Leah Remini Spills the Tea (and Maybe a Margarita) on Her JLo Friendship Drama – Or Lack Thereof!

Buy Me A Coffee

Light a candle for Saint Jennifer of the Bronx, because Leah Remini just clapped back at those juicy rumors that she and Jennifer Lopez had a friend breakup so dramatic, even Real Housewives producers were taking notes.

So here’s the situation: Leah, Queen of Sass and High Ponytails, has finally addressed the whispers that she and her glam bestie JLo may have had a glittery falling-out. You know, the kind where one friend unfollows the other on Instagram and suddenly all of TikTok is in full-blown FBI mode.

Let’s rewind to the golden age of 2004: Paris Hilton was roaming the streets in low-rise jeans, and Leah met Jenny From The Block on a red carpet, probably bonding over lip gloss and anti-Scientology chants. The friendship blossomed like a well-watered ficus at a Beverly Hills spa. Leah was so in the inner circle she became godmother to JLo’s twins with Marc Anthony — Max and Emme — who are now somehow 17 years old (time is a scam, we’ve decided).

BUT THEN! (insert ominous thunder sound effect)
In August 2022, Leah was mysteriously MIA from Bennifer’s wedding extravaganza — a lavish affair full of doves, diamonds, and probably a hologram of Gigli apologizing for existing. The gossip mill erupted. Did Leah throw shade? Did she RSVP ‘no’ with a middle finger emoji? Did she just hate Ben’s back tattoo that much?!

Plot twist: she was just helping her daughter move into college. (Because she’s a mom and not a petty drama gremlin like the rest of us. Boring.)

Then came the eyebrow-raising twist: Leah did show up at Marc Anthony’s wedding to model Nadia Ferreira, sparking wild speculation that she was choosing Team Salsa over Team Benifer. Cue the “Leah’s a traitor!” fan fiction.

But now, Leah is setting the record straight with Us Weekly and basically said, “Calm down, peasants. We’re fine.” Here’s the quote that could be crocheted on a pillow in a therapist’s office:

“Sometimes you don’t talk to people every day like you used to, but that doesn’t mean the love is lost. Friendships ebb and flow. That doesn’t mean we’re at odds.”

Translation: “We’re grown women with divorces, careers, and possibly a few Botox appointments between us. Chill.”

No catfight, no unfollowing, no sabotage. Just two powerhouse Latinas navigating life with sparkly nails, emotional resilience, and more ex-husbands than a ‘90s soap opera. ✨

Long live Leah & JLo. BFFs forever — just maybe with a few calendar conflicts and less frequent FaceTimes.
