Jennifer Lopez Reflects On ‘Bridgerton’-Themed 55th Birthday Party Amid Divorce Rumors
And just like that, Jennifer Lopez is 55.
The Bronx-native recently celebrated her milestone birthday with a delightful birthday party in the Hamptons themed after the hit Netflix series, Bridgerton. The regal affair was fitting for Jenny From The Block.
She arrived at her party in a horse-drawn carriage that featured an orchestra, ball gowns, a costume change, an impromptu performance on her part, and lots of synchronized dancing. When recapping the evening, Lopez captioned the video montage, “Dearest Gentle Reader… And a splendid evening was had by all.”
When reflecting on her birthday in a separate post, the “If You Had My Love” singer shared, “I’ve been seeing all of your birthday wishes, beautiful videos, and posts all last night and this morning from all over the world. I have laughed, smiled, shed some tears, and when I saw the billboard in Times Square, I was completely overwhelmed.”
She then praised her fans and their unwavering love. “I really do have the best, most amazing fans in the world. I could never express how moved I am or how incredibly blessed I feel to have all of you be a part of my life. Thank you sooooo very much,” Lopez added.
Her sentiments took an emotional turn as she noted, “It’s hard to believe we have spent all this time together. It’s funny as I sit here contemplating on the most extraordinary journey I still feel like the same girl starting out so full of energy and bravado, so ready to take on the whole world on the outside and yet so tender, fragile and sometimes frightened but always full of love on the inside.”
Yet, the rom-com queen admitted that her greatest birthday gift is her fans. “Besides my family and friends, you have always been there for me in the good times and in the tough times. I can always count on you. And I want you to know that you can always count on me. Thank you for your caring, your understanding, your loyalty and most importantly your love.”
Her birthday reflection came amid news that she and Ben Affleck are divorcing. He was also notably absent from her party.
Neither have addressed the rumors, but they did spend their second wedding anniversary and most of the summer on separate coasts, per the New York Post.
