The law of attraction revealed its power to Jennifer Lopez and her mom Guadalupe Rodríguez, best known as Lupe. During a recent appearance on a red carpet for the premiere of her new action thriller, The Mother, the singer, actress, and businesswoman reacted to her mom’s remarks regarding how she always wanted Lopez to rekindle her relationship with Ben Affleck.

While walking at the event held at the Westwood Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles, the lovely couple posed for cameras and even shared some PDA. While approaching the press, Jennifer told ET that her mom’s comments on the Today show surprised her. “It’s so funny; she never said that to me,” Lopez told ET, laughing. “We never spoke about it.”

“I knew that you would always get back together because I prayed for 20 years,” Rodríguez told the Today Show. Lopez laughed and playfully said, “Ok.” Lopez and Affleck got married in a lavish wedding in August 2022. The pair reunited two decades after calling things off in 2004.

According to Jennifer, Lupe reportedly always loved Ben for her daughter, adding, “She really loved him when we were together before.”

They appreciate him, and so do I,” she said.
