During one of her latest concerts on her tour through Spain, Jennifer López didn't want to miss the opportunity to publicly respond to her ex-husband, Ben Affleck. Without mincing words, the singer revealed a detail about her painful divorce that she had been hiding for months.
It's no secret to anyone that the love story between Jennifer López and Ben Affleck has been marked by ups and downs for almost two decades. In fact, their secret wedding held in 2022 wasn't enough to put an end to the tensions that had built up between them.
So much so that, two years after saying "I do," they both decided to end their relationship for good. However, although they chose not to issue any statement after their separation, they have hinted at all kinds of hidden reproaches in messages and song lyrics during this time.
Proof of this is what happened just a few days ago, during one of the latest concerts that Jennifer López has given in Spain. At that moment, the singer revealed a detail until now unknown about her painful divorce from Ben Affleck.

This ballad, which Jennifer López wrote "one night when I couldn't sleep," directly alludes to her breakup with Ben Affleck. In addition, it reveals deep feelings that she had kept inside for a long time.
Now, this song has been recognized as one of the most personal pieces of her entire career. With it, the singer shows the maturity she has reached over the years, reflecting both the beauty and the pain of love.

During her latest concert, Wreckage of You has been understood as a direct response to her breakup with Ben Affleck. In it, Jennifer López sings with determination phrases like "only now do I realize I'm better, better" or "watch me climb out of the wreckage you left."
