Jennifer Lopez shares sultry selfie after filing for divorce from Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez is feeling herself amid her divorce from Ben Affleck.

The “Let’s Get Loud” hitmaker shared a glammed-up selfie on her Instagram Story Friday — her first post since she filed for divorce earlier this week on the anniversary of the exes’ second wedding in Georgia.

In the snapshot, which was a repost from a fan account, Lopez, 55, looked stunning with voluminous curls and soft glam makeup. She also rocked a pink robe for her hair-and-makeup session.

Notably, there was a Christmas tree with gifts in the background of the shot, indicating that the pic had been taken at least a few months ago over the holiday season.

However, the selfie appears to have actually originated from a December 2020 glam appointment with celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton.

At the time, the famed stylist posted a selfie of J.Lo on his profile wearing what appears to be the same look, which he described as “Deluxe Glam Barbie.”

Although Lopez has returned to social media since her divorce filing on Tuesday, she has not publicly commented on the dissolution of her marriage.

The “Marry Me” actress, however, cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for her split from Affleck.

An insider revealed to Page Six that she filed on the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding — which took place a few weeks after they eloped in Las Vegas in July 2022 — to stand up for herself.

According to another Page Six source, the singer and actress tried to save her marriage before it went down in flames, but Affleck, 52, showed no interest in doing the same.

“[Lopez] truly believed this was the greatest love story she’d ever known and she was finally getting her chance at the fairy tale,” a person close to the former couple told us Saturday.

“She just really didn’t stop to consider who the actual man was [in] the fairy tale.”

The source added, “Ben has a darkness to him that no other person can fix. [His actress ex-wife] Jen Garner couldn’t fix it, all the success in the world couldn’t fix it.”

In May, Page Six learned that the “Argo” star was ready to end his marriage with Lopez and would “divorce on grounds of temporary insanity” if he could.

“He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream, and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work,” the source explained at the time.

The “Jenny From the Block” hitmaker listed their official date of separation as April 26.

She did not request any spousal support and asked a judge to deny Affleck from doing so.

The pair are currently trying to sell their massive Beverly Hills, Calif., mansion, which they listed for $68 million in July after originally attempting to sell it off-market.
