For Lopez, having a child was an unmatched experience of love and delight. She frequently talks about the intense emotional bond she experienced when she first saw her twins, characterizing it as unconditional love.

Lopez and Anthony celebrated their twins' birth on February 22, 2008. After the delivery, Lopez's manager, Simon Fields, told PEOPLE that Jennifer and Marc were happy and excited about their new children.


Max and Emme have been surrounded by affection their entire lives. They have three older half-brothers and one elder half-sister from their father. After Lopez and Affleck married in July 2022, the twins got three new step-siblings: Samuel, Seraphina, and Violet.

Lopez had told Vogue about their deliberate family merging process before their nuptials. She said she hoped the union would create a nurturing atmosphere where her kids would find a new ally in Ben Affleck and his kids would find a supportive role model in her.
