Jennifer Lopez’s first husband wishes her well, casts doubt on marriage to Ben Affleck

0

Two weeks after Jennifer Lopez married her old flame Ben Affleck, the actress’ first husband, Ojani Noa, said he wishes the two of them well but has doubts they will be together “forever.”

“I wish her and Ben the best, but I’m not convinced it will last,” the Cuban actor and personal trainer, who was married to Lopez from 1997-98 told the Daily Mail in an interview published Saturday.”

“Jen loves being in love but she’s been engaged six times. Ben is husband number four. I was husband number one and she told me I was the love of her life. When we lay in bed on our wedding night, she said we would be together forever.”

He said he’s happy his ex has married Affleck but thinks she’s “someone who will be married seven or eight times.”

“I can’t see her ever settling down with one person,” he admitted. “She pushes herself to constantly go forward in her professional life, which is why she’s had a three-decade career, but she also moves on in her private life.”

Noa said that he often felt like “Mr. Cinderella” when he was with the “Marry Me” star.

Eventually, he said their relationship was complicated by what he referred to as the “parasites who feed off celebrities” after she became a superstar.

He said they first met in 1996 while he was working as a waiter at Gloria Estefan’s Miami restaurant after he had fled Cuba. “I had no idea who she was,” he said. “Our eyes glanced at each other and I thought she was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen.”

Ojani Noa said she later told him she knew the first night they met she was going to marry him.

After they married, and she became an overnight sensation with 1997’s “Selena,” he said their relationship started to sour.

He said she had new people around her who wanted to make money off her, and he was jealous that he started seeing her in photos with rapper Sean Combs, also known as Puff Daddy, which she said was just “business.”
