On Wednesday, popstar Jennifer Lopez revealed that her wedding to fiance former MLB player Alex Rodriguez has been affected by the coronavirus, twice.

Lopez told Access Hollywood that her wedding to Rodriguez has been pushed back twice due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The 51-year-old star added: "I think we just feel like, "Let’s just wait it out" There is no rush. We’re good. Everything is cool. It will happen when the time is right,"

In April, Rodriguez joked on the “Tonight Show", about having a drive-thru wedding because of the pandemic.

“Some people said, "Maybe we have a drive-thru wedding?" It’ll be cheaper,” he stated.

A month later, Lopez admitted she was a little heartbroken about postponing their nuptials.

"Maybe it’s going to be better. I have to believe that it will be,” she added on the “Today” show.
