| "I Still Believe In Love" |
Jennifer Lopez has said that she still believes in love, in her first interview since annoucing her divorce to Marc Anthony.
The 42-year-old star has said that despite going through her third marriage breakdown, she is still on the look out for love and believes it exists. JLO told Vanity Fair magazine that she and Marc really wanted things to work out:
"That was my biggest dream, and I really worked hard at it. We both did. Sometimes it doesn't work - and that's sad. But I remain an eternal optimist about love. I believe in love. It's still my biggest dream. I am positive - determined to move forward with my life, bring up my babies, and do the best job I can as a mother, entertainer, and person. I now look forward to new challenges. I feel strong."
The singer/actress who was previously engaged to both Ben Affleck and P. Diddy also said that she can get trapped in relationships and that it took her a while to realise that she was being taken advantage of, hinting that Marc didn't treat her right:
"It's not that I didn't love myself before. Sometimes we don't realise that we are compromising ourselves," she explained. To understand that a person is not good for you, or that that person is not treating you in the right way, or that he is not doing the right thing for himself - if I stay, then I am not doing the right thing for me. I love myself enough to walk away from that now."

However the mummy to twins Max and Emme had nothing bad to say about her soon-to-be ex hubby. She has vowed to remain on good terms with him for the sake of their children and she is grateful they had a family together:
"I will always respect Marc as a singer and performer. We actually work great together, and he was always very supportive. Together we could make magic - and we did. He will always be in our lives. He will always hold a special place in my heart as the father of my children."
JLO also revealed that having their children and starting American Idol completely changed their relationship, adding strain to their marriage as they couldn't spend enough alone time together:
"When we were [first] married, most of the time, and even before the babies were born, we were able to go everywhere together. I wasn't working as much. So we kind of had that. I went on tour with him a few times in the first few years of our marriage, and we did a film together. Like I said, we had the first three years of our marriage just for us. I wasn't working, it was mainly about him. Then we got pregnant. Then it became about the kids. And then I started working again."Let's hope they stay civil for the sake of the children. Meanwhile the latino star has already had to face rumours of dating with her 'I'm Into You' co-star William Levy.
