Jennifer Lopez Reveals Being Mother Is 'Wild' In Rare Personal Message On Instagram
Last Updated:
Jennifer Lopez, 55, shares twins Emme and Max, both 16, with her former husband Marc Anthony.
Jennifer Lopez sees being a parent as 'wild". The singer, 55, who shares twins Emme and Max, both 16, with her former husband Marc Anthony, made the admission while opening up about the emotional strength required for motherhood in a rare personal message posted to her Instagram Stories to mark Mother's Day in the US on Sunday.
Jennifer, also known for acting in movies including 'Unstoppable' and 'Office Romance', said in a message: 'Being a mom is so wild because you really just wake up every day and do it. You do it regardless of how you feel. I'm proud of us."
She also shared a series of snaps and video clips over the weekend. In one short clip, she was seen twirling in a flowing skirt on a white-sand beach near her home in the Hamptons, Long Island.
The Grammy-winning artist recently wrapped filming on her latest romantic comedy 'Office Romance', in which she stars alongside 43-year-old Brett Goldstein, best known for his role in 'Ted Lasso'. Her shoot concluded shortly before Jennifer and her former partner Ben Affleck, 51, reportedly made a significant reduction to the asking price of their mansion in Bel Air, California.
According to a report by TMZ, the couple dropped the price of the 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom estate from $68 million to $60 million, after originally purchasing the property in May 2023 for $60,850,000. The property was first listed for sale in July 2024.
Sources told TMZ Ben had been pushing for the price cut, reportedly urging Jennifer to agree so the house would sell. 'Ben wants to get rid of it because their divorce is over and he wants to cut all ties and have it be done," an insider said. 'He just wants it over and to sell it. He wants to reduce the price."
Another source told TMZ: 'Jennifer thinks they can get more money for the home, so she wants to keep the price as is. But the real estate market is not there and it's not selling."
Experts cited by the site said the estate was overpriced, suggesting it would need to be reduced by at least 15 percent to attract buyers. Insurance costs have also proven a deterrent, with annual fire insurance for the hillside property estimated at $500,000. Wildfires in Southern California earlier this year further intensified concerns.
In August 2024, one month after the listing, Jennifer and Ben reportedly accepted a $64 million offer from a New Jersey couple, only for the deal to fall through due to a family bereavement. In October, Selling Sunset star Jason Oppenheim told Realtor.com: 'It would have been surprising for the house to sell in less than 100 days."
