Leah Remini is embracing her new chapter with the unwavering support of her close friend.
The beloved star of King of Queens recently shared insights about her strong friendship with Jennifer Lopez, revealing that they continue to maintain a positive relationship. After Leah’s emotional 2024 divorce from her husband Angelo Pagán, following an impressive 21 years of marriage, the two have been exchanging heartfelt messages filled with encouragement and love.
“Immediately following the divorce,” Leah disclosed during her interview with Us Weekly published on June 4, “we would send each other affectionate texts offering support during this challenging time.”
While the Saved by the Bell actress, who finalized her divorce from Angelo in October of the previous year, may not communicate with Jennifer on a daily basis, she assured fans that this does not diminish their bond. “There are moments when you may not speak to someone every day as you once did, but that in no way implies that the love has faded,” Leah explained. “Friendships are dynamic and naturally evolve over time, and that does not equate to any discord between us.”
Indeed, Leah and Jennifer—who also finalized her own divorce from ex Ben Affleck in January after a brief two-year marriage—have navigated different paths in their respective journeys, which reflects the complexity of long-term friendships.
