Jennifer Lopez Says She Has Never Been 'Truly Loved' in Candid Howard Stern Interview

She describes her latest divorce as a turning point toward therapy-driven growth with a new emphasis on privacy.

Overview

  • Appearing on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show on Oct. 15, Lopez said she has never "truly been loved," though she has truly loved others.
  • She argued past partners were "not capable" of giving that love and reflected that she did not love herself at times.
  • Lopez called her divorce from Ben Affleck "the best thing that ever happened to me," outlining religious coaching, individual and couples therapy, and addiction education she pursued afterward.
  • She joked that exes are "dead to me" and said she intends to keep future relationships much quieter after years of living publicly.
  • Lopez and Affleck remain professionally linked on Kiss of the Spider Woman and reunited at its Oct. 6 New York premiere, with a People source saying a rekindled romance is not in the cards.
