The singer’s husband reportedly found Jen's dress sense 'too sexy and unbecoming for a 40-year-old mother of two'

Just days after news of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s split emerged, speculation over the reason for their break-up is steadily mounting.

Although the pair have remained decidedly quiet on why they parted ways, new reports suggest the break-up could have been fuelled by Marc’s controlling behavior, and attempt to stifle Jen’s sexy style.

JENNIFER LOPEZ: STYLE HISTORY

According to American US magazine, J-Lo’s traditional hubby was less than impressed with her wardrobe choices, and ‘hated’ her being seen as a sex symbol.

'He would make her feel terrible about herself if she wanted to wear something sexy,' an insider told the title.

'He likes her to dress in a demure, "wife'" style. He hated the fact that she was a sex symbol.'

It’s thought the singer also tried take control of her style choices during a photo shoot last year, declaring some Jen’s daring looks 'too sexy and unbecoming for a 40-year-old mother of two.’

Another source revealed: 'Marc has always been a very dominating husband. He wants to control everything Jennifer does.'

The couple announced their break-up in a joint statement on Friday, revealing they had ‘come to an amicable conclusion on all matters.’

Confirming the split in a short message on their website, the pair wrote: 'We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision.
