Jennifer Lopez has provided an intimate peek into her passionate love life with husband Ben Affleck through her latest album, "This Is Me... Now." Serving as a sequel to her 2002 record "This Is Me... Then," the album includes the comeback track "Can't Get Enough," vividly capturing the dynamics of their relationship.
In "Can't Get Enough," Lopez openly expresses her deep affection and desire for Affleck, offering candid lyrics charged with emotion and physicality. The verses convey her overwhelming feelings, saying, "Is this real life? Too good to be true. Take me all night. I can still feel the passion in your eyes. I'm so in love with you."
The album also features "Dear Ben II," a sentimental sequel to a track from her earlier album, further highlighting the enduring and evolving nature of their love story.
In an interview with Variety, Lopez revealed the emotional scars both she and Affleck carry from their initial highly publicized relationship in the early 2000s, acknowledging the lingering impact of media scrutiny and the challenges they faced. She shared that they both still experience 'PTSD' from that time but have learned to prioritize their authentic selves over public perception.
Their journey, marked by a broken engagement in 2003, subsequent marriages and divorces with other partners, and a rekindled romance in 2021 culminating in marriage in 2022, forms the narrative backdrop of the album. Lopez's new release not only celebrates their reconnection but also reflects on personal growth and a deeper understanding of life's true values.
"We also know what’s important, what’s really important in life, and it’s not so much what other people think. It’s about being true to who you are," she emphasized.
"This Is Me... Now" signifies a bold and revealing chapter in Jennifer Lopez's career, offering fans an unprecedented look into her private life with Ben Affleck—an exploration of love, resilience, and rediscovery.
