‘Some old wounds were healed that day and the weight of the past was finally lifted from our shoulders. Full circle, and not the way we planned. Better,’ the Let’s Get Loud hitmaker revealed to fans of hers.

Before their rehearsal dinner, the JLo Beauty founder admitted that she and Ben laughed “the night before about getting married again” at their age.
“We’d both been married before and we’re not exactly kids anymore, but somehow now seemed like the only age that made sense,” she explained.
He went on to tell readers that he was inspired by Rainer Marie Rilke’s poem, Letters to a Young Poet, which is about being ready for love and how ‘giving happiness and love becomes happier than receiving it’.

‘The truth is that everyone’s story is different and we all have our ways to go. No two people are alike. But for us, this was the perfect moment. Lopez added, nodding in agreement after rekindling in April 2021 after nearly 20 years apart.
The Hustlers actress continued: “Nothing felt more right to me, and I knew we were finally settling down in a way you can only do when you understand loss and joy and are proven enough to never take important things for granted or let Let the silly, petty annoyances of the day get in the way of embracing every precious moment.
‘We find ourselves in that much-desired time in life: to be grateful for all that life has shown us, including its trials and tribulations. That night really was paradise,’ he marveled.
