Jennifer Lopez is usually the one who comes under fire for her “rude” behavior. But things were a little different when she appeared on a panel in Mexico City to promote her new movie Atlas on Wednesday, March 22nd.
When the 54-year-old multi-hyphenate appeared on the panel, she was asked about her relationship with 51-year-old Gone Girl actor Ben Affleck. In particular, whether there was any truth in the rumors that there is trouble in paradise and they could be getting a divorce.

Jennifer Lopez Was Asked About Ben Affleck Divorce Rumors In Mexico City
The brief exchange was captured on video and posted on the El Gordo y la Flaca Instagram account. After the reporter asks the question, the “On The Floor” hitmaker looks somewhat taken aback and deflated, and replies: “You know better than that.”
The JLo Beauty mogul – who was dressed in a dazzling Lapointe cape T-shirt and matching sequin flare pants, with her hair styled in voluminous curls – then leans back in her chair and continues answering questions. However, her reaction didn’t go unnoticed on social media, with many fans criticizing the reporter for asking such a “rude” question and others feeling sorry for the Marry Me actress.
Fan Reactions
"She looks so hurt when asked that question. They should just leave her alone," wrote one fan in the Instagram comments section. "You can tell she was trying very hard to keep herself together and not cry. I wonder what is happening?" asked another, as a third commented: "Give her some space! She looks very uncomfortable with the question."
"This is so sad, you can tell that question hurt her, her mood changed and I could see the sadness in her eyes," wrote another fan, adding: "She's in pain right now, this is so sad, I hate seeing her like this."
