Shetty, who has hosted countless celebrities, including Lopez, on her “On Purpose” podcast, has been very close to the superstar singer for years.
When he appeared on his YouTube series, “Coach Conversations,” last summer, he opened up about his relationship struggles over the years.
López said that when he was doing therapy in his 30s, “there [was] There was a lot of talk about loving yourself, and I said, “I love myself!” But obviously, I was doing all these things in my personal relationship that didn’t seem like I loved myself, but I didn’t even understand the concept.”
He then added, “I took time and it’s a journey. And it’s still a journey for me.”

According to Affleck, he and Garner simply “broke up.” Although they “tried” to make it work for the sake of their children, they ultimately decided they “shouldn’t be married anymore.”
“We did our best. Have we had moments of tension? Have we had custody disagreements? Were things difficult for us? Did we get angry? Yes,” he admitted, “but fundamentally, it was always supported by a respect.”

However, he credits Garner with stepping in on him in August 2018 and making sure he checked into rehab.
