In a revealing excerpt from her new book, ‘True Love’, Jennifer Lopez opens up about her shocking past. She writes that she has been in relationships where she has ‘felt abused in one way or another.’ Find out what else she is sharing about her struggles over the years.

Jennifer Lopez told People Magazine that she “went back and forth so many times” when deciding whether she wanted to share intimate details of her life in her new book, True Love. She made the brave decision to open up in order to get one main message across to her readers — “We’re not victims in this life.”

Jennifer Lopez Abused — The Singer Opens Up About Past Relationships In New Book ‘True Love’

“I’ve never gotten a black eye or busted lip, but I’ve been in relationships where I have felt abused in one way or another: mentally, emotionally, verbally,” Jennifer writes in an excerpt from her new book obtained by People Magazine.

“I know what it feels like for your soul to be diminished by the way your loved one is treating you….but everyday that you don’t walk out that door, everyday you accept things in your partner and in yourself, is a day that you’re saying it’s okay,” she continues.

JLo Recounts The Day She Decided To Leave Marc Anthony

Jennifer also bravely recalls the day “when everything changed.” She writes, “I had just celebrated our seventh wedding anniversary. Anybody looking from the outside in would have thought my life was great….What people didn’t know was that life really wasn’t that good. My relationship was falling apart, and I was terrified.”

She was getting made up for a photo shoot when she started to have a panic attack. “My heart was beating out of my chest, and I felt like I couldn’t breath….My mom was there and she rushed to my side…..I blurted out the words: “I don’t think I can be with Marc anymore.” Then I burst into tears,” she tells readers.

She goes on to say that “this road of healing and rediscovery has been a long one” but she is in “the best place” she’s ever been!

HollywoodLifers, do you think it was so brave of Jennifer to open up about her shaky past? Comment below!
