Jennifer Lopez’s mom ‘prayed for 20 years’ she and Ben Affleck would reunite
She was never gonna give up.
Jennifer Lopez’s mom revealed Wednesday that she always knew her daughter would find her way back to Ben Affleck, 50.
While Lopez, 53, was interviewed by “Today” host Hoda Kotb, 58, Guadalupe Rodríguez sat off-camera with Savannah Guthrie for a private conversation they ended up sharing with the world.
“When you talked about Ben, what did you tell me?” Guthrie, 51, prompted Rodríguez, 77, to repeat on-air.
“I knew that you would always get back together,” Rodríguez claimed, “because I prayed for 20 years that you would.”
“OK,” Lopez rolled her eyes, insinuating that this wasn’t the first time she’s heard that from her mother.
“Let’s keep going,” Lopez said, urging Kotb to shift the conversation back to business.
Lopez’s movie “The Mother” hits Netflix on May 12 — two days before Mother’s Day.
Her album “This Is Me … Now” is expected to drop this summer.
The Post has contacted reps for Lopez and Affleck.
The couple got engaged in 2002 before splitting in 2004.
They reconnected nearly 20 years later and finally married in 2022.
During their time apart, Lopez married Marc Anthony, now 54, and had twins, Max and Emme, 15.
The couple separated in 2011 and divorced in 2014.
The “Hustlers” star told Kotb on Wednesday that her twins “love” and “appreciate” Affleck, calling him a “wonderful father figure” to them.
Lopez got engaged to Yankees legend Alex Rodriguez, 47, in March 2019 after dating for a couple of years.
They called things off in March 2021.
As for the “Air” actor and filmmaker, he married actress Jennifer Garner, now 51, in 2005. They have three children: Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14, and Samuel, 11.
Affleck and Garner announced their separation in 2015, and their divorce was finalized in 2018.
