J Lo Says Marriage is No Secret (A P) — Jennifer Lopez has co n firm ed that she and M arc A nthony are, indeed, husband and wife. “Yes, w e’re m arried," Lopez tells People m agazine. “I mean, com e on, everyone know s. It’s not a secret.” It was the first public acknow l edgm ent o f her union with the salsa singer - an unusually long delay considering the cerem ony w as last June at her Beverly Hills, Calif., home. The couple perform ed a duet, though, at the Feb. 13 G ram m y A w ards show. Lopez says she w as ailing from sw ollen glands and a sore throat during the per form ance, which caused her to cancel a London trip to prom ote the British release o f her film “Shall W e D ance?” T hough the trip cancellation prom pted som e speculation of pregnancy, Lopez says she’s “not on a tim etable” to have a baby - though she hopes to becom e a m other som eday. N ow , the 34-year-old says, she’s entered “phase tw o” : a less public, a “ little bit suburban” life w ith A nthony - and a far cry from her “ Bennifer” days with form er fiance Ben A ffleck. But Lopez counts the high-profile rom ance as a learning ex peri ence. “ I take responsibility for the fact that I d id n 't make adjust m ents,” she says. “Now I’m a little m ore careful. I travel in a certain way. I leave at a certain time. I learned.” L opez’s new album, “Rebirth,” was released Tuesday. U I
