At that time, the former couple issued a joint statement to USA Today, which read, “We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects. We wish the best for each other and one another’s children. Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support.”

Jennifer Lopez files for divorce without legal representative

Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce on Tuesday in the Los Angeles County Superior Court. Her petition for the dissolution of their marriage was filed on the two-year anniversary of their Georgia wedding. The Atlas actor filed for divorce on her own, without an attorney or legal representative. She stated the separation date as April 26, 2024, which is about four months ago. This timeline makes sense as the couple spent their summer living apart.
