Jennifer Lopez reveals if she'd save Ben Affleck or P Diddy if both were drowning in viral video
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Lopez's candid and cutting response about saving her exes, Sean 'P Diddy' Combs and Ben Affleck from drowning has resurfaced, stirring up attention just as she files for divorce from Affleck.
Lopez, who reconnected with Affleck and married him in 2022 after their initial engagement in 2002 fell through, officially filed for divorce on August 20.
Before rekindling her relationship with Affleck, Lopez was asked a provocative question about choosing between saving Affleck or Sean 'Diddy' Combs, another high-profile ex. This exchange has gained new relevance amid her current divorce proceedings, bringing renewed focus to her past relationships.

Jennifer Lopez in an awkward situation involving her exes
As Jennifer Lopez prepares to divorce Ben Affleck after two years of marriage, it's worth noting that she was also previously linked to Diddy. Back in 2014, while she was not in a relationship with either, Lopez was asked a direct question about her feelings. Radio host Big Boy presented a hypothetical scenario: "You're on a raft in the middle of the ocean and you look in the ocean, you see two people floating. You can only pull up one because that's how much room you have on the raft. You look in the ocean, you see Ben Affleck and you see Diddy."
To this, Lopez bluntly replied in the resurfaced interview, "I'd let both those m***** f***** drown!"
It is worth mentioning that Lopez eventually remarried Affleck after reconciling, but their relationship deteriorated again, leading to their divorce in August.
Diddy currently entangled in multiple legal battles
Jennifer Lopez and P Diddy have not been seen together publicly for years. Diddy is currently entangled in multiple legal battles, including accusations of rape and sexual assault. Homeland Security has also searched his Miami and Los Angeles properties, investigating possible links to sex trafficking. Diddy has denied any wrongdoing and is actively defending himself against these allegations.
In 2023, Diddy settled a lawsuit filed by Cassie Ventura within a day, but footage later surfaced showing him assaulting Cassie in a hotel corridor, as per Mirror.
In a heartfelt video statement, Diddy reflected on his actions, saying, "It's so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life, but sometimes you got to do that. I was f**ked up - I hit rock bottom - but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I was disgusted then when I did it. I'm disgusted now. I went and I sought out professional help. I got into going to therapy, going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I'm so sorry. But I'm committed to be a better man each and every day. I'm not asking for forgiveness. I'm truly sorry."
Jennifer Lopez calls herself a 'bad picker' after filing for divorce from Ben Affleck
In a recent interview, Jennifer Lopez had a candid conversation with her co-star Bobby Cannavale at the Toronto International Film Festival on Friday, September 6. On the red carpet, just before the movie premiere, Lopez made a striking appearance in a revenge dress and admitted to Cannavale, "I'm a bad picker."
She repeated this sentiment several times, adding with a shrug, "It is what it is," as Cannavale struggled to understand her meaning. This notable appearance came two weeks after Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, citing “irreconcilable differences” and claiming they have been separated since April. Lopez has been married three times before her marriage to Affleck, previously tying the knot with Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, and Marc Anthony, with whom she shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme.
