Jennifer Lopez cried at her son Max’s high school graduation on Friday.

The singer — wearing a floral dress, gray cardigan and nude heels — could be seen wiping away her tears in photos obtained by Page Six.

In another image, Lopez embraced the 18-year-old, who sported a tie-dye shirt, tan pants and matching orange kicks on his special day.

The artist was joined by her parents, Guadalupe Rodríguez and David Lopez, manager Benny Medina and Max’s twin, who reportedly goes by Oskar.

Lopez and Oskar were photographed walking together, with the recent grad sporting a red polo, blue slacks and red cowboy boots.

The “Office Romance” star had her twins with Marc Anthony, to whom she was married for 10 years before their 2014 divorce. He wasn’t seen at the ceremony.

The musician also skipped out on Oskar’s graduation late last month.

Lopez attended Oskar’s ceremony with Rodríguez, Max and Samuel Affleck, son of J.Lo’s ex-husband Ben Affleck.

Oskar and 14-year-old Sam were seen chatting in a series of pictures obtained by Page Six.

Lopez tied the knot with Ben Affleck in 2022, and the pair has kept in close contact with each other’s children since their 2024 split.

The “Argo” star has three kids with ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Samuel, Violet, 20, and Fin, 17.

After Oskar’s graduation, it was revealed that Lopez’s gender-fluid child, born Emme, was going by Oskar.

A March Instagram post announcing where seniors were going to college identified a student as “Oskar Muñiz” alongside a childhood photo. The post also tagged Oskar’s Instagram account, which has a profile picture of Lopez’s child.

With both of her kids graduating, Lopez said she had been “crying for two months” while on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” the evening before Oskar’s graduation.

The actress added that her main goal is to now see the twins “be happy and go where they want to go and do what they want to do.”

Before the kids jet off to their next chapter, Lopez revealed how she avoided spoiling her children.

“I mean, they do what they see you do,” she said while on Monday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live.”

“So, it’s not so much what you tell them all the time. Even though I’m trying to download everything I’ve ever learned in my life, every lesson … to them right now … before they leave [for college] in August,” she said.

For Lopez, what sticks is “who you are as a person” and what your children see you do.

The “Kiss of the Spider Woman” star confessed that her kids don’t “want to be anything like” her and want their “own path.”

“They see this persona as such a thing,” Lopez explained to host Andy Cohen. “But I also see them … not mimic, but … pick up things that are the good things or the good traits about you.”
