Jennifer Lopez Says She Raised Twins With "Very Little Help" and Praises Their College Plans

Her remark has drawn attention as she processes the end of her children’s time at home and media note reports that their father did not attend recent graduations.

Overview

  • Lopez said on the June 15 SmartLess podcast that she raised her 18-year-old twins, Emme and Max, with "very little help" and called the experience emotional as they prepare for college.
  • She added that both children were accepted to the colleges they wanted and received scholarships, and that she feels proud of what she created for her family and career.
  • Multiple outlets linked Lopez’s comments to reports that Marc Anthony was not seen at Emme’s and Max’s recent high school graduations, though those reports do not include a public comment from Anthony.
  • Lopez has previously described her divorce from Anthony as "really tough" and has said she leaned on mentor Louise Hay during periods of single parenting, context she referenced in recent interviews.
  • The coverage frames Lopez’s reflections as part of a public coparenting narrative and an emotional empty-nest moment, and further public statements from either parent could shift how the story is discussed next.
