Jennifer Lopez Marks Twins' 18th Birthday with Emotional Tribute: 'It's Always Been the Three of Us'

Jennifer Lopez has shared a deeply personal video montage on Instagram to celebrate the 18th birthday of her twins, Emme Maribel Muñiz and Maximilian David Muñiz, born on 22 February 2026. The montage featured tender moments from their lives, from newborn cuddles to recent family outings, paired with a sweeping caption reflecting on the night they were born during a snowstorm in New York.

In the caption, Lopez recalled: 'You were born in the middle of the night, in the midst of the biggest, most beautiful snowstorm NY had seen in years!! It was as if God was making sure you would enter a world full of pure magic!!' She described holding her newborns as 'holding two angels sent straight from heaven above' and said her life was 'changed forever.'

The singer and actress expressed disbelief that her children are now adults, writing: 'I cannot believe you are now adults…18 years old! You are both so kind-hearted, generous, and loving.' She emphasised the close bond they share, calling them her 'coconuts' and noting it has 'always been the three of us.' She ended with personal notes: 'Always remember, Lulu, you are my sunshine…and Max, you're amazing just the way you are!!'

Lopez has previously spoken about this transitional period. In October 2025, she revealed on Live with Kelly and Mark that they had begun touring colleges, saying: 'They're 17! Can you believe that? We're visiting colleges today…It's happening - they're leaving, they're going, and it's crazy.' She added that her goal has been to 'always make a home that they want to come back to.'

The twins were born during Lopez's marriage to singer Marc Anthony. Anthony is currently expecting his eighth child with wife Nadia Ferreira, with whom he already has a two-year-old son, Marco. The couple announced the pregnancy on their third wedding anniversary last month.
