Jennifer Lopez is looking back on her short-lived marriage to Ben Affleck.
The “Hustlers” star debuted six new songs for 30 fans at an exclusive listening party in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, and one song in particular — “Wreckage of You” — seems to be about her “very difficult” split from the actor.
“‘Wreckage of You’ is a pop ballad that she told us she cowrote and recorded two weeks ago,” said attendee Edgardo Luis Rivera, per Us Weekly.
“She said she was lying in bed after a long day of tour rehearsals when the idea of the song came to her. She mentioned how last year was a very difficult time for her both personally and professionally. She had to cancel her tour and really focus on herself,” the fan further told the outlet.
“Fast-forward to one year later, and she feels better and stronger than ever, so she wanted to write a song about coming out of a bad situation much stronger.”
Lopez “kept thinking of the word ‘wreck’ because it means destruction, but she wasn’t destroyed,” Rivera told the outlet. “In fact, the lyrics of the song are, ‘I’m stronger after the wreckage of you.’”
A second partygoer echoed Riviera’s comments, telling the outlet that the new ballad is a “very emotional, empowering song about walking away from a relationship and coming out a stronger person.”
The other songs played — “Up All Night,” “Regular,” “Free,” “Save Me Tonight” and “Birthday” — were all reportedly upbeat songs that have “a real vibe to them,” according to Rivera.
Reps for Affleck and Lopez did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Lopez, 55, made headlines in August 2024 when she shockingly filed for divorce from Affleck after two years of marriage.
The split came months after it was reported that they had been separated since April of that year.
Their divorce was finalized in January. However, the terms of their dissolution agreement wouldn’t go into effect until Feb. 21 — at which point, Lopez and the “Gone Girl” star, 52, were officially declared single.
The “Dance Again” singer certainly appeared to have come out on the other side of her divorce stronger as a source previously told us in March that Lopez was “ready” to start dating once again.
“Jennifer is ready to put herself out there again and she hasn’t given up on finding love,” the insider shared.
“Her friends have encouraged her to date and she’s definitely open to meeting someone new.”
