"Right after the divorce, we'd text each other loving messages of support," Remini shared. "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."

Remini filed for divorce from her husband of 21 years, Angelo Pagán, in August 2024, and the couple finalized their divorce in October 2024. Speaking about her decision to end the marriage, Remini said, "You become friends, but there's more to marriage than that. I saw that Angelo wanted something different."

Lopez's Divorce from Ben Affleck
