The divorce between Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony might have been almost 2 years ago, but the wound is still healing.

The 43-year-old pop star beauty recently sat down with Katie Couric where she talked about how hard it was to move on from the divorce, even though she’s currently dating back-up dancer Casper Smart.

She told Katie of how she talks to her kids about it:

‘I actually just wrote a song about it and just recorded it funnily enough, because I wanted to explain to them without out explaining it to them. It is a beautiful song. But there something inside of me that was struggling with that part of things. I feel like God gives me the words every time because every time they do it I get a rush of panic through my body and I’m like ”Oh my god, what do I say?’ Again it is learning process, like with Marc, and I said maybe we should do some things together.’

She also talks about how playing a newly divorced woman in the movie ‘Parker’ was therapeutic for her own personal process:

‘It was kind of perfect to be honest, because I was very in touch with all the emotions. I play a character who is really literally at the worst point of her life. She’s divorced, she’s pushing forty and her work isn’t doing well and she is living with her mum. So she’s at the worst point of her life and at that moment when I was doing the movie, I felt the same way. It was the worst time of my life going through the divorce with the kids, so it was kind of a blessing – as these can be sometimes – to be able to use all those emotions and all those feelings and put them somewhere.

It looks like J. Lo is doing much better now than during her divorce process. We’re glad that she was able to come out better than ever!
