Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck finalize amicable divorce
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, two Hollywood icons, rekindled their romance nearly two decades after their initial engagement. They married in 2022 but parted ways amicably after two years.
Singer-actress Jennifer Lopez says she has donated $1 million in aid to the Puerto Rico recovery effort, following the devastating effects of hurricanes Irma and Maria.
In a video on her Instagram, Lopez said she will source the money from her Las Vegas residency shows, reports theguardian.com.

They announced a scheme that encourages New York residents to donate goods, and aims to provide healthcare support.
Having already been battered by Hurricane Irma, on September 20 the island was hit by Hurricane Maria, the strongest storm to reach Puerto Rico in more than 80 years, with winds of 155mph and more than 20 inches of rain. It left the island’s 3.5 million residents without power, a situation that could take months to rectify. The death toll currently stands at 10, but is expected to rise.
