Jennifer Lopez Prepares to Become an Empty-Nester as Twins Head to College

Months of tears plus plans to help move her children into their dorms highlight a hands-on, emotional transition for the pop star.

Overview

  • Lopez said on Jimmy Kimmel Live that her 18-year-old twins, Max and Emme, will attend different colleges and are preparing to move out of the family home.
  • She told the show she has been “crying for two months” and expects to be emotional again at their upcoming graduation, showing how strongly she is feeling the change.
  • Lopez said she intends to personally help move each child into their dorm rooms despite the likely publicity that could follow her on campus.
  • The twins turned 18 in February, a milestone Lopez publicly marked with an Instagram tribute that framed the move to college as the next step in their independence.
  • This hands-on approach by a high-profile parent highlights the tension between family privacy and public attention during major life transitions and could shape how campuses handle celebrity move-ins this fall.
