JLo Ends THAT Tense Grammy Exchange With Ben Affleck
Jennifer Lopez has done everything she can to put an end to THAT tense Grammy exchange with husband Ben Affleck.
Taking to Instagram on Monday, Jennifer, 53, shared a video of the glamorous night and wrote a direct message to accompany the images.
She wrote: “Always the best time with my love, my husband.”

Despite her positive post, the sentiment did not win over fans.
