Jennifer Lopezis sharing new details about her second engagement ring fromBen Affleck.
In anew interviewwith Zane Lowe for Apple Music, the “Let’s Get Loud” singer, 53, opened up about the sentimental engraving on her ring — a green stone placed on a silver band.
It’s a simple yet meaningful three-worded message from the Oscar winner, 50, proclaiming his longtime love for Lopez: “not.going.anywhere.”
During the sit-down released on Monday, Lopez revealed that the words inspired one of the upcoming tracks in her highly anticipated album,This Is Me…Now, which sheannounced on Nov. 25.
She also gave a glimpse at the beginnings of their reconciliation in revealing the meaning behind the inscription. “That’s how he would sign his emails when we started talking again. Like ‘Don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere,'” she told Lowe.
