0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:32.640
<v Speaker 1>want to see this girl right now. You know what's crazy.

0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:34.520

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:36.599

0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:45.800
<v Speaker 1>on a Monday because the news just broke. Now, you

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:48.040
<v Speaker 1>guys are going to hear this on Friday, obviously, because

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 1>we dropped new episodes on Friday, but we could not

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>hold back with the news that broke over the weekend.

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:55.520
<v Speaker 1>By the time you guys hear this, we may have

0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 1>more details, but we're gonna spill all the tea on

0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the wedding. The stopped the World benefit is official. I

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>don't know how you felt about it, Honey, but I

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:08.400
<v Speaker 1>want to hear what your reaction was when you found

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 1>out that they got married in Vegas. I was like,

0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Las Vegas, I'm like why. I was kind of disappointed.

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why. I was expecting some very tale

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 1>situation from these two after they linked up a second time. Okay, Honey,

0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I promise you. I swear to you. You know there

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:29.960
<v Speaker 1>are some shows that do this where it's like, oh,

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take this position and you take the

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:35.680
<v Speaker 1>other position, and we'll we'll be opposing even though we

0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 1>both think the same way. I swear to you, honey,

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 1>and I could not be further apart on this subject

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>right now, because the minute I saw Vegas, I thought, yes,

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>it's the only thing she hasn't done. It was too

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:56.680
<v Speaker 1>dusty for her. Man, she's like a queen. But she

0:01:56.760 --> 0:01:59.560
<v Speaker 1>looked like she was ready to make her first holy communion.

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean she looked like she was, like, seriously eight

0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 1>years old. Look at how virginal and like beautiful and

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>pure she looks. I'm telling not that, no, and I'm

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>not dragging her. I'm actually giving that virginal. No. I'm sorry,

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.079
<v Speaker 1>it's just virginal and Jennifer Lopus together kind of made

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>me chuckle. I love her and I adore her, but

0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:18.960
<v Speaker 1>you know it's crazy. My husband was like, she made

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.440
<v Speaker 1>waiting where white. I'm like, unless you get married when

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>your fourteen, I don't think nobody should be wearing white.

0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.920
<v Speaker 1>But whatever, Oh my gosh, I went there. No, but

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:28.800
<v Speaker 1>for real. That's why I said, it's like, this is

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>in no way, shape or form. And I promise you,

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 1>because you know how I feel about j Lo I

0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:39.440
<v Speaker 1>would never drag my girl. But I thought, absolutely, yes,

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 1>this is this is the move because she's done the

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>big wedding, right, like we know that she's done the

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 1>big wedding that was orchestrated, that had like six wedding

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.959
<v Speaker 1>planners and like you know, everything under the sun with

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.320
<v Speaker 1>Mark Anthony. And then she had like, oh no, it

0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>was Mark Anthony, the backyard wedding. I think Chris Judd

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:02.320
<v Speaker 1>was the big wedding. Right here we go. Chris Judd,

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>I think was the big wedding. And then yes, and

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 1>then I think Mark Anthony was like the backyard wedding

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>where we got the helicopter photos of them. Remember that,

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>I like that dress, that was my favorite dress, beautiful,

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:18.839
<v Speaker 1>gorgeous dress. But now I feel like this was a

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.679
<v Speaker 1>move that only j Lo could do. I love how

0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Ben was like about about it, like he didn't even care.

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>He was just like, yeah, I'll bring out a white

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>tuxedo jacket because I have a couple of those in

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 1>my closet. You know. I just think all of it

0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:35.400
<v Speaker 1>was just so amazing. And the fact that she announced

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 1>it on her site. I thought that she like really

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 1>owns this one. I don't know, what do you think, honey,

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, I guess the no frills wedding is cute

0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>when you're young, you know, like Britney Spears teenager type

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 1>of thing. I guess, But I don't know. I just

0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.920
<v Speaker 1>expected so much more from them, Like it's like, finally

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:54.880
<v Speaker 1>they got back together. They're gonna do it. This is

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna be some fairy tale wedding. I don't know. I

0:03:57.440 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 1>expected different. When I saw that picture of him in

0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom, I was like, I don't like this at all. Yeah,

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 1>that's right. I hope you used purell after because you know,

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>those bathrooms are very trafficked, especially in Vegas. They got

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>lots of people coming in and out those doors. They

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 1>waited twenty years, Carolina for this a long time. Yeah,

0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:17.440
<v Speaker 1>and it's almost like maybe that was part of it.

0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe the build up was so strong that they were like,

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.360
<v Speaker 1>you know what, there's nothing that can top this love.

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.279
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing that can top our love for each other.

0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Like they both have all the money in the world,

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>they both have everything at their disposal, Like if they

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 1>wanted any flower, if they wanted any type of wedding

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 1>plan or any type of dress, like, they could have it.

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:40.479
<v Speaker 1>So maybe this was their way of saying, like, it

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>truly is about the love. Now, I will say this,

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I do not believe that this was spontaneous. What are

0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:51.599
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts on that. I don't know. It's just like,

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:53.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why. I feel like they just grabbed

0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:55.040
<v Speaker 1>the family was like, let's go to Vegas and of

0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>course hair and makeup people, come on, let's go, let's

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:00.520
<v Speaker 1>go to Vegas and let's get married. Yeah, don't think

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.960
<v Speaker 1>that j Loo moves that way. I think that everything

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:06.200
<v Speaker 1>in her life is orchestrated. I think everything in her

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:09.960
<v Speaker 1>life is planned to the second. So for me, I

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>don't believe it was as spontaneous as they like for

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>us to believe. I think that maybe they had it

0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.600
<v Speaker 1>in their head Okay, this is gonna be the weekend

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:19.840
<v Speaker 1>and we're not going to tell anybody that kind of thing.

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:22.880
<v Speaker 1>But I absolutely do not believe that they did not

0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:26.520
<v Speaker 1>tip anybody off prior to it. What makes it good

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>about this is the fact that they were able to

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>control the narrative. Nothing got leaked. She shared her pictures

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.680
<v Speaker 1>on her own newsletter, like they controlled how this got out,

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 1>and they control how it looked. So I guess that part.

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Kudos to them that part. But then also, um, I

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.960
<v Speaker 1>think we're glossing over the big headline, and the big

0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:50.560
<v Speaker 1>headline is that she signed it Mrs Jennifer Lynn Affleck.

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:55.159
<v Speaker 1>She is no longer j Lo Honey, she's bugging her soul.

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>She didn't even hypheny. I peeped that there was a

0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:02.279
<v Speaker 1>name change, but I assumed there was Lopez Affleck. No. Well,

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:03.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know, did you see something. I

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>saw that she wrote Jennifer Lynn Affleck, And in my mind,

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking, did she go for it? Is she really

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:11.799
<v Speaker 1>going to do the thing like that I did? Because

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.000
<v Speaker 1>if she is going to do it, she's in for

0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>a headache. So let's discuss. Let's talk about it. Carolina

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:22.040
<v Speaker 1>from Experience did you change your last name to Nooni's

0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.000
<v Speaker 1>last name. You know what. The only place where I hyphenated,

0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:28.039
<v Speaker 1>which is German Martinez, was on my way to my

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 1>wedding license. I don't know if that means I changed

0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.920
<v Speaker 1>my name legally. What do you What do you say, Carolina?

0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I did not You did not know, because do you

0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 1>see these khanas that I have, these grays that I

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:41.840
<v Speaker 1>have in my hair. This is all from changing my

0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:46.839
<v Speaker 1>name eleven years ago. This ship doesn't stop when you

0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.840
<v Speaker 1>change your name officially. You have to get a new

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Social Security card, you gotta change your license, you gotta

0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.360
<v Speaker 1>get your name changed on your health cards. You've got

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>to get your name changed on every single credit card,

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:04.920
<v Speaker 1>your miles. I lost so many Delta sky miles because

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I went from Bermudez to grow the miles. Girl, you

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>will never get them back, and I was so pissed. Carolina.

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you a question. Rewind a little bit. Okay,

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:16.520
<v Speaker 1>when did you come to the decision of I'm going

0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>to change my name? Like how did did did Mark

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 1>pressure you to do that? Or did your family say

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.240
<v Speaker 1>you gotta change your name because they're Latinos and you

0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:25.720
<v Speaker 1>know Latinos love doing that. Yeah, you know what. I

0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>don't think there was really any pressure from anyone. I

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 1>think it was all self inflicted. I think that I

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 1>am a product of some really old school Latino parents.

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>That that is the assumption that when you get married,

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:42.920
<v Speaker 1>you change your name, you take on your husband's name,

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>and so from the very beginning, I went through the

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:51.680
<v Speaker 1>process and the paperwork. But it's never ending. When I

0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>tell you, it is a chore. There are websites, there

0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>are businesses that have been created. Carolina. At least you

0:07:58.200 --> 0:07:59.760
<v Speaker 1>got an alias. Now you know you want to do

0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.880
<v Speaker 1>a scam as name? Oh yeah, you know what. Actually

0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>that is true. I should use that more to my advantage.

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't do it enough. Honey. Actually, thank you for

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>bringing that to my attention. I'm choking. Don't take no

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>no criminal advice from me. But you was open off

0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>your man and you was like, I'm changing my name.

0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>You really loved him and you was really excited to

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.840
<v Speaker 1>do this. I know I felt. I felt so hard

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>for it. Hu I'm telling you, he he really rocked

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 1>my world. So here's here's what happened. I said, I

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>built my name professionally as Carolina Bermudez and that was

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.360
<v Speaker 1>never going to change. So everything else though, as far

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.560
<v Speaker 1>as like and we didn't have kids obviously when we

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.080
<v Speaker 1>got married, so I said, I would like for us

0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to be a family unit. When I go and pick

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.200
<v Speaker 1>up my kids, I want them to see that, you know,

0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I am their mother. And by the way, if you

0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:51.400
<v Speaker 1>have not changed your name, I'm actually giving you credit

0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:53.600
<v Speaker 1>because I think I'm the biggest dummy on the planet

0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:57.080
<v Speaker 1>for doing this. It has made my life a living hell.

0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:00.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even kidding you. So I think that because

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:03.240
<v Speaker 1>I adopted the idea that I was going to take

0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 1>on my husband's last name, it made it, I guess,

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.600
<v Speaker 1>easier for me because then I said, Okay, I still

0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:11.959
<v Speaker 1>get to keep my identity. I still get to keep

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Carolina Bermuda's professionally public but privately, I am, you know,

0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:20.120
<v Speaker 1>taking my husband's last name. So you basically didn't No,

0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.520
<v Speaker 1>I didn't you know where I did do it on

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 1>What's app For some reason, I hyphenated it. Girl. You know,

0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:30.439
<v Speaker 1>my mom came to me. Why, she said, how dare

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.679
<v Speaker 1>you put a man's last name? Why wouldn't you put

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:36.760
<v Speaker 1>your mother's last name? You know, like my mom's last

0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>You know how Hispanic families used dad's name and then

0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:43.199
<v Speaker 1>mom's last name. My mom, My mom was offended when

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I hyphenated with my husband's last name on WhatsApp. I

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:47.920
<v Speaker 1>think it's still there just to bother her, because I'm like,

0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.480
<v Speaker 1>how dare you tell me what to do with my husband?

0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.679
<v Speaker 1>It's not a life in Spanglish episode. If we don't

0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 1>get under honey's mother's skin, that's that's that's a fact.

0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for That's the only place where I publicly kind

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 1>of like and I got some ship behind it. So

0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 1>never again, never again. Well, it'll be interesting to see

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>if she really does adopt the aff like last name,

0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 1>because I think that there's a lot that goes to that.

0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:14.840
<v Speaker 1>But I also, because you know, I'm a thinker, I

0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 1>was thinking to myself, as far as Hollywood goes, this

0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>is a power move right here because Ben Affleck, if

0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you think about it, in his past, you know Oscar, winner,

0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Golden Globe, you know, winner nominee, all these other accolades

0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 1>and things. He is also a very prolific screenwriter and

0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:43.200
<v Speaker 1>he's got all these projects. Maybe maybe as if, as

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.280
<v Speaker 1>if she doesn't need the power move, but this could

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.800
<v Speaker 1>be the little that she needs to get her to

0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>that spot in Hollywood. How much bigger does this woman

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.200
<v Speaker 1>want to be? This woman was waiting for Elon Musk

0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 1>up in the moon when you went up there at

0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:05.200
<v Speaker 1>this world already she really is. But that's why I

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.679
<v Speaker 1>was thinking about it. I'm like, why, Jennifer Lopez, of

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:12.040
<v Speaker 1>all people, do you think she would take on his

0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 1>last name, especially for somebody has established as she is,

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.040
<v Speaker 1>especially as for somebody who's such an icon in our community,

0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, for her to do that, I feel like

0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:25.880
<v Speaker 1>that is really her gesture to him that she's all his,

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.080
<v Speaker 1>because she never took on Mark Anthony's last name. I

0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>don't even know that man's last name. I think it's

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:34.120
<v Speaker 1>like I think, no, I think that's his middle names.

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:36.839
<v Speaker 1>That's what it is, Moonie, that's what it is. The

0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:40.600
<v Speaker 1>little girl is called Emmy Moonis, and the boys moonist

0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 1>being So. Yeah, she definitely did not take those last

0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:51.400
<v Speaker 1>last night, Ohani Noamoco, Chris Judd much Oh my gosh. Yeah,

0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.040
<v Speaker 1>So it will be that. I mean he is still

0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.320
<v Speaker 1>living off of that. But yes, maybe Carolina, maybe maybe

0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:00.240
<v Speaker 1>this is to prove to us, to the world and

0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to Ben that this is it, this is her final

0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:05.839
<v Speaker 1>stop when it comes to marriages, like I'm going to

0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.320
<v Speaker 1>change my name. So yeah, see how serious I am?

0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:10.800
<v Speaker 1>And you don't keep dragging me talking about the modern

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.560
<v Speaker 1>day Elizabeth Tailor. I feel like that was it. I

0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:16.439
<v Speaker 1>think that's the clincher, that she's trying to send the

0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>message to everybody that this is forever for j Lo.

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 1>This is gonna be it. Now. Here's the thing. I

0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.000
<v Speaker 1>want to bring this up because you know, I had

0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:28.679
<v Speaker 1>to dive deep into this, which I haven't slept since

0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>I got the news. Gotta be honest with you, I'm

0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>super excited for her. One red flag that came to

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 1>my attention. Why was her family the only ones in attendance?

0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 1>From what we know today, we know that her daughter

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 1>and her son were the ones that we're taking pictures

0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:51.160
<v Speaker 1>of them, and they were the witnesses. Was what a lupe?

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:53.960
<v Speaker 1>There was Mama there because you know Mama loves her

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 1>some ben Affleck. She's the one that kept on telling

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:57.920
<v Speaker 1>her he was the one that got away. Where was

0:12:57.960 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Linda Lopez? Where was Linda? But Linda? I feel like

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.559
<v Speaker 1>in my sister where it has been actles children with

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 1>them too what you want. Jennifer Garner there too. No,

0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Jennifer Garner wants none of that. She wants none of

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:13.200
<v Speaker 1>this smoke. Um. Where's Matt Damon? Where's her bestie? Oh? Yeah,

0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:16.400
<v Speaker 1>those two are like twins right right. So from every

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:20.080
<v Speaker 1>account that I read, it was that only Jennifer's team

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:23.920
<v Speaker 1>and children were in attendance. I believe some people said

0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:27.319
<v Speaker 1>that her mother was there. So then why was his

0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:30.520
<v Speaker 1>family not included? Was it because they wanted to keep

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:33.040
<v Speaker 1>it under wraps. The more people that knew, the more

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.440
<v Speaker 1>that might get out. I don't know, So I'm just

0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:38.320
<v Speaker 1>curious about that. Do you think that's a red flag

0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:41.440
<v Speaker 1>that only his her family was invited? I don't think so.

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I think maybe he just decided, like which is good.

0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:47.439
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it was a really spontaneous, last minute thing.

0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Maybe his family wasn't available. Maybe they were all in

0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Jennifer's house and where it wasn't Jennifer Jennifer's house hopped

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:55.199
<v Speaker 1>in the private jet because they were like last night,

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:57.000
<v Speaker 1>we we jumped on a plane and went to Vegas

0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.280
<v Speaker 1>to get married. We stood online with some people and

0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 1>we just did it. Maybe it was super spontaneous and

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:05.480
<v Speaker 1>not orchestrated just to look like a simple way. Yeah,

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:09.480
<v Speaker 1>I think there might be something to that because especially, yeah,

0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:11.080
<v Speaker 1>we will get to it. Oh, no, we are going

0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:13.560
<v Speaker 1>to get to the diets because I want them all.

0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to know it all. And then also reportedly

0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.560
<v Speaker 1>she used one of her dresses from a movie that

0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.400
<v Speaker 1>she was in and then she had a zuhem raw

0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.040
<v Speaker 1>original or something like that. And I only say it

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>like that because I'm not, you know, in the fashion world,

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.320
<v Speaker 1>but I would guess that people in fashion would say

0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:31.800
<v Speaker 1>it that way. I don't know. I feel like they're

0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:34.360
<v Speaker 1>just trying to downplay it because he's forty nine, she's

0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty two, and they're like, let's just chill out. Let's

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 1>not make this big drama. Let's just get married and

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 1>move on. Oh he got a jacket from his closet.

0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I got an old dress. I don't know. I just

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:46.680
<v Speaker 1>don't feel like this is j Lo. Yeah, but you

0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 1>know what, it's not like when you're in your fifties,

0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have a bunch of Madrina's. You're gonna have

0:14:50.960 --> 0:14:55.240
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of old Madrina's walking down the aisle that

0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:57.880
<v Speaker 1>that I would hope not. How old are your brides

0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and he's gonna be in their forties and their fifties.

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Hell no, that would just be you and Ben. Nobody else. Well,

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't care what anybody says. J Lo is about

0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to be fifty three, I think, and you can verify

0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:10.760
<v Speaker 1>this for me if I'm wrong. Is she's about to

0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:16.440
<v Speaker 1>be fifty three. She's this woman looks twelve. The hairstyle,

0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the makeup, everything was perfection. In my opinion. I thought

0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:27.120
<v Speaker 1>she just looked so beautiful and and like I said,

0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 1>so pure and virginal and just like, oh my gosh,

0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Like I want this to go great for her. I'm

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>really really rooting for them me too. I want this

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.120
<v Speaker 1>to be here happily ever after. She definitely deserves it.

0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.880
<v Speaker 1>She keeps trying, so you gotta give it to the woman.

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>She's hopeless, romantic, she wants to be a wife, and

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 1>I really hope that this is the one for her.

0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:50.880
<v Speaker 1>I still don't know about the name change situation though, Caroline.

0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm still stuck at that. I am too. I think

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:55.800
<v Speaker 1>that is baffling. Maybe she's gonna pull a move like

0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.520
<v Speaker 1>and we'll call it the Carolina. Maybe she's still professionally

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:00.800
<v Speaker 1>going to be Jennifer Lopez, but be hind the scenes,

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 1>she's gonna be Mrs Affleck. And then there was a

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.720
<v Speaker 1>whole other discussion about did she change her name to

0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Affleck because they might try to have a baby together

0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:14.280
<v Speaker 1>or something like that. You know, I mean, could you imagine,

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:17.720
<v Speaker 1>because then she would have a baby Affleck. Then it

0:16:17.760 --> 0:16:20.360
<v Speaker 1>would make sense when she goes to her parents teaching night, right,

0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:22.280
<v Speaker 1>she want to make sure they know she's the mother.

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I'll just right exactly because when she walks in, they're

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like, I'm sorry, excuse me, who's mommy? Or

0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.360
<v Speaker 1>who's your son or who's your daughter? Yeah? Yeah, because

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:32.400
<v Speaker 1>when Jayla walks in, they're gonna be asking her questions

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.840
<v Speaker 1>like that, be questioning the difference between the last names. Right,

0:16:34.880 --> 0:16:37.160
<v Speaker 1>why are you Lopez? And why is your child Affleck?

0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:40.600
<v Speaker 1>We need this clarified. But you know what, Carolina, there

0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.640
<v Speaker 1>are alternatives, you know, to changing your name, like if

0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you get married, Right, there's obviously the first one, which

0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.080
<v Speaker 1>is keep your last name, right, Okay. You can also

0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:52.440
<v Speaker 1>hypen it hypen it your name. Some people make their

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.960
<v Speaker 1>maiden name their middle name, so that you would still

0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.680
<v Speaker 1>be that would be your new middle name. I don't

0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:01.160
<v Speaker 1>know how that would work out. And of course there's

0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:03.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, just change your name to your husband's last name.

0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:07.000
<v Speaker 1>But there's also this is fairly new, you can create

0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a new last name. There's like new more I guess

0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:13.120
<v Speaker 1>progressive people that are just creating a whole new last name.

0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes they mash up both their last names and find

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:18.600
<v Speaker 1>a new name that both of them can have that

0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:20.800
<v Speaker 1>has no ties to either one of their families. That

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:25.600
<v Speaker 1>would devastate me. It's kind of man, we are so opposite, honey,

0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, that's fun though. That would be so

0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:31.360
<v Speaker 1>fun though, to come up with a whole But then

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:34.120
<v Speaker 1>what happens that we both have to change our names legally,

0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.119
<v Speaker 1>new passport, new social security course, And maybe it wouldn't

0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.159
<v Speaker 1>be that fun. It just sounds fun. So, for example,

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:40.800
<v Speaker 1>if we were going to do a mashup of my

0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>last name and my husband's last name, Bermuda's Grossman, we

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:49.760
<v Speaker 1>could do Berman. Berman would be like a neutral I guess. Like,

0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:52.199
<v Speaker 1>but see, my last name makes me so proud, and

0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that's something that we you know, we've

0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:58.359
<v Speaker 1>discussed on this podcast before, Like I am genuinely proud

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:00.359
<v Speaker 1>of my last name. I'm proud of what it's dance,

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.200
<v Speaker 1>for the hard work that my mom and dad put

0:18:03.200 --> 0:18:06.760
<v Speaker 1>into creating our family, and and there's just something that

0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:11.120
<v Speaker 1>was I did go through a morning period when I

0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 1>gave up my last name. It really was tough. And

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.600
<v Speaker 1>my husband even said to me because on my American

0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Express it was still my maiden name. He was like,

0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.200
<v Speaker 1>you're holding onto it, huh, And I said, yeah, I

0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:24.400
<v Speaker 1>have a holding on to it. It's hard to give

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:26.919
<v Speaker 1>up all of your It's really kind of giving up

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.840
<v Speaker 1>your identity and everything that you knew and everything that

0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:33.879
<v Speaker 1>you've been taught and you worked for. It's something that

0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 1>is so hard to explain, but once you give that up.

0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.199
<v Speaker 1>I did go through a period where I was like

0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:41.199
<v Speaker 1>really sad, where I had to like cut up my

0:18:41.240 --> 0:18:44.360
<v Speaker 1>old cards and you know, I had to go through

0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:47.439
<v Speaker 1>the whole process. But I mean now I think that

0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm very proud of my husband's last name. And I

0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.960
<v Speaker 1>remind my kids all the time. Because kids are pretty terrible,

0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:55.160
<v Speaker 1>they like to make fun of them because they're all grossman,

0:18:55.320 --> 0:18:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, but I always tell them, I'm like, you'd

0:18:57.200 --> 0:18:59.720
<v Speaker 1>be proud of your last name, Like that's our family,

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.720
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know how if I could ever give

0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:05.760
<v Speaker 1>mine up entirely and his up. You know, I think

0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:07.920
<v Speaker 1>that there's just so much more that goes into it. Now,

0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>let me ask, how do you feel about you know,

0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 1>let's say places where they don't know you before when

0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.840
<v Speaker 1>you would get there, you make a reservation Carlina. As

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.119
<v Speaker 1>soon as you would get there, it was it was implied,

0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:21.679
<v Speaker 1>associated and quite visible that you were Latina. Now that

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 1>you have a last name like Grossman, do you feel

0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:25.479
<v Speaker 1>any different? Like when you go place like do these

0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:28.000
<v Speaker 1>people think I'm a white woman? Like? Doesn't make you

0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:31.320
<v Speaker 1>feel any which way? Um? You know? Funny enough, I

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:35.240
<v Speaker 1>would say that that situation, I've encountered it where people

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>are confused and there's generally there's genuine confusion on their

0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:41.960
<v Speaker 1>face and they're like they look at me and they

0:19:42.000 --> 0:19:44.840
<v Speaker 1>look at the name and they look at me and

0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 1>they say, Carolina, I'm sorry, what is it Grossman? And

0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:53.680
<v Speaker 1>I say, yes, two ends at the end, by the way, please. Um. Yeah,

0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 1>it's something that I guess there is that biased or

0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:59.560
<v Speaker 1>that confusion there. But listen, there are plenty of um

0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.359
<v Speaker 1>ha man a Jewish people. There's plenty of plenty of

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Latinos who are Jewish, and I have a bunch of

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.320
<v Speaker 1>friends who are Cuban. They like to call themselves Jubians.

0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:10.920
<v Speaker 1>But I think that's cute. You've never heard Jubian. Yeah.

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Down in Miami, there's um one of my dear friends

0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:17.120
<v Speaker 1>when I was working at Why One in Miami. She's

0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Jewish and her family is Cuban, and there's a big,

0:20:21.080 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 1>big community of um Jewish Cubans down there, and also

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:26.560
<v Speaker 1>of other you know, I have Mexican friends who are

0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:30.600
<v Speaker 1>are Jewish and other countries. But um, yeah, I think

0:20:30.640 --> 0:20:35.639
<v Speaker 1>that there's an assumption made when you see Carolina Grossman

0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:41.000
<v Speaker 1>because they don't go with Carolina Carolina Carolina, and then

0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I show up and they're like doing a double take.

0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:46.119
<v Speaker 1>But um No, there's nothing that would ever make me

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.560
<v Speaker 1>go back and change it back to what my maiden

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:52.520
<v Speaker 1>name was, just because of you know, the family unit

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:54.720
<v Speaker 1>and what I wanted to create there. But Honey, I

0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.679
<v Speaker 1>wanted to ask you is there. This brings up the

0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:01.640
<v Speaker 1>whole subject of twenty years. They waited to be together

0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:04.960
<v Speaker 1>right twenty years and it was a long time and

0:21:05.000 --> 0:21:08.159
<v Speaker 1>they both had relationships, they had failed relationships, they had

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:12.120
<v Speaker 1>great long term relationships in between. But was there ever

0:21:12.320 --> 0:21:15.000
<v Speaker 1>a person in your life that you think got away

0:21:15.000 --> 0:21:21.439
<v Speaker 1>from you. I'm from me, but I know I got

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:25.720
<v Speaker 1>away from a lot of motherfuckers. Oh my gosh, why

0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:30.120
<v Speaker 1>did you see my line? Yes, I don't look to that.

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I sometimes I still see exes and stuff and I see,

0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:36.160
<v Speaker 1>don't judge me, But I'm like, God, I look better

0:21:36.200 --> 0:21:38.119
<v Speaker 1>than that motherfucker's wife. You know what I'm saying, like,

0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:40.719
<v Speaker 1>oh Jesus Christ. And I know it's like I know

0:21:40.960 --> 0:21:43.439
<v Speaker 1>they must either hear of me, of seeing me and

0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:46.320
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh damn, that could have been my wife.

0:21:46.800 --> 0:21:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I know that in their mind, because you know what, Carolina,

0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:52.719
<v Speaker 1>every serious relationship I had, it was either let's get married,

0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:54.960
<v Speaker 1>let's move in. It was always like they wanted to

0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:58.119
<v Speaker 1>get serious, but I was never really ready. I remember

0:21:58.119 --> 0:22:01.399
<v Speaker 1>my my first serious relationship, when I was like sixteen.

0:22:02.240 --> 0:22:03.639
<v Speaker 1>He went away to the Navy. He was like, I

0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 1>want to get back. We're gonna get married. I was

0:22:05.400 --> 0:22:08.919
<v Speaker 1>gone right after that. Yeah, I dated a drug dealer,

0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:11.119
<v Speaker 1>let's get married. A couple of months later he was

0:22:11.160 --> 0:22:14.240
<v Speaker 1>in jail. So and then I can keep on forever.

0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 1>But every single relationship I had, you got locked up,

0:22:18.040 --> 0:22:22.119
<v Speaker 1>won't let me out. They gave him a battle life,

0:22:22.680 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 1>they gave her life. God bless his soul. He is

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.680
<v Speaker 1>still around. But I know that when they see me today,

0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.840
<v Speaker 1>present day, they're like, damn, I should have locked that

0:22:30.880 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>bitch down. M I think we are in the same

0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:37.040
<v Speaker 1>boat because for me, there I have zero regrets about

0:22:37.040 --> 0:22:39.439
<v Speaker 1>any of my old relationships. And also I have no

0:22:39.480 --> 0:22:42.199
<v Speaker 1>ill will. I'm happy for you that you're living with

0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:46.320
<v Speaker 1>your dusty old wife over in wherever no man's land.

0:22:46.560 --> 0:22:49.520
<v Speaker 1>I wish you nothing but the best. I actually do

0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:53.040
<v Speaker 1>not look up x's. UM. I will encounter x's whenever

0:22:53.080 --> 0:22:54.919
<v Speaker 1>they reach out to me on social media, and then

0:22:54.960 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I do the thing where um, I'll click on the

0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 1>profile and then I'll be like, okay, scroll for a

0:23:00.520 --> 0:23:04.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit. But I really do not actively seek out exs.

0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:07.399
<v Speaker 1>I've had a couple of exes that have encountered my

0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:11.320
<v Speaker 1>social media and they've complimented like, oh, your kids are

0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:13.800
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful. I always knew you were gonna be a

0:23:13.840 --> 0:23:17.720
<v Speaker 1>great mother, like look at your life. UM, things like

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:20.240
<v Speaker 1>that where it's like, okay, well thank you, But then

0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I did it, Like there's no conversation there, so for me,

0:23:23.359 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 1>there was never really anyone that got away. You don't

0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:28.600
<v Speaker 1>want to get caught up like talking reminiscent, trying to

0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:32.200
<v Speaker 1>relive nothing like we're out here, we're married, good homes,

0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:34.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, family career. You don't want to get champed

0:23:34.240 --> 0:23:37.040
<v Speaker 1>up with an X that's obviously an ex for a reason,

0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:39.240
<v Speaker 1>because I don't want to relive none of that either.

0:23:39.280 --> 0:23:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't actively look up excess, but if they if

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:43.919
<v Speaker 1>I come across them, or if I see them, I'm like,

0:23:43.960 --> 0:23:46.840
<v Speaker 1>oh God, he looks terrible. Oh Jesus Christ, I dodged

0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:50.640
<v Speaker 1>that bullet. You know what's crazy, Carrely, when I had

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:55.920
<v Speaker 1>when I had my stroke, right, um, I didn't inventory

0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:58.960
<v Speaker 1>of other potential husbands I could have had and how

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:01.320
<v Speaker 1>they would have reacted or how they would have treated me.

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:03.919
<v Speaker 1>I told my husband, I said, I went back and

0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:05.840
<v Speaker 1>I thought about everyone I dated, and what if I

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:07.880
<v Speaker 1>would have married this guy he would have been a dick.

0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 1>What if I would have married this guy, he would

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:11.040
<v Speaker 1>have been in the streets. What if I would have

0:24:11.080 --> 0:24:12.840
<v Speaker 1>married this guy, he would not have been able to

0:24:12.840 --> 0:24:15.160
<v Speaker 1>help me with physical therapy. So I did a rundown,

0:24:15.240 --> 0:24:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and in the end, I was like I chose the

0:24:17.560 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 1>perfect man, not because I'm married to him, but that's

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:23.399
<v Speaker 1>the only time that I've actually given so much thought

0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>into all my exes. Well, you know, I am um

0:24:27.119 --> 0:24:31.200
<v Speaker 1>the president of the Nooni fan club, and I really

0:24:31.240 --> 0:24:33.919
<v Speaker 1>appreciate everything that he did to get you through that

0:24:33.920 --> 0:24:35.880
<v Speaker 1>time because people don't may not know. And if you're

0:24:35.920 --> 0:24:38.359
<v Speaker 1>just finding us, by the way, thank you, Um, but

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you may not know that. You know, Honey did suffer

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.640
<v Speaker 1>from a stroke in she has come back better than ever.

0:24:45.119 --> 0:24:47.719
<v Speaker 1>And I do think that a lot of the credit,

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:51.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, is not only mentally that you did it

0:24:51.200 --> 0:24:53.959
<v Speaker 1>mentally and physically you did the work, but that you

0:24:54.040 --> 0:24:57.840
<v Speaker 1>had the support system of Noonie and your sister to

0:24:57.960 --> 0:25:00.760
<v Speaker 1>guide you through all of those off times. And there

0:25:00.800 --> 0:25:04.240
<v Speaker 1>are many people who are like tapping out. Nope, not

0:25:04.359 --> 0:25:07.280
<v Speaker 1>for me, They don't want to deal. I know someone

0:25:07.359 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Carolina that's going through that right now. He suffered a

0:25:10.800 --> 0:25:14.199
<v Speaker 1>stroke and his wife left him. She said, I'm not

0:25:14.280 --> 0:25:16.080
<v Speaker 1>built for this, like I don't know what to do,

0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:18.480
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know how to and he is devastated

0:25:18.560 --> 0:25:21.119
<v Speaker 1>right now. Somebody I knew, and you know, it happened

0:25:21.119 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 1>to him before it happened to me. And he's like,

0:25:22.640 --> 0:25:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm going through it. I'm so messed up. My wife

0:25:25.080 --> 0:25:28.600
<v Speaker 1>broke up with me. You know, marriage is something that um,

0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:32.320
<v Speaker 1>not everybody takes seriously. But yo, when you marry somebody,

0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:34.360
<v Speaker 1>you better be ready to you know, dug it out

0:25:34.400 --> 0:25:37.440
<v Speaker 1>with them because ship is going to happen, and make

0:25:37.480 --> 0:25:39.280
<v Speaker 1>sure you pick the right spouse. And we know when

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I tell people, like when I talk to my girlfriends

0:25:41.320 --> 0:25:44.000
<v Speaker 1>that are still not married, I'm like, you better pick

0:25:44.119 --> 0:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the right partner because life is gonna come at you hard. Shi.

0:25:48.160 --> 0:25:49.720
<v Speaker 1>It is gonna happen, and if you don't pick the

0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:53.240
<v Speaker 1>right partner, you're gonna be up ships creak with no paddle.

0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 1>That's the same. That's exactly the same. And I couldn't

0:25:56.960 --> 0:26:00.040
<v Speaker 1>agree with you more on this point because that's a

0:26:00.160 --> 0:26:05.560
<v Speaker 1>vowel right for better or for worse, in sickness and

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:07.960
<v Speaker 1>in health. And a lot of people like to write

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 1>their own vows, and um, I truly believe I could

0:26:12.000 --> 0:26:14.600
<v Speaker 1>have never you didn't write your own vows. No, girl,

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:17.160
<v Speaker 1>I've just repeated whatever the man said. Oh, I mean

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:19.879
<v Speaker 1>we did that too, But then I was like like

0:26:19.960 --> 0:26:24.320
<v Speaker 1>crying through my vows, doing the ugly cry. Did I cry, yes,

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:27.040
<v Speaker 1>because I was just so emotional. I didn't I couldn't

0:26:27.080 --> 0:26:31.200
<v Speaker 1>believe that it was happening. Um. I definitely think that

0:26:31.200 --> 0:26:33.080
<v Speaker 1>that is something that people need to give a lot

0:26:33.080 --> 0:26:35.640
<v Speaker 1>of thought because you could be riding high one day

0:26:36.080 --> 0:26:39.719
<v Speaker 1>and the next day you are on the bottom, you know.

0:26:39.880 --> 0:26:45.120
<v Speaker 1>And my my Abulita used to say, el mundo, el

0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:49.560
<v Speaker 1>mundo seeing it you know, Um, I think that's how

0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:51.400
<v Speaker 1>how you would say it. She's like, she would say.

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Dominicans use that too, they say, and yes, yes, and

0:26:57.560 --> 0:27:00.359
<v Speaker 1>that's what she's used that saying too. And it's truly

0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:02.359
<v Speaker 1>you never know where you're gonna have. You really don't.

0:27:02.400 --> 0:27:05.080
<v Speaker 1>And now, honey, you know, I know you went through

0:27:05.119 --> 0:27:07.600
<v Speaker 1>a stroke. But the only thing I can compare you

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:10.720
<v Speaker 1>know my situation too is you know, when I got

0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>my boobs done, Mark Grossman was there for me. He

0:27:15.160 --> 0:27:17.280
<v Speaker 1>was there to support me. He was your can't he

0:27:17.400 --> 0:27:19.800
<v Speaker 1>was there to support me, like the best sports bra

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:23.159
<v Speaker 1>out there on the market now. He was great. And

0:27:23.240 --> 0:27:25.400
<v Speaker 1>even when I had my back surgery though for real,

0:27:25.480 --> 0:27:29.160
<v Speaker 1>I know I'm being facetious about the boob job, but no, um, yeah,

0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:30.760
<v Speaker 1>but he was he was there for you, right, It's

0:27:30.800 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>just like you need somebody that's gonna be yo. Like,

0:27:33.119 --> 0:27:34.879
<v Speaker 1>there's some people Carolina, I don't need to get to

0:27:34.960 --> 0:27:37.720
<v Speaker 1>graphic that need somebody to wipe their asks, like their spouse.

0:27:38.160 --> 0:27:41.119
<v Speaker 1>Like you're so sick. Let's say you have Let's very simple.

0:27:41.320 --> 0:27:43.399
<v Speaker 1>You have a c section right after you get burned.

0:27:43.880 --> 0:27:46.720
<v Speaker 1>Your spouse had. Your spouse has to be there. You're

0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:49.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna need a lot of caring and support. And if

0:27:49.760 --> 0:27:51.840
<v Speaker 1>you don't have the right spouse, imagine somebody talking about

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be back, call your mom, call your sister, Like

0:27:54.160 --> 0:27:58.480
<v Speaker 1>how devastating would that be? No, Mark mackam your lack cortext.

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:01.440
<v Speaker 1>He did me the favor because they had they give

0:28:01.480 --> 0:28:04.000
<v Speaker 1>you these granny panties that are just like not the

0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:07.879
<v Speaker 1>cutest and you're bleeding obviously because you just had a

0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:12.840
<v Speaker 1>major surgery, and you can't bend over and get them

0:28:12.920 --> 0:28:16.720
<v Speaker 1>from the shelf, or you can't exactly walk around the

0:28:16.760 --> 0:28:20.240
<v Speaker 1>house immediately, you're in pain. You have a brand new baby.

0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:22.960
<v Speaker 1>So I had to c sections, and I got to

0:28:23.000 --> 0:28:26.840
<v Speaker 1>be honest, he was really incredible with the way that

0:28:26.880 --> 0:28:28.800
<v Speaker 1>he supported me and that he was there for me.

0:28:28.960 --> 0:28:33.399
<v Speaker 1>So you know, hopefully that that is so important it

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 1>is like mandatory that you marry somebody you know, empathetic, loving,

0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:41.880
<v Speaker 1>caring and who understands, you know, being there for you.

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Because I have a friend Carolina, she went through COVID

0:28:44.720 --> 0:28:47.400
<v Speaker 1>and her significant other was just they put her in

0:28:47.400 --> 0:28:49.120
<v Speaker 1>a room and they were like, well, we'll leave you

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:52.600
<v Speaker 1>food outside. You know, I'll be back. Like she just

0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:56.280
<v Speaker 1>felt so devastated going through that, and he was just

0:28:56.360 --> 0:28:58.440
<v Speaker 1>not supportive at all, Like he he kept living his

0:28:58.480 --> 0:29:00.000
<v Speaker 1>life and she was just locked up in a room

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:03.280
<v Speaker 1>with COVID. So make sure you pick the right one. Yeah,

0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I definitely think that it's a real testament to who

0:29:05.720 --> 0:29:08.600
<v Speaker 1>you've married when you go through those times when you

0:29:08.680 --> 0:29:11.200
<v Speaker 1>need that support. Are you looking to outside sources or

0:29:11.240 --> 0:29:13.400
<v Speaker 1>other people for support or did you truly pick the

0:29:13.520 --> 0:29:16.720
<v Speaker 1>right partner? And we are fortunate to say that we

0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:19.440
<v Speaker 1>definitely did. I know I can say that wholeheartedly. But

0:29:19.520 --> 0:29:21.920
<v Speaker 1>like you know, my only hope for j Lo is

0:29:21.960 --> 0:29:24.480
<v Speaker 1>that Ben Affleck, if she needs to change her cotext,

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 1>do her favorite change that for her. Ben. I'm sure

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:30.960
<v Speaker 1>she has people, but she wants you to do it.

0:29:31.080 --> 0:29:33.160
<v Speaker 1>I think this is the one care leader. I really

0:29:33.200 --> 0:29:38.000
<v Speaker 1>feel like she finally found her person again twenty years later.

0:29:38.240 --> 0:29:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I hope so, I hope so too. I sure hope

0:29:40.720 --> 0:29:43.840
<v Speaker 1>so so. Yeah, listen, we will stay on this. We

0:29:43.880 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 1>will make sure that we give you guys all the

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:49.160
<v Speaker 1>late breaking news. But we had to stop down and

0:29:49.200 --> 0:29:53.520
<v Speaker 1>give you guys a special Life in Spanglish wedding edition

0:29:54.120 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 1>for the fourth time for j Lo. I know, I

0:29:58.040 --> 0:30:00.400
<v Speaker 1>know there have been others, but this one is the one.

0:30:00.600 --> 0:30:02.800
<v Speaker 1>We can feel it. We got a good feeling about it,

0:30:02.800 --> 0:30:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and we're sending her nothing but good positive vibes and hopefully,

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:08.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know. They didn't have to do

0:30:08.360 --> 0:30:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the money dance at their wedding. I didn't do the

0:30:10.160 --> 0:30:12.200
<v Speaker 1>money dance either, because I felt like I was about

0:30:12.240 --> 0:30:14.040
<v Speaker 1>to do it. But you know, we would throw down

0:30:14.080 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>a couple of bills for you guys if you were

0:30:15.640 --> 0:30:17.840
<v Speaker 1>doing the money dance j Lo and Ben. All I

0:30:17.840 --> 0:30:24.480
<v Speaker 1>gotta say is yeah, totally exactly. You know what this

0:30:24.520 --> 0:30:26.480
