Ben Affleck. On Friday, August 23, the 55-year-old Atlas star took to her Instagram Stories, reposting a dazzling selfie. Eagle-eyed fans quickly noticed something unusual in the picture: is there a hidden message in J. Lo’s post? Fans are on high alert, and the internet is buzzing with theories.
Jennifer Lopez is turning heads as she steps back into the spotlight amid her divorce from Ben Affleck. On Friday, Aug. 23, the superstar shared a glamorous selfie on her Instagram Stories—her first post since filing for divorce earlier that week, coinciding with what would have been the couple’s second wedding anniversary.
In the captivating snapshot, Lopez, exudes confidence with voluminous honey blonde curls and flawless makeup. Draped in a pale pink, fuzzy tracksuit, she looks radiant and at ease, despite the personal upheaval. The festive scene is completed with a lit-up Christmas tree in the background.
Interestingly, fans quickly identified the image as a repost from a fan account, speculating that it was originally taken during a December 2020 hair-and-makeup session with celebrity stylist Chris Appleton. In the original post, Appleton celebrated the look with the caption, “Ending the year with a bang ✨.”
The timing and choice of the photo have sparked intrigue. The choice to resurface this particular photo now has sparked speculation. Is Lopez sending a message with this glam throwback as she steps into a new chapter of her life?
However, as the picture went viral, comments underneath the post began to resurface, and many were surprisingly harsh on the star. One user commented, “Ending the year? It’s only August! Anyway, way to raise unrealistic beauty standards with filters,” pointing out the confusion over the timing and critiquing the use of filters. Another commenter added, “What’s on the inside is what counts, J. Lo,” hinting that during such a challenging time, she should focus more on her inner self rather than her outward appearance.
Many commenters went beyond the surface beauty of the photos and touched on the recent divorce announcement. One user remarked, “Two sides to every coin/story. It almost always lies somewhere in between. I love me some J. Lo, always have. There is a reason both of them can’t hold down a good relationship,” suggesting deeper issues behind the split. Another comment bluntly stated, “She loves the publicity more than Ben,” hinting at Lopez’s supposed preference for the spotlight over her relationship.
These reactions underscore the mixed feelings some fans have about the star’s personal life, especially in light of her high-profile divorce.
Here’s the heartbreaking reason why Jennifer and Ben Affleck divorced.
Reality has now emerged about Carrie Underwood’s significant other
Carrie Underwood and husband Mike Fisher make a perfect celebrity couple. The pair tied the knot in 2010 in a dreamy wedding in Georgia.
The winner of the fourth season of American Idol and the Ottawa Senators hockey player at a backstage meet-and-greet following one of her concerts. Carrie’s initial reaction to Mike was “hot, hot, hot.”
Their relationship was challenging at the beginning because Carrie resided in Nashville while Mike lived in Canada at the time.
“I mean, can I make dating more difficult?” the Grammy Award winner once said during an episode of VH1’s Behind the Music. “Let’s get a hockey guy who lives in another country. Awesome.”
The two stayed in touch through phone calls before meeting again in person around three months following their initial meeting.
In her songs, Carrie often sings about heartbreak, but her real love life can’t be any better.
Speaking to People, she once said, “I feel like he is the person I was meant to be with.”
In their 2020 docuseries, Mike and Carrie: God & Country, the songstress and the athlete admitted to facing several highs and lows in their marriage.
“We learn from each other and have spirited discussions about things that we disagree on, but at the end of the day, we love each other very much,” she said in an episode.
However, no matter the challenges, the couple learned how to communicate through their differences.
The couple share two children together, Isaiah, born in 2015, and Jacob, born in 2019.
“I love my role as a mom and wife. In addition to what I get to do onstage, I go to baseball practice,” Carrie shared in a May 2023 interview with Vegas Magazine. “It’s wonderfully ordinary, and I love that. In a lot of ways, I lead a double life. I’m mom at home, and then I fly away to Vegas or to go on tour.”
Of course, when she’s busy touring, she gets a lot of help from Mike who’s taking care of the kids.
Back in 2017, she experienced a fall and broke her wrist. It was a tough period which Carrie says wouldn’t have been able to overcome easily had it not been for her husband.
“He is so levelheaded about everything, and when I was dealing with everything, not just emotionally but hormonally, when you’re going on that roller coaster of pregnant, not pregnant, pregnant, not pregnant, I was probably not very easy to love, to be honest,” she shared with People. “And to have somebody so even-keeled, he was my lifeline, keeping me grounded.”
The couple celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary last year and they are still going strong.
