During a recent appearance on “Audacy” to promote her new film, The Mother, Jennifer Lopez got candid about the challenges her teenage twins, Max and Emme, face due to her fame. The 15-year-old siblings, whom Lopez shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony, are often judged and scrutinized by people they don’t know, which has left Lopez feeling guilty.

Lopez acknowledged the difficulty her children face in being constantly under the public eye, stating, “They know that there’s a lens on them, and that’s hard. It’s hard for them, I think. I did that to them.” She expressed empathy for her children, recognizing that being the offspring of famous parents is something few can understand.

The JLo Beauty founder lamented how her children are often perceived based on their parents’ fame rather than being seen for who they truly are. Despite her efforts to shield them from judgment, Lopez admitted that her children have become aware of how people treat them differently because of their famous parents.

While Lopez strives to protect her children, she frequently expresses her love and pride for them. On their 15th birthday, she shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, praising them for bringing joy and happiness to her heart and soul.

Max and Emme’s profiles have become even more prominent since Lopez’s marriage to Ben Affleck in 2022. As part of a blended family with Affleck’s children from his previous marriage, Max and Emme have formed close bonds with their stepsiblings, particularly Ben’s daughter Seraphina. According to sources, Emme and Seraphina share a strong friendship, bonding over their love for music and quirky fashion styles, much to the delight of their parents.
