Lopez recently opened up about her bittersweet feelings about becoming an empty nester. During a May 27 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Office Romance actress—who’s also mom to Max, 18—fought back tears as she shared, “All year people asked me, ‘They’re going away to college. It’s going to be terrible.’ No, it’s going to be great. I want them to go out there. I want them to do what they want to do. They have big dreams. They have things they want to do. It’s going to be great.”
Per photos shared by Page Six on May 29, Lopez was spotted attending Emme’s high school graduation ceremony on Thursday. The Kiss of the Spider Woman actress could be seen wearing wide-legged cream slacks, a white dress shirt, and a white pinstripe blazer as she supported the high school senior with her mom Guadalupe Rodriguez and Emme’s former stepbrother Samuel Affleck. Per the publication, Anthony did not attend the ceremony.
