Lopez, Anthony marriage said to be at 'breaking point'

Marc Anthony was quick to squelch rumors about trouble in paradise - or at least, Brookville - after a celebrity magazine reported his marriage to Jennifer Lopez was at a "breaking point."
"They are doing great," a spokeswoman for Anthony said yesterday, after reports surfaced that the singer was flirting with a woman at two New York City nightspots earlier this month.
"Any comments implying that they are having problems and that Marc behaved in a questionable manner while out with friends last week are absolutely false," Anthony spokeswoman Blanca Lasalle told Newsday.
A spokeswoman for Lopez echoed Anthony's reprise, saying: "They are fine."
The hullabaloo began when Us magazine posted a story online yesterday noting that Lopez attended a movie premiere without her 8-carat diamond engagement ring, her wedding band - or, for that matter, her husband.
Anthony, meanwhile, was reportedly seen in Las Vegas a week earlier, without his wedding band.
"They both didn't wear their rings on purpose," the magazine says, quoting a "mutual pal" of the couple. "Nothing Jennifer does is without purpose."
Lopez and Anthony, the parents of 10-month-old twins, renewed their vows in October. They have been married four years.
"He's very, very controlling of her," a close Anthony pal told Us. "The skirts aren't as short. You don't see so much of that booty anymore." The magazine also reports that Anthony also picks out Lopez's clothes and keeps tabs on her phone calls.
But Lopez - who once claimed she "loved getting his opinions" - has become less interested in his approval since the birth of their twins, Max and Emme, the magazine said.
"She walks in from work, washes her hands and grabs the babies," a "longtime friend" told Us. "With him, it's almost like, 'Ugh, they're crying again?'"

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony took a break from diaper duty with twins Max and Emme Tuesday night, when they opted for a romantic, adult dinner at Andrew Hewitt's new Pacific-Rim-inspired Beverly Hills restaurant, Luau.
The couple – the subject of recent rumors about their state of their marriage – snuggled together in a booth, feeding one another Kobe meatballs and enjoying tamarind-glazed ribs, as well as each other's company, if their kisses were any indication.
Lopez, sipping an apple martini, and Anthony, drinking beer, "looked genuinely in love," observed one diner.
Also adding to the festive atmosphere: a fellow patron's toddler, who sprinted the Anthonys – who couldn't help but fawn over the child.
Still to come was dessert, coconut tiramisu and chocolate lava cake, which the happy couple shared.
As for reports the couple have been seen out and about without each other, says Marc's rep, Blanca Lasalle, "They are doing great. [These] are fabricated stories. They are together. He had a boys night out. She had a girls night out. There is nothing wrong with that."

Is Lopez-Anthony Marriage in Trouble?
Lopez and Anthony have reportedly been attending functions solo and aren't wearing their wedding rings.
Wednesday, December 17, 2008
NEW YORK, December 17 (UPI) -- The marriage of U.S. singer-actress Jennifer Lopez and her recording artist husband Marc Anthony is at the breaking point, sources told Us Weekly.
Lopez and Anthony, who wed four years ago and are the parents of 10-month-old twins, have been attending functions solo and aren't wearing their wedding rings, Us magazine reported on its Web site.
"They both didn't wear their rings on purpose," Us quoted a friend as saying. "Nothing Jennifer does is without purpose."
The two are also said to have had a tense Thanksgiving in which they didn't sit together and barely spoke to each other.
Friends claim Anthony is controlling and that Lopez blames him for her career taking a nosedive.
"Jennifer looked around and said, 'This is my life now? I'm a Long Island housewife?'" a source close to Lopez told the magazine. "She hates that everything she worked for went down the tubes."
Anthony's publicist maintains, however, that the couple is doing fine, Us said.

Jennifer Lopez lists Bel-Air home at $8.5 million
The four bedroom gated villa features a guesthouse, pool house and gardens on 7,357 square feet.

Actress-singer Jennifer Lopez has listed her French farmhouse estate in Bel-Air at $8.5 million. J-Lo, her singer husband, Marc Anthony, and their 9-month-old fraternal twins have been the subject of ongoing sightings in the Long Island community of Brookville, fueling speculation that they have relocated to New York. And she thought the 405 was bad?
The house that the pair just listed has four bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms in 7,357 square feet. The walled and gated villa sits on three-quarters of an acre and, according to the Multiple Listing Service, has a "European ambience."
There is a detached guesthouse, a pool and pool house, gardens and pathways around the property upon which to amble, though it's hard to imagine Lopez and Anthony as amblers.

Jennifer Lopez & Marc Anthony Design Life Around the Twins

Life couldn't be more different for Jennifer Lopez since the February birth of their boy and girl, the singer and husband Marc Anthony admit.
"We're just lucky," Anthony, 40, tells PEOPLE. "Our life is designed around the twins. Everything smells better, it tastes better, it even feels better on a minute-to-minute basis. We should just enjoy this."
The couple were arm in arm at Fashion Group International's Night of Stars Event at Cipriani Wall Street in New York Thursday night. Lopez and Prince presented the award to Donatella Versace.
It was a Versace palm-leaf dress that Lopez famously wore to the Grammys in 2000, but the new mom and her husband were at odds over whether she'd slip into a similar outfit these days.
"For me, it was one of the eye-opening moments of what a dress could actually do," Lopez, 39, tells PEOPLE. "And I was on the cover of the paper the next day, because of that Versace dress. No, I'd wear it [now]."
"Maybe as a wife, she wouldn't," Anthony interjected, as his spouse laughed.
