Jennifer Lopez’s mother, Guadalupe “Lupe” Rodríguez, once publicly dismissed the idea of her daughter getting back together with Sean “Diddy” Combs, whom the pop star dated from 1999 to 2001.
A video of the condemnation has resurfaced in light of the Combs’ recent arrest for racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution — to which he pleaded not guilty.
During a 2015 appearance on “The Wendy Williams Show,” the program’s titular host said to Lopez, her guest, “I was telling you that I could always see you getting back with Puffy in a little way.” (Combs was known as Puff Daddy, Puffy and P. Diddy before he settled on Diddy.)

Lopez managed to let Williams down easy by making a joke about how the crowd got loud during the conversation.
“First of all, it’s crazy that everybody came alive! They all had something to say,” the actress noted, prompting Williams to point out, “Everybody has an opinion.”
“Yes!” Lopez responded in agreement. “It’s funny to me.”

“Her mother was yelling at J.Lo in Spanish, and she was really mad at Jennifer,” Parker, who is now a private investigator, recalled.
“I heard her say, ‘I told you not to get involved with [him].’”
Lopez was released from custody without being charged after spending 14 hours “bawling” in a holding cell.
