You wouldn't have thought J-Lo's mum would have to resort to gambling what with her daughter's wealth.

However it seems that Guadalupe Lopez, mother of Jennifer, has been at the fruit machines in Atlantic City and got lucky with a little help from above. According to widespread reports today she raked in over two million US Dollars on the one-armed bandits at the Borgata casino.

Not that this news will please J-Lo, who is reported to hate gambling and who, according to The Sun, blames it for the split between her and Ben. The paper goes on to claim:

"She tried to stop the film hunk but was thwarted as her mum happily joined him at tournaments."

Meanwhile her Mum was quick to pass the buck and claim it was divine intervention that helped her win:

"I have a great devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe and said a little prayer. Our Lady really looks out for me."
