Jennifer Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony have suddenly announced they're splitting up after a near recording breaking seven years of marriage...

The couple, who have two children - three-year-old twins Max and Emme - reportedly released a joint statement to People.com. According to the US celebrity news website, the 41-year-old singer-actress and Anthony released a statement, saying: “We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters.”

This is the third marriage for the American Idol judge, who was previously married to former back-up dancer Cris Judd, who she divorced in 2003 after two years of marriage, and Cuban waiter Ojani Noa, from whom she split in 1998 after a whirlwind romance that lasted just 10 months. She married Anthony in a surprise ceremony in June 2004. The 42-year-old Latin singer-songwriter has also been married before - to Puerto Rican actress Dayanara Torres, with whom he has two children.

The person who inflicted Jenny From The Block on us has also had high-profile romances in the past with rapper P Diddy and Oscar-winning actor Ben Affleck, to whom she was engaged.
