Jennifer Lopez Reveals Twins Emme and Max Struggle With Feeling ‘Judged’ for Having Famous Parents: ‘They Didn’t Choose That’

Mama bear. Jennifer Lopez opened up about wanting to “protect’ her 15-year-old twins — who have struggled with the realities of having famous parents.   “I think being the child of famous parents is really not something many people can understand and I feel for [my kids] for that because they didn’t choose that,” Lopez, 53, said during a recent roundtable talk with Audacy. “I haven’t talked to them a lot about this, but they have just started letting me know how people treat them.

So when they walk into the room, that’s what people are thinking about, they’re not seeing them for who they are. And I think that has to be a really hard thing for them.

I’d love to protect them from that.”   The “Let’s Get Loud” singer explained that while “bullying” can be hard no matter “who you are,” it’s difficult for her two kids, Emme and Max — whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony — to “grow up and be themselves” when they feel “judged by people” they “don’t know.”   “They know there is a lens on them,” she continued, noting that while their particular struggle might not be “relatable,” it remains a challenge for her teenagers — and is something the Marry Me star carries with her.
