Jennifer Lopez talked about balancing motherhood with her personal struggles.
In a recent chat with her new movie Unstoppable co-star Judy Robles, the pair discussed the role of mother as the pair portrayed the characters of mother and son in the film based on the life story of wrestler Anthony Robles.
In the British Vogue interview, Lopez opened up about being a mother and being always available for her kids keeping her struggles aside.
“Okay, there’s so much going on here. And I understood it. I mean, as a mom, you always want to put your best foot forward for your kids,” Lopez admitted.
“You want to lift them up. That doesn’t stop you from being a human being who struggles,” she added.
It is pertinent to mention that Lopez is mom to twins Max and Emme, 16, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
Lopez previously spoke about her role in Unstoppable in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, which was influenced by her experience as a single parent to her twins
“I’ve been a single mom at times in my life, and [I’ve asked], ‘Am I enough for them?’ ” Lopez noted. “And the truth is, all you need is really one good parent to love you.”
“You hear it in Anthony’s voice, and look what he’s been able to accomplish,” Lopez said of the wrestler. “That’s what the movie gave me: You are enough.”
