Earlier this month, The Blast detailed her conversation on "Good Morning America" where she spoke about creating a family with her soulmate and anticipating their future as a couple.
At the time, she explained the vision and mission of her initiative involving assisting "Latina small business owners" while also dishing on her love affair with Affleck.
The mother-of-two hoped to change the "fabric of America," particularly for Latina women with small businesses to whom she planned on donating $14 billion over the next eight years.
Speaking of her romance, she mentioned that being with her current lover was the best period in her life, and nothing was more satisfying than starting a family together.
JLo further noted that Affleck was as devoted to "family" as she was, and she was hopeful for what they would build in the future.
She added, "I really just wanna stay with the moment; I just wanna stay real present in it, as much as I can."
On another occasion, the "Monster-in-Law" actress gave Affleck a cute shout-out while she was presented the lifetime achievement award at the 2022 MTV Movie & TV Awards.
The outlet shared her touching speech, dedicated to her partners and those who had a hand in aiding her challenging climb to success.
Every role JLo played in films reflected some parts of her, which she revealed at the ceremony as she felt that no one could "create truth" without experiencing it.
Her appreciation extended to her fans, haters, and those who never believed in her.
She further gave thanks to "true love" from her children, Maximilian and Emme, who taught her how to love, and concluded the speech by notifying "everybody at home," including Affleck, that she would soon be home for dinner.
The "J.Lo" Star And Her Lover Previously Separated Partly Due To Media Attack
The Blast recently reported Affleck's concerns about the media's intrusion into their love life when they were first engaged about two decades ago.
Despite fans being totally taken with the "Bennifer" pair at the time, the media were not so pro-Bennifer as they circulated negative comments.
Affleck admitted in JLo’s documentary "Halftime" that he was shocked by the insults directed at him and the "On the 6" musician by the press.
This led him to ask JLo if the remarks bothered her, and she told him that as a Latina woman, she expected them, but she knew he did not imagine such happening as he expected to be "treated fairly."
The couple's past relationship suffered partly due to the media onslaught, which the pop culture icon stressed to Hello Magazine, stating that it "definitely played a part" in their relationship's dynamic.
