How are Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez still together?


Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have been seen fighting recently and the NY Post speculates that their marriage is in trouble:

. “There was a fight on New Year’s Eve,” said a source who saw Lopez that night. Another spy said, “There was a fight after she performed at the Super Bowl, and when she had an album-listening party in Miami two months ago, there was an issue.” According to this source, Lopez stood up and talked about her upcoming album and said, “This is my dream and Marc and I worked so hard on this album . . . Marc, would you like to say something?” – to which Anthony coldly said, “No,” and looked away. One of the issues is that Lopez is said to be putting off pregnancy – he has four kids with two other women – and Anthony is very interested in Scientology. But a friend of both said, “They fight, sure, but everyone fights.” A rep for Lopez said, “They’re fine.”

Given the track record of these two cheaters, I’m surprised their marriage lasted this long. This is Lopez’s third husband, and she burned through the other two in about a year each. She’s been with Anthony for two and a half years now, they married in June, 2004. Isn’t their time just about up?

Marc Anthony left his first wife and the mother of two of his children, former miss Universe Dayanara Torres, for Lopez. He had just obtained a quickie divorce when he turned around and married J.Lo. He coincidentally had a new album out that same week.

Rumor has it that Anthony is pressuring Lopez to join the Scientology cult to make more inroads with her acting career, but that she’s hesitating.

Here are pictures of Lopez and Marc Anthony performing at the Viva Romance concert in Miami on March 3rd. I published them earlier, but what the hell. Pictures [via]

    Maybe she should get rid of Anthony and see if Tom Brady can get her pregnant? At least they would make a better looking couple – and she already knows her way around Boston.
    She could drop in on Ben’s mom and look at pictures of her grand daughter.

    Isn’t calling J.Lo a cheater just a bit harsh? I think P.Diddy and Bennifer lasted more than a year. But I just want my girl J.Lo to be happy with whoever she wants.

    What is with the black tights?!?!? Total fug.
    But I do give her props for not getting implants. Small boobs rule!

    I don’t think she’s a cheater, she’s just been cheated on alot. I find that so weird for someone that’s considered to be so beautiful. She does want kids but it’s been really hard for her to get pregnant. When she was w/ Ben she was taking hormone shots but nothing happend. As for the fighting everyone fights. No relationship is perfect and if it was then it would be boring. And there would never be any make-up sex 😛

    Poorly styled paradise, indeed. I do believe that hairpiece started it’s life on a shih-tzu’s butt. And why did she skin a Fraggle to make that jacket?

    Seriously, what happened to the style icon? While I don’t always love what she wears, she usually does better than a Jersey stripper.

    The New York Post is the same outfit insisting Jennifer was pregnant three years ago when she married Marc. Wrong. I’m tired of these anonymous sources. Sky’s the limit and nothing can be verified.

    All I know is I’m looking forward to the release of her Spanish album next week and their movie is hitting theaters this summer. Both must be making someone (and their agent) nervous.

    Marc and Jennifer first dated in the late 90’s. He fell in love with her. He also thanked her for inspiring the songs in his 1999 English album (she is ”Lola” in the Liner Notes). Her feelings were more platonic at the time, but they stayed on good terms.

    In 2000 Marc and Dayanara were married. After two separations (first in 2002) and two weddings, there were accusations that Marc had fathered the newborn of a Miami waitress. They split up again (October 2003) and took up separate residences. Dayanara filed for divorce in January 2004.

    Then Dayanara started to forget about the waitress, although results from paternity tests weren’t complete. Her children were displayed for a curious public, and a studio audience, while she was crying on the shoulder of a talk show host.

    Why was the waitress and her baby forgotten? Maybe because their 15 minutes with the media was almost up. Why not blame everything on Jennifer Lopez, the friend that Marc still held a soft spot for?

    But Jen was involved with someone else, each of the times the Anthonys had separated. Despite all the rumors, she wasn’t pregnant either. It wasn’t Marc (or Jennifer) who publicized their wedding or tipped off the paparazzi flying overhead snapping photos.

    The fictional version of the failing marriage, the one the public was fed, provided Dayanara with two benefits. It maintained her faultless Miss Universe image (while she herself has dated men who’ve been separated). The strategy also helped broaden a sympathetic image for her in the mind of the general public.

    Following up on my earlier post:
    In August 2004 a leading DNA lab confirmed earlier paternity test results – that Marc Anthony is not the father of a Miami waitress’ child.
