Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony 'Not Back Together' After Shannon De Lima Split

Marc Anthony and Shannon De Lima are calling it quits – but don't expect him to be finding comfort in the arms of an old flame.
Anthony and De Lima have separated after two years of marriage, according to reports. The couple had quietly married in the Dominican Republic in November of 2014 after dating for two years.




News of the split comes just one day after Anthony was spotted without his wedding ring at the Latin GRAMMYs, where he and ex-wife Jennifer Lopez also made headlines for exchanging a friendly kiss onstage after performing together. While the moment may have had some fans hoping for a rekindled romance between the two, a source tells ET that "Jennifer and Marc are not back together."
"That kiss onstage was totally innocent and egged on by the crowd," the source says. "Nothing there, nothing."
Anthony later poked fun at the moment – prompted by fans screaming "beso," the Spanish word for "kiss," from the audience -- by posting several photos of himself locking lips with other friends, both male and female.
This marks the third marriage and divorce for Anthony, 48, who was previously wed to former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres from 2000 to 2003, and to Lopez from 2004 to 2011. (The spouses separated in 2011, though their divorce was not finalized until 2014.)
In addition to his three children from his first marriage, Anthony is also a parent to 8-year-old twins Max and Emme with Lopez. The amicable exes have seemed to keep their relationship quite friendly through the years, with Anthony signing on to executive produce Lopez's upcoming all-Spanish album just last month.
Prior to her own split from Beau Casper Smart in August, Lopez even adorably posed with Anthony and her then-boyfriend backstage at her Vegas show. Later that night, she gave her ex-husband a cute shout-out during her performance, acknowledging his presence to her fans.
"You're an international legend and icon, but you're also my baby daddy," she joked as Anthony stood up and took a bow. The "You Sang to Me" singer was also visibly touched while Lopez performed one of her ballads during the concert and talked about their children as their photos came onscreen.

Corruption: Charley Boy Prevented Movement To And From The National Assembly Complex

Charley Boy

In a bid to bring an end to corruption in the country, Charles Oputa, also known as Charley Boy, has led protesters to the National Assembly, Premium Times reports.
The protesters on Tuesday prevented movement to and from the Assembly complex by blocking the main entrance of the gate by erecting five tents in front of the Assembly’s gate and stationed a van.
They are demanding the death penalty as punishment for stealing public funds; a slash of salaries of political office holders by 70 per cent; a stop of state/local government joint account; and public disclosure of details of National Assembly’s multi-billion naira budget.
They also want the National Assembly to review the constitution towards amending the clause that grants immunity to the president, vice-president, governors, and the deputy-governors. They want the law amended so the officials can be tried for criminal matters while in office.
They also demanded the scrapping of the Senate, as they want a unicameral legislature.

Carrie Fisher Reveals She Had an Affair With Harrison Ford on Star Wars: ‘It Was So Intense’

Princess Leia and Han Solo

Carrie Fisher is finally going public with a secret she has guarded closely for 40 years: When she was 19, she and Harrison Ford, then a 33-year-old married father of two, had a whirlwind three-month affair while filming the original Star Wars in 1976.
“It was so intense,” the actress-author, 60, tells PEOPLE exclusively of the real-life romance die-hard fans of the franchise have wished for since Han Solo and Princess Leia captured hearts on-screen.
“It was Han and Leia during the week, and Carrie and Harrison during the weekend,” she says.
After stumbling on often angst-ridden journals she kept while filming on location in London, she felt the time had come to open up about the formative experience. “It’s been 40 years,” explains Fisher, who went on to write The Princess Diarist, excerpted exclusively in this week’s issue.
Ford, who had a heads-up about the book from Fisher and received a draft, didn’t respond to PEOPLE’S request for comment.
After spending their first night together following a birthday party for director George Lucas, Fisher was wracked by self-doubt.
“I looked over at Harrison. A hero’s face — a few strands of hair fell over his noble, slightly furrowed brow,” she writes. “How could you ask such a shining specimen of a man to be satisfied with the likes of me?”
Although their unlikely romance took Fisher by complete surprise and ran its course once the film wrapped, she remembers the time fondly.
“I was so inexperienced, but I trusted something about him,” she says. “He was kind.”
