Sources close to Jennifer Lopez said she’s facing a lot of emotional pain but is determined to show she’s strong and resilient. Lately, an increase in her fitness routine has led to rumors of a ‘revenge body,’ hinting that the 55-year-old is focusing her energy on transforming her physique. “She can’t stand the idea that people think she’s sitting home alone crying over Ben,” a source told Life & Style mag.  

Even though she seems confident on the outside, insiders described a different reality. “She forces herself to face the world looking nonchalant, but she’s hurting on the inside,” the source added. This claim matches what sources told In Touch Weekly, which is that Lopez has been trying to stay strong and keep a “brave face” despite everything. Another worrying part of the situation is how JLo’s personal relationships are holding up. A source added: 

She never expected to be spending her summer alone. This isn’t where she thought she’d be at this point in her life. She surrounds herself with her entourage — and everyone’s on the payroll. It’s doubtful she has any real friends at this point.

Here the insider questioned the truth of Ain’t Your Mama singer’s friendships, hinting that her circle might be more about business than real support.
