The pair married her in 2004 and the 40-year-old singer has 17-month-old twins, Max and Emme, with Jennifer. The salsa star says he was convinced he would spend the rest of his life with the brunette the moment they met backstage at Broadway production in 1997.

“She came to see me backstage at a theatre. As soon as she walked through the door I don’t know what hit me. But I probably said the worst thing. I said, ‘You’re my wife and you don’t even know it,’ and she was like, ‘Excuse me? Well that’s intense.’ I had no idea where that came from. But she was very cute and now she gets it! She’s my girl,” Marc explains.

The couple briefly dated after their first meeting, but both went on to marry other people before they reunited. Marc and Jennifer attended Jennifer’s birthday party “An Evening for Lola” at the Club Edison in New York City over the weekend.

“I could quite possibly be staring at the first day of the rest of my life,” Anthony said in a news conference in New York. “That’s quite exciting at this stage of the game. I’m a little nervous. I’d rather sing. That’s much easier to me?..It’s a storied franchise, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I’m going to try to make it to my seat because my knees are a little weak.”

“I’m a huge sports fan,” the 40-year-old star remarked in an interview with PEOPLE this morning. “These opportunities don’t come around too often. It’s quite an honor and a privilege to be able to sit here today saying that I’m a part-owner of an NFL team.”

The Dolphins went from a dismal 1-15 record in 2007 to 11-5 and the 2008 AFC East Championship, before losing to the Baltimore Ravens in the playoffs.

Jennifer Lopez feared her daughter Emme was seriously ill after discovering a lump on the child’s head when she was just three weeks old.

The singer-and-actress — who raises 15-month-old twins Max and Emme with her husband Marc Anthony –says she was terrified after making the discovery.

“We both got very nervous, very, very nervous, and I just remember my heart sinking to my feet. I looked at Marc and I said, ‘You know if anything happens, I’m not going to be OK, you know that right?’” the 39-year-old star told E! at the Noche de Ninos Gala Benefit for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles on Saturday.

“Luckily in the end, she turned out fine,” Jennifer added.

The 39-year-old singer-and-actress — now a mother of two — showed off a new slimmed-down figure during an interview on Good Morning America this week, but some fans noticed that the star’s once voluptuous rear was only a shadow of its former self.

Jennifer’s husband, salsa star Marc Anthony, reportedly agrees. Marc is said to be distraught with his wife’s changing physique.

“Jennifer’s really into triathlons and has stepped up training. She’s super-fit but it’s eaten all her curves, especially her behind, Marc is really upset.”

American Idol contestant Jorge Nuñez got the surprise of his life when host Ryan Seacrest passed on a message from Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez saying that “they couldn’t be prouder.”

Jorge, a native of Puerto Rico, cracked the coveted Top 12 13 on the eighth season of American Idol earlier this week without breaking a sweat. Bronx, NY-born entertainers Marc and Jennifer are also of Puerto Rican descent.

“That is the best thing that ever happened to me,” says Jorge, 21. “They are so famous here. Imagine how famous they are in Puerto Rico. They told me they were brought to tears by my performance. That is the first time I ever heard from them. Oh, my God. They know who I am.”

The “Nuyoricans”- who are parents to 10-month-old twins Max and Emme – are attempting to put an end to rumors that their marriage is seeped in trouble by splashing out on a property on their home island.

“They have been having problems, like in any marriage. They’ve been arguing,” says one friend. “The marriage is experiencing frustrations because of the added stress of the twins but they will work things out. They love each other, and that will dictate what happens. I don’t think divorce is in the picture.”

The pair first sparked rumours of trouble in their relationship after they were both spotted in public without their wedding rings.

Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez will end their 4.5 year marriage in February, according to a scoop featured in Monday’s edition of the NY Daily News.

A friend of the estranged couple tells the tab: “Marc and Jennifer are planning on announcing their divorce right after Marc’s show at Madison Square Garden on Feb. 14. Jennifer is planning on joining Marc onstage for a surprise duet. Things haven’t been right for a while now, and they thought it would be a bittersweet farewell.”

Marc and Jennifer, parents of ten month-old twins Max and Emme, renewed their wedding vows in an impromptu ceremony in Las Vegas last October, but the ritual has done little to remedy the couple’s rumored rift.

“They’re definitely planning a clean break in February.”

Jennifer Lopez’s four-year marriage to salsa star Marc Anthony is reportedly “on the rocks.”

The Puerto Rican pair, who welcomed twins Max and Emme ten months ago and renewed their vows in October, have prompted split rumors after both were recently spotted without their wedding bands in recent weeks.

An Us Weekly source claims the couple have reached the “breaking point,” adding: “They are both getting bored.”

“She wanted this domestic life, but now she’s bored out of her mind. She wants the old J-Lo back.”

It is also claimed the Maid in Manhattan star has become disillusioned with Marc’s “controlling” tendencies, like keeping tabs on her phone calls and selecting her attire.

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are enjoying parenthood so much, the couple is planning to have another baby.

Marc and Jenn welcomed the arrival of fraternal twins Max and Emme last February but are itching to expand their family.

“They were advised to wait 6 months after she gave birth,” a friend of Jennifer’s has revealed to In Touch Weekly. “They listened to their doctor’s advice, but now they’re trying to make one more baby.”

“Jennifer can’t believe how much she loves motherhood,” the mole adds.

“She always knew she wanted to be a mom one day, but she wasn’t quite prepared for the overwhelming joy these children have given her or how it’s really cemented her relationship with Marc.”
