Marc Anthony skipped Emme’s graduation as Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s son attended
Marc Anthony appeared to be a no-show at his daughter Emme’s high school graduation on Thursday.
Despite the singer seemingly skipping, Emme’s mother, Jennifer Lopez, showed support, along with grandmother Guadalupe Rodríguez and former child Samuel.
Emme, 18, and Ben Affleck’s 14-year-old son were photographed chatting in photos obtained by Page Six on Friday.
Emme’s twin brother, Max, was present at the event.
The guest of honor was all smiles at the Los Angeles event in a red suit, while Max rocked an all-black ensemble.
Representatives for Anthony and Lopez did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment about his absence.
Along with the twins, Anthony has five other children, he recently welcomed son Marco, 2, with wife Nadia Ferreira.
The couple announced in January that they are expecting baby number 2.
Anthony also shares daughter Arianna, 32, and son Chase, 35, with ex Debbie Rosado Rosado, as well as sons Cristian, 25, and Ryan, 22, with Dayanara Torres.
Emme and Max, on the other hand, are Lopez’s only two children. The teenager was born in 2008, three years before his parents gave up.
Lopez went on to marry Affleck in 2022 — and since their split in 2024, the exes have kept in touch with each other’s children.
The actor of “Argo”, in particular, shares Samuel, Violet, 20, and Seraphina, 17, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
Most recently, Lopez was spotted shopping with Sam in September 2025.
The “Air” actor, on the other hand, brought Emme and Max to the premiere of his thriller “The Accountant” last year.
At the time, Affleck gushed to Entertainment Tonight, “The kids are here, Jen’s kids are here. I’m so happy. I love it when all the kids come out.”
He called Lopez “gorgeous” on the April 2025 red carpet – and praised her for being “good” to her children.
The Oscar winner spoke about the twins at the time, calling them “amazing.”
The night before Emme’s graduation, Lopez was heard talking about next steps during “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” interview.
The “Office Romance” star admitted that “we’ve been crying for two months.”
However, the producer’s main goal is to see the twins “happily go where they want to go and do what they want to do.”
He joked, “They’ll see that their dorms are too small and they’ll miss home. I hope they’ll want to come back soon. That’s my plan.”
Lopez explained that even though people are asking if the kids will go “bad,” he thinks it will be “good” because they have “big dreams.”
