Like many couples, they were both caught up with their careers. They struggled to spend quality time together. Throw in a couple of kids, 7 years together where they fell into a routine, habits and taking each other for granted.
Marilyn Monroe famously created the image of a white dress blowing over a subway grate in the movie The Seven Year Itch and the phrase took on the now popular meaning we associate with it today. When you look around at your friends and family in long term relationships, they are no different to Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony. They are trying to make it work in a demanding world where we are busy with the internet and all the different aspects of our life which require our attention. How much time do we have for love and the most important people in our lives? How much do we actually remember to show them small courtesies, respect and all the little things that are so important when first dating? How do we keep it all fresh and new?
The modern day romance is fast becoming old like yesterday's news. Successful relationships are as rare as gems. It's about investing time and hard work into the people around us. It is so easy for us to lose touch with one another and for people to fall out of our lives. In some cases, they are friends and family, in others, it's actually our husband or wife.
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are worth $240 million. They both have had failed marriages - this is Lopez's third and Anthony's second divorce. Are some people not relationship material or unlucky in love? Think Elizabeth Taylor and her many walks down the aisle.
Rumours about their rocky marriage have plagued them for three years. In a recent interview, Lopez lost her rhythm when asked if Anthony was jealous of her scene on the beach in her video clip - a sign no doubt of tension that the couple had been dealing with. When she turned up last weekend at the Bafta Hollywood event where guest of honours were Prince William and Kate, Anthony and her wedding band were absent.

They say it is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. And they have two beautiful children to show for it. Now they've announced their split, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, the Latino King and Queen of Music will go their separate ways to hopefully find happiness and love, an elusive commodity which money can't buy.
