Ultra-Emotional Jennifer Lopez Confesses Axing Her Tour Was 'Best Thing' She's Done in Wake of Ben Affleck Divorce — Before Weeping on Chat Show
Nov. 8 2024, Published 10:09 a.m. ET
Jennifer Lopez has admitted scrapping her tour in the wake of her split from Ben Affleck was the "best thing" she’s ever done.
RadarOnline.com can reveal the superstar singer, 55, made the revelation while appearing on a UK chat show, where she also told about an incident which sparked her to break down in tears the previous day.
Lopez, who announced her split from husband Affleck, 52, in August after two years of marriage, cancelled her This Is Me... Live concerts in May, telling fans at the time she was "heartsick and devastated" to "let them down", before later confirming in divorce proceedings the couple had split the previous month.
A statement at the time read that Jennifer was retreating from the spotlight "to be with her children" and speaking on Friday's Graham Norton show she said: "I took the summer off to be home with the kids, which is the best thing I have ever done."
Lopez, who shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, continued: "It was not like me to do that, so I always want to apologise to the fans."
The Jenny From The Block singer then recalled how she met a fan the day before her chat show appearance, who revealed he'd bought a seat to one of her now axed gigs.
She said: "(He) came up to me and said, ‘I had tickets to come and see you.' When I apologised, he said "Don't say sorry we love you'. I started crying straight away."
Lopez was then emotional when it was revealed the fan was actually in the studio audience as she gasped: "Was that you? I don't believe it."
