JLO takes marriage seriously

Washington (ANI): Jennifer Lopez has confessed that she realises the effort it takes to make a marriage last. The singer revealed her previous failed marriages to Ojani Noa and Cris Judd have helped her value her marriage to Marc Anthony.

"What people don't talk about, which is interesting to me, is how you have to put as much work into your relationships as you do into anything else," People magazine quoted her as telling Latina magazine.

"We put so much into our careers … but there's also a lot of work that goes into making a successful partnership and marriage. It's not easy," she added. The 40-year-old star further said: "That's how I know that this relationship is worth it, because a lot of people walk away too easily. But to take that step and actually get married – and I've done it three times, and two times were, you know, not good for me or for them – I'm gonna take it seriously."
