Jennifer Lopez 'My family helps me with the kids'

Jennifer Lopez has a secret weapon to fitting all of her work around time with her kids.

The singer who raises twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony says it is only thanks to her family that she can afford to take time out from motherhood to concentrate on her businesses while still making sure her three-year-old tots are well looked after.

“I feel very fortunate because I have help,” she says.

“My family helps me with the kids, which is the most important thing. My mom is traveling with me right now. And I have learned over the years how to say no to certain things.

“I have a lot of different businesses going on, but I have great people who help to manage all of those businesses. I am kind of the creative force behind those things but it is only thanks to my family that I am able to fit it all in.”
