As the twin kid of erstwhile powerhouse couple Jennifer Lopez (J.Lo) and Marc Anthony Muñiz, Maximilian David Muñiz has been in the spotlight.
Without a doubt, both of Maximilian's parents are legendary vocalists with a long-running career spanning more than a decade. They've also won dozens of new notable awards, with Marc taking home three Grammys and six Latin Grammys.
Does Jennifer Lopez have twins? Yes, she delivered twins, a girl, and a boy, on February 22, 2008, via C-section at North Shore University Hospital.
Emme Maribel Muñiz is Maximilian's twin sister. Emme is a minute older than Maximilian, having been born at 12:21 on February 22. A minute later, at 12:22, Maximilian was born.
Jennifer also admitted that she was terrified that her children would be kidnapped, so she paid £300,000 to hire a security team to protect them.
The media grew even more keen to obtain glimpses of the babies after hearing the news of their birth. People magazine sought $6 million for the exclusive US rights to the first images of the babies, making it the most expensive celebrity photograph ever taken at the time. The twins were first revealed to the public on March 11, 2008, in People Magazine.
The twins received a number of high-end gifts, including 'Baby K'tan' cushions and baby carriers with their names stitched on them.
Their twin's middle name which is David for Maximillian, and Maribel for Emme is JLo and Marc's way of honoring their loved ones. Jennifer's father's name was "David." Marc's sister's name was "Maribel," and she had died of a brain tumor at such a young age. JLo affectionately calls her twins "coconuts."
Emme Maribel Muñiz And Maximilian David Muñiz have half-siblings on their father's side. Their oldest half-sister is Arianna Muniz, born in 1994, to Marc and his ex-girlfriend, Debbie Rosado. Their oldest half-brother is Alex Chase Muniz, adopted son of Marc and his ex, Debbie Rosado. Cristian, born in 2001, and Ryan, born in 2003, sons of Marc and his former wife, Dayanara Torres, are their other older half-brothers.

Maximilian David Muñiz is a techy 13 year old, according to JLo herself. She stated in an interview that he likes coding and creating new things, “Max is an intellectual, yes an intellectual. He’s a techie. You know he is all about the electronics. I mean a lot of kids these days they just, they’re just so about that. He wants to code. He wants to create things. You know he wants to kind of direct movies online and stuff like that.”
Maximilian David is also a great singer and performer like his parents! Jennifer Lopez posted a video montage of him singing in the background for their 11th birthday.
She released another video of Maximilian David performing Vance Joy's "Riptide" with his sister, Emme, playing the Ukelele, in September 2019.
JLo uploaded another video of her son performing in a school play of 'The Wizard of Oz' on February 29, 2020, where he performed solo as Munchkinland's coroner.
