Jennifer Lopez celebrated the anniversary of one of her empowerment anthems amid her reported split from Ben Affleck.

The 54-year-old Manhattan Maid star took to Instagram on Sunday to share her steamy music video for “Cambia el Paso” (2021), a song she co-wrote about taking control and changing one’s circumstances.

In the throwback clip, the hitmaker wows by playfully rolling around on a beach in a striking silver bustier and denim shorts.

One line of the song’s lyrics, translated from Spanish to English, reads: “Her life is better now without him… she doesn’t need anyone to be whole. She doesn’t fail, she doesn’t fail.”

Another verse states: “He doesn’t deserve to hold her in his arms.”

The cryptic post follows a sensational report claiming Jlo’s marriage to Affleck has now been “over for months.”

The insider also told Page Six that the couple has been “separated since March.”

The couple, who have not been photographed together for almost a month, have been at the centre of separation rumors for months and are said to be “on the verge of divorce”.

But despite their marital problems, the source added that Affleck is “very protective of Jennifer.”

On Monday, it was reported that the couple is selling off artwork from their $60 million mansion in Bel-Air, California. The house was listed for $65 million last month.

And now it looks like some of the expensive stuff in the boxy, white, two-story, 12-bedroom building – the so-called “Wallingford Estate” – is also being thrown out.

Page Six claimed that items such as paintings and “other items” were sold to collectors in early June.

The two lovebirds have not been seen in public together since June 2, when they shared an awkward cheek kiss at his son Samuel’s basketball game in Los Angeles.

One line of the song’s lyrics, translated from Spanish to English, reads: “Her life is better now without him… she don’t need nobody to be sane / She don’t fail, she don’t fail.”
Another verse states: “He doesn’t deserve to hold her in his arms.”

This came just days after People reported that Affleck took the last of his belongings from the apartment while Jennifer was vacationing in Italy last month.

The stars no longer live together; she lives in her $60 million mansion in Bel Air, California, while he lives in his $100,000 rental apartment near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

Affleck and Garner have three children together: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.

“Ben continues to live in the rental apartment in Brentwood,” a source told the site.

Affleck continued business as usual despite constant rumors that he was ready to divorce his wife of only two years.

“He’s been there for about two months now,” another source added.

“He seems to be OK. He is in the office every day and seems to be focused on his work. He also spends time with his children.”

Jennifer, on the other hand, seems to want to have some fun this summer, as she was spotted first in Paris and then in Italy with close friends.

The two seem to still be in touch. They have business connections: Lopez will star in two upcoming films for Affleck and Matt Damon’s production company. These films are Unstoppable and Kiss Of The Spider Woman.

This comes a week after a source told DailyMail.com that Jennifer has “given up” on trying to make her marriage to Ben work.

Amid rumors about the status of the couple’s marriage, an industry insider has now claimed that the pop star is at her wits’ end and no longer feels that she can do “more” to save the relationship.

“Jenny has had enough and she has really tried but she can’t take it anymore. It’s not getting better, it’s getting worse,” a music industry source told DailyMail.com.

The insider adds that the main reason JLo left her husband was because he was always “grumpy and negative,” like Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street.

Jennifer is sad about the end of her marriage, but is “trying to make the best of it by working out, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025,” it said.

One of those new plans is to resume her This Is Me… Live tour in the summer of 2025, when she turns 56. She has canceled the 2024 tour scheduled for July to “gather herself together.”

“She is looking forward to touring next year when her personal life will be calmer and she can reconnect with her fans. She will take her fans with her and make the most of it,” the source said.

Lopez is also said to be “shocked” by the bad press she is receiving, which she believes is unfair.

“If people could see what she really went through, they would be more lenient with her,” the source said.

“Ben is a great guy, but he can be grumpy and depressing. I think the world saw that in photos, like at the Grammys last year; he wasn’t smiling. If they had seen what it was really like, they wouldn’t have attacked her,” said Jennifer’s friend.

“He chain smokes, swears and often seems irritable. Great director and actor, but you don’t get much laughs with him, you know?” the source said. “But he’s a wonderful father.”

Lopez plans to continue.

“She’s really not used to this kind of negative feedback, but she’ll get over it. She’ll move on,” the friend said.

“Jennifer is a very smart and strong woman and she will get back on her feet, she always does!”

There have been numerous reports that Ben and Jennifer will announce their divorce soon and plan to do so on a Friday, which is the norm for celebrities who split.

Jennifer is sad about the end of her marriage but is “trying to make the best of it by working out, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025,” a source recently told DailyMail.com; Lopez was seen in June

When asked about this, the source replied, “I think they wanted to wait until all the kids were out of school and finished with the school schedules and all that before making their big announcement. For them, the kids come first.”

She has Max and Emme with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.

And as for Jennifer and Ben’s current relationship, the insider said they are “cordial” to one another.

So what happened to the once cheerful Ben who smiled at his fans and made out with Jennifer in public? The source points to the pressures in Ben’s career.

“He’s currently filming Accounting 2 and the hours are really long, he’s working hard and he’s juggling a lot with his marriage and kids,” the source said. “So sometimes he’s not in the best mood.”

In the meantime, Lopez has cleared her schedule for this summer to take some time and reflect on her life.

“She lives alone and not with Ben, I think everyone already knows that, so this is a big change for her and the kids,” the friend said. In fact, Ben moved months ago into a rental apartment near Garner that costs $100,000 a month.

“Of course Jenny is sad, she loves Ben, but they are just too different, there is no give and take, there was no mixing, they are simply going their separate ways.”

Lopez landed in New York City on Monday – still wearing her wedding ring – after a sensational report that her marriage to Affleck was “over for months”; seen in 2021

The source added that Jennifer tried her best: “She really tried hard to make it work and it just didn’t work out.”

“She put a lot of time and energy into it and I think he did the same. There’s no one to blame here. It just wasn’t predictable. It’s very difficult for two big stars to maintain a marriage, one has to give in and in this case neither gave in.”

The couple’s love story began in 2002 when they were together while filming the movie “Jersey Girl.” They got engaged the following year but split up in 2004. They rekindled their romance in spring 2021.

The couple married in a ceremony in Las Vegas in July 2022, followed by a lavish wedding at their Georgia estate in August 2022.
