The singer has spoken out for the first time since Gwyneth Paltrow’s comments on Ben Affleck’s s*xual abilities. Jennifer Lopez made a recent appearance on The View and spoke warmly of her husband, lauding how he raises their collective children. Gwyneth left her fans stunned when she compared her exes Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck and declared that the latter was superior in bed while the former was a better actor.
Notably, Brad and Gwyneth dated from 1994 but they separated in 1997. Next, she dated Ben for three years, who is now married to Jennifer Lopez.

Speaking about Ben, 50, she said: ‘He’s an amazing dad. It brings tears to my eyes. He is honestly the best dad I’ve ever seen. He’s so involved, he teaches me about how to interact with the kids sometimes.’ He’s just so in tune, he’s such a brilliant guy anyway like he’s so learned in so many things, and you can just tell when he’s had his kids, he read every book and everything you could possibly learn about children, and he applies it…”
In the wake of Gwyneth’s comments, Jennifer opted to discuss his abilities as a father instead of Ben’s s*xual abilities, adding ‘He is present and that’s all you can ask for, is a present, loving dad who cares and who shows up every single day, and that’s who he is.’

Jennifer and Ben combined their families after marrying last year. Jennifer has 15-year-old twins Emme and Max with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Ben has three children – Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14, and Samuel, 11 from his previous marriage to Jennifer Garner. The 53-year-old while on the show admitted it has been tough seeing her children individuating their own unique identities.

Jennifer explained, ‘I’m experiencing this now, we all experience it for the first time with our own kids, and you’re just like “Oh, this is what she was talking about.’
‘This is the time where your kids don’t want to talk to you, and they kind of individuating from you, and it’s all necessary, and intellectually I understand it. But my heart! My heart!’ So far, the actress’s film career has been thriving and she’s set to star in the upcoming Netflix movie “The Mother,” releasing on May 12th, where she plays the role of a fierce assassin dedicated to protecting her daughter.

To prepare for the role, Jennifer claimed she has undergone extensive combat training, stating, ‘that was one of those ones where you really have to train a lot, where you really have to do the fight training and you have to do the sniper training… It was a lot of fun but it’s a lot of work.’

While Jennifer wishes she would have gotten such roles when she was a little younger, she still says it was an ’empowering’ experience. ‘And it’s funny, you know I wish I would have gotten a lot of these types of roles that I’m getting now, funnily enough, when I was a little bit more, you know, spry. A little bit younger, let’s just say it. And it’s exciting to be able to do it now, I think for me, it’s really kind of empowering and makes me feel strong and good.’
The Jenny From The Block singer further described how her background in dance helped her pick up the fight routines. ‘It was regular fight training, but it was choreographed. You have to be efficient; I can’t be fighting eight hours a day. After an hour, I’m like, OK! So they had to be real efficient and we choreographed almost like a dance, which is good for me since I’m a dancer, so I can kind of do it step by step and I just learn it from there.’

Earlier in the week, Gwyneth appeared in a podcast interview with Alex Cooper called Call Her Daddy.
The actress shared some frank answers, including who among her exes was best in the bedroom. Gwyneth said, ‘That’s really hard. Because Brad was like the major chemistry love of your life at the time. And then Ben was like technically excellent. I can’t believe my daughter’s listening to this.’ When asked who is the better actor between the two, she claimed Brad and Ben are both talented but that Brad is best at acting due to the different roles he’s done.
