Salsa star, Marc Anthony, has split from Venezuelan model, Shannon De Lima, his wife of two years.
This news comes the day after the 48-year-old ‘I Need You’ singer planted a kiss on his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez, 47, while on stage at the Latin Grammys in Las Vegas where they performed a duet.

During his acceptance speech, Anthony, who received the Person of the Year award from Lopez compared the moment to “kissing a sister.”
Lopez’s manager, Benny Medina, told TMZ the entertainers, who share twins, are “absolutely, categorically, 100% not back together.”
The ‘Jenny from the Block’ singer offered heartfelt remarks during the tribute to Anthony Thursday night. “Marc, you are a living legend who has laid bare your heart and soul on your musical journey,” she said in Spanish. “We’ve learned so much and we’ve grown so much, and you’ve always been so many things in my life: my mentor, a twin soul, a father who’s not only the person of the year, he’s the person of all time.”
Anthony dedicated the honour to his five children and “all those people who told me I would never make it.” He did not mention De Lima.
Anthony and De Lima were first romantically linked in January 2012, seven months after Anthony and Lopez announced their plans to dissolve their seven-year marriage in a joint statement.
Following a brief split in January 2013, Anthony and De Lima reconciled, eventually marrying in a private ceremony in the Dominican Republic in November 2014. They do not have any children together.
