JLo declares her ‘love’ for famous actor amid divorce from Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez surprised by making a declaration of “love” to famous actor Ralph Fiennes, with whom she co-starred in the movie “Maid in Manhattan”.

The actress’ loving words come nearly five months after TMZ reports she filed for divorce from Ben Affleck after less than two years of marriage.

Jennifer Lopez expresses her “love” for Ralph Fiennes

On Saturday, January 4, Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes attended the Variety Creative Impact Awards, where she was presented with the “Legend and Groundbreakers” award.

The “On the Floor” singer addressed the meeting, held at the Parker Palm Springs, in an emotional “post” on her Instagram account later.

“I can’t thank you enough, Ralph Fiennes, for your kind words and meeting our little ‘Maid in Manhattan’ today. “It was great to see you,” she wrote.

The ‘Selena’ star also shared that the Brit made her cry with what he said to her before giving her the award.

“I love you. Thank you so much… Working with you has been one of the highlights of my career so far,” he expressed.

I say ‘until now’ because I hope to do it again one day for ‘Maid in Manhattan 2’… You never know…” he concluded his letter.

According to the video posted by the “Bronx Diva” on the digital platform, speaking about her, the actor recalled that she started her career “early”.

“He values ​​and fulfills her extraordinary creative spirit and shares it, lighting up the lives of so many people, inspiring them and brightening their days,” he said.

Did Jennifer Lopez “set up” Ralph Fiennes for Ben Affleck?

In November 2022, Ralph Fiennes revealed during his participation in the program “Watch what happens live” that Jennifer Lopez used him as “bait” to hide her first relationship with Ben Affleck.

“Yeah, yeah, they set me up,” she said, explaining that she, her “manager and her agent” invited him to dinner at the Cipriani Downtown restaurant in New York.

After what he describes as “a nice dinner,” Fiennes says he gave Jennifer a kiss on the cheek goodbye as a paparazzi snapped pictures of them.

“Somehow, the pictures were taken at an angle that when she leaves, it looks like I’m walking behind her. I think the next day he was telling The [New York] Post: “It’s Ralph!” he said.

This would have been sometime in 2002, the year that, according to Us Weekly, ‘Bennifer’ started dating after meeting on the set of ‘Gigli’.
