Pop diva Jennifer Lopez
is officially back on the market after splitting from her hubby of seven years Marc Anthony.
Revealing the shock news in a joint statement on their website, the pair confirmed,
“We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision.
“We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time.”
The A-list couple, who wed in June 2004, are parents to three-year-old twins Max and Emme – and had recently even hinted at adding to their brood.
"As soon as I had the babies, I thought to myself, 'I want to do this a thousand more times, I love this. This is life,’” J-Lo, who’s been married twice before - to restaurant owner Ojani Noa and dancer Cris Judd - told Ellen DeGeneres in January.
But while the news of the latino lovely’s latest break-up may come as a surprise to fans – those closest to the songstress insist it’s been on the cards for a while.
“This is not a surprise,” the ‘On The Floor’ star’s stylist Phillip Bloch told the Mail on Sunday.
“Marc is very controlling. In the beginning she liked that because he stood up to her, and in the early days he was very much in love with her and she was with him.”
And the famous duo were reportedly also struggling to agree on whereabouts to raise their family.
“J-Lo’s career is in Hollywood and she wanted to live in their Malibu mansion and Marc loved New York,” Phillip added. “She was going to move to New York in a last-ditch effort to save the marriage. But last Monday I heard it was all over.”
