Where Jennifer Lopez and Leah stand after Ben Affleck fallout



Leah Remini revealed where she and Jennifer Lopez stand after their fallout over Ben Affleck.

The “King of Queens” alum shared that she and the pop star started communicating again when they both filed for divorce from their respective spouses in August 2024.

“We’d text each other loving messages of support,” Remini told Us Weekly in an interview published Wednesday.

The “Kevin Can Wait” actress also insisted she was never feuding with Lopez, explaining, “Sometimes you don’t talk to people every day like you used to, but that doesn’t mean the love is lost.”

She added, ”Friendships ebb and flow. That doesn’t mean we’re at odds.”

Remini, 54, filed for divorce from Angelo Pagán on Aug. 29, 2024, after 21 years of marriage.

Remini, who shares a 20-year-old daughter, Sofia Bella, with Pagán, cited “irreconcilable differences” in her filing.

Lopez, meanwhile, pulled the plug on her union with Affleck on Aug. 20, 2024, after two years of marriage.

The “On the Floor” songstress, 55, waited to file the papers until the anniversary of their Georgia wedding ceremony — despite being separated from the Oscar-winning actor since April 2024.

Rumors of Lopez and Remini’s falling-out began swirling when the latter was notably absent from her BFF’s 2022 wedding to the “Gone Girl” star.

At the time, TMZ reported that Remini was busy helping her daughter prepare for college.

However, Page Six later learned that the former Scientologist skipped the ceremony because she didn’t agree with Lopez’s decision to wed Affleck.

An insider told us that Remini warned the “Let’s Get Loud” singer to remember why she called off her first engagement to Affleck back in 2004.

Per our source, Remini told Lopez that the actor was “selfish” and “not fully committed as a partner.”

“J.Lo was so mad, she cut off all ties,” we were told.

But we learned in May 2024 that the longtime friends had reconciled.
