Jennifer Lopez Says She Raised Twins 'With Very Little Help'

Lopez's June 15 comment that she raised her twins 'with very little help' frames her emotional adjustment to an empty nest, focusing public attention on co‑parenting after her split from Marc Anthony.

Overview

  • Lopez told hosts of the SmartLess podcast on June 15 that she raised her 18‑year‑old twins “with very little help” while reflecting on her life as they prepare for college.
  • She said both Emme and Max were accepted to the colleges they wanted and received scholarships, and that they will attend the schools they chose.
  • Entertainment outlets report that Marc Anthony was not seen at either twin’s recent high school graduation, and he has not publicly responded to those attendance reports.
  • Reporting notes Anthony is now married to Nadia Ferreira and has expanded his family since his split from Lopez, which has shaped public interest in current co‑parenting dynamics.
  • Lopez and Anthony were married from 2004 to 2014 and reportedly agreed to joint custody after their divorce, and Lopez has described the divorce as a difficult period that she worked through with mentorship and self‑reliance.
