Max and Emme<\/a>, who are now 18 years old and getting ready to graduate high school.<\/p>\n\u201cDon\u2019t talk about it because [I] start crying,\u201d Lopez told host Jimmy Kimmel, adding that she will absolutely be crying at the kids\u2019 upcoming graduation ceremony. She admitted she has \u201cbeen crying for two months\u201d in anticipation.<\/p>\n
(J.Lo shares her teenage children with ex-husband Marc Anthony, whom she was married to from 2004 to 2014.)<\/p>\n
Elsewhere during the interview, Lopez said that it was when she started writing her kids\u2019 notes for their high school yearbook that the fact really hit her: She\u2019s going to be an empty nester soon. \u201cWhen I tell you, the tears\u2014it took me two days to write those things,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The \u201cAll I Have\u201d singer revealed that Max and Emme will be going to different colleges, but she did not disclose which schools, or what they will be studying. She noted simply that she wants them to \u201cbe happy and go where they want to go and do what they want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re going to pack up their rooms here and they\u2019re going to take all the things that they want to take to their dorm. Then they\u2019re going to realize that their dorms are too small and they\u2019re going to miss home,\u201d J.Lo hilariously added. \u201cI hope they\u2019ll want to come back real soon. That\u2019s my plan.\u201d<\/p>\n
While the singer-actor is sad to see her kids move out, she\u2019s excited for what their futures hold.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll year people were asking me, \u2018They\u2019re going away to college, is it going to be terrible?\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018No. It\u2019s going to be great,’\u201d she said. \u201cThey have big dreams it\u2019s going to be great.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
