Jennifer Lopez is opening up in the latest issue of Vanity Fair with her on the cover.  She speaks about her marriage saying "It was not right" and how she still believes in love and marriage and that it was her biggest dream to make the marriage work.

Jennifer spoke candidly about the marriage and trying to make it work when asked;

“That was my biggest dream, and I really worked hard at it. We both did. Sometimes it doesn’t work—and that’s sad. But I remain an eternal optimist about love. I believe in love, “It’s still my biggest dream. I am positive—determined to move forward with my life, bring up my babies, and do the best job I can as a mother, entertainer, and person. I now look forward to new challenges. I feel strong.”

There is no doubt Jennifer wanted this marriage to work but at no time during the interview did she throw Marc under the bus for his alleged affairs over the years.  She did however not mention him as a great husband or father but rather only spoke of him professionally;

“I will always respect Marc as a singer and performer. We actually work great together, and he was always very supportive. Together we could make magic—and we did. He will always be in our lives. He will always hold a special place in my heart as the father of my children.”

Jennifer also talked about where her mind-set is now after the divorce;

I’m a hopeless romantic and passionate person when it comes to love. It’s not that I didn’t love myself before. Sometimes we don’t realize that we are compromising ourselves. To understand that a person is not good for you, or that that person is not treating you in the right way, or that he is not doing the right thing for himself—if I stay, then I am not doing the right thing for me. I love myself enough to walk away from that now.”

That message right there speaks volumes.  We love J. Lo.  We wish nothing but the best for her career, her family, and for her love.
