Jennifer Lopez Wiped Away Tears Watching Her Son Max Graduate High School at UCLA. Marc Anthony Didn’t Show.

By

Max Muniz, one of Jennifer Lopez’s 18-year-old twins with Marc Anthony, graduated high school on Friday on the UCLA campus. Paparazzi caught his mom dabbing at tears between hugs and proud-mom poses.

Lopez was flanked by her parents Guadalupe and David Lopez, her longtime manager Benny Medina, and Max’s twin Emme (who now also goes by Oskar Jacob and graduated the week before). Marc Anthony skipped both ceremonies.

Two graduations in roughly 10 days made the empty-nest wave hit fast. She’s been open about it, telling Gayle King recently that she’s been “crying for two months” and asking herself, “Did I do enough?”

She also appeared to shop her own closet for the occasion, re-wearing a House of CB corset dress she first wore in 2023.
