The singer’s and her promoter’s announcement also follows rumors that sales for the multi-date event were not meeting expectations.
In her newsletter, “On the JLo” which she sent to fans on Friday, she revealed the tour was off.
“About disappointing you, I am utterly heartbroken and devastated. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” Lopez wrote.
“I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time…”
The email also included a message from tour promoter Live Nation noting that “Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.”
The cancellation comes after a number of adjustments and curtailments were made to the tour, including slicing dates off and rebranding it as a greatest hits tour, rather than one focused on her latest album.
But it also comes with Lopez and Affleck’s apparent troubles dominating the tabloid and entertainment press.
Reports suggest the pair who married in 2022, almost two decades after their first relationship fell apart have been living separately in Los Angeles.
People Magazine said relations between the “Good Will Hunting” star, 51, and the “On The Floor” singer, 54, were strained because of their different approaches to celebrity.
An anonymous source told the magazine, “She likes to open her heart to her fans and to the world.”
“He is more introspective and private. This has been difficult day-to-day.”
The pair first met on the set of the widely panned movie “Gigli,” released 2003.
They became a media sensation as they dated but postponed their planned 2003 nuptials, then announced their relationship was over in early 2004.
When images of the couple together started to surface again in 2021, fans took to the internet, calling each other “Bennifer,” the moniker from their first, widely reported relationship.
The following July, they had a small ceremony in Nevada, and in August, they had a star-studded ceremony at Affleck’s opulent 87-acre (35-hectare) waterfront compound in Georgia, in the southeastern US state.
The couple reportedly bought a $60 million home together in Los Angeles last year.
