She acknowledged that her life felt as if it had “blown up” and emphasized the lessons she continues to learn through this challenging time.

In her interview, the acclaimed actress highlighted the importance of self-reflection and personal growth. She expressed a newfound need for solitude after her marriage, stating, “You have to be healthy. You have to be complete if you want something that’s more complete. You have to be good on your own. I thought I learned that, but I didn’t.” Lopez conveyed her determination to embrace her independence, adding that she needed to take time for herself to prove her ability to thrive alone.

Lopez further clarified her current outlook on relationships, stating that she is not actively seeking a new partner. “I’m not looking for anybody,” she said, indicating her focus on personal healing and self-discovery rather than pursuing new romantic connections.

The Atlas star’s reflections resonate with many fans who admire her resilience and commitment to personal growth. As she navigates this new chapter in her life, Lopez’s candidness about her struggles serves as an inspiration to others facing similar challenges.
