Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony Finalize Divorce

by Caroline Pate

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony's impending divorce has been drawn out long enough for them both to have entire rebound relationships in the meantime. But as of today, the singing power couple of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony's divorce is officially final. The couple filed for divorce in back in 2011. Lopez took up with her former backup dancer, Casper Smart, a few months afterwards. Anthony didn't file divorce papers until 2012, and has since dated a few models.

The former couple finally ended negotiations over custody of their six-year-old twins Max and Emme in March. Lopez currently has primary custody, with Anthony getting custody seven days each month. Neither party has to pay child support (although Anthony is still paying custody to the woman he divorced shortly before he married Lopez, Dayanara Torres).

Ironically, the divorce has been finalized just as both Lopez and Anthony have become recently single. Lopez and Smart ended things back in April. Anthony and model Chloe Green called it quits in February of this year, although he's recently been looking cuddly with recent ex, model Shannon De Lima.

Although the couple seemed incredibly compatible, this divorce seems best for the both of them. Both Lopez and Anthony have seemed to move on, and Miss Jenny from the Block seems posed for a big career comeback. So...congratulations?
