But their seemingly happily-ever-after marriage was not meant to last. It officially ended when Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, bringing to an end their two-year marriage.

Jennifer Lopez doesn’t appear to be wasting much time grieving over her recent divorce. According to In Touch, an insider reveals that Lopez is apparently ready to move on with an unconventional way of getting over her ex-husband – by dating younger men. The source reveals,

She’s already given the go-ahead for these hunks to be auditioned and served up for her. She was very respectful and totally loyal to Ben even after he walked out on her, but now all bets are off. She’s desperate to forget about Ben and get over the anguish he’s put her through, and the best way she can do that is by having some no strings attached fun with hot young guys.

It doesn’t end here. The source reveals that whoever is willing to date Lopez will have to sign NDAs beforehand.

Her ego needs a serious reboot, and being with hot guys is great medicine because they will fawn all over her and make her feel young and sexy and desirable again. She’s in amazing shape and looks fantastic, so it’s not hard for her to find plenty of hunks that want to get with her. They’ll all be vetted and will have to sign NDAs, but after that it’s game on.

It seems like the bitter experience of the divorce has taken a toll on the 55-year-old actress-singer. In an exclusive with Interview magazine, Lopez admitted to feeling “lonely, unfamiliar, scary. It feels sad. It feels desperate.” However, she also said that she “can’t be looking for happiness in other people.”

Although the actual reason for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s divorce is not confirmed, media and fans speculate their busy schedule and Affleck’s struggles with media exposure and alcoholism could be some reasons. As of now, according to the insider’s words, Lopez is not willing to get into something serious.

Drake Made His Move on the Newly Single Jennifer Lopez

Adding another twist to this post-divorce drama, Drake reportedly didn’t lose any time making his move on Lopez. They have been rumored to be dating in 2016-17, and it seems like the Canadian artist would want another shot. An insider told In Touch,

As soon as she filed the papers, Drake reached out. He was very sweet and told her what a fool Ben is for letting her get away, and then he quickly let her know he’s ready and willing to step in and satisfy her.

Their current interaction is mostly through the public domain. However, the source disclosed that they have started exchanging texts lately, and Drake seems to push things faster as “he’s very quick to compliment her” always.

But Lopez is not jumping headfirst into anything serious. The insider adds that while she may appreciate the attention, her “guards are up” as she is aware of Drake’s past, although she considers him a potential candidate for a casual hookup.
