“We just support each other,” Lopez, 49, told Us Weekly and other reporters at a screening of the World of Dance season 3 premiere in Los Angeles on Wednesday, February 13. “It’s just how we do it.”

The “If You Had My Love” singer has served as a judge on the NBC dance competition series since it premiered in May 2017. She payed special tribute to her longtime love on the upcoming first episode of the latest season by wearing a “13” necklace — Rodriguez’s old New York Yankees uniform number — around her neck.
