Jennifer Lopez Talks Being Empty Nester After Kids Max, Emme Go to College

Jennifer Lopez Says She Had “Very Little Help” Raising Her and Marc Anthony’s TwinsJennifer Lopez’s block is looking a lot emptier these days.
The “Jenny From the Block” singer got candid about home life after sending off her and ex-husband Marc Anthony’s 18-year-old twins Max and Emme to their freshman year of college, stressing the importance of making time for routines such as working out and practicing self-care.
“When they go away,” Lopez shared in a Sept. 25 video posted to her skincare brand JLO Beauty’s Instagram account, “and I’m sitting here being an empty nester—crying, thinking about them, looking at baby pictures of them and all that stuff—these routines are the things that are going to keep me kind of sane.”
The 57-year-old continued, “It’s a scary time. It’s a transitional time. It’s a new beginning in a lot of ways for them, certainly, but also for you.”
That’s why J.Lo is encouraging other parents in a similar situation to “keep your routines going.”
