Jennifer Lopez: Relationships Take Work, Motherhood Changes Everything

Jennifer Lopez, who turned 40 in July, covers the massive, 15th-Anniversary September issue of InStyle. Inside she talks about motherhood, love and getting older.

On life with twins, Max and Emme, age 18 months:

"There's nothing as huge as giving birth to another human being and having to be responsible for another life. There's you before kids, and there's you after kids - and they're not the same you."

On taking a break from the spotlight:

"I'm at a point in my life when I just don't feel the need to put out anything unless I totally, absolutely feel it says what I want to say."


On her five-year marriage to Marc Anthony:

"I believe that in life you learn through experience. I'm old enough to know now that relationships take work. That's it's not an easy thing."
