Lopez and Anthony announced their separation in July 2011, marking the end of Lopez's third marriage. The couple have two children, twins Maximilian "Max" David and Emme Maribel, born in 2008.
Although they separated in mid-2011, neither actively pursued a legal divorce until April 2012, when, according to TMZ, Anthony filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences." The divorce took two years to finalize.
