She’s made no secret of her desire to have children, but don’t expect Jennifer Lopez to have more than a couple.
Answering some gentle probing by US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres on Friday, La Lopez said she “absolutely” wants children of her own, in addition to the three step-children she looks after with husband Marc Anthony.
Marc, 38, has two sons Cristian, five, and Ryan, three, with his ex-wife Dayanara Torres, and a 12-year-old daughter, Arianna, from a previous relationship.
Asked by Ellen: “But you want to have more kids. Lots of kids?”, Lopez replied: “I don’t know about a lot.”
“Like, five, four?” Ellen speculated, while Jennifer replied: “One or two. I’ll take two at once, that would be great.”
After Ellen pointed out how much work twins would be, J-Lo, who we’re pretty sure could afford a bit of hired help with nappy-changing, seemed keener on the idea of only being pregnant once.
“Okay, but then you’re done, and you got two,” she exclaimed.
“Well, [with] quadruplets you’d be done with four,” Ellen quipped, before a resolute Jen fired back: “Too many!”
Still, Jen doesn’t appear to be in a rush to get pregnant, telling People en Espanol in a recent interview: “When you are as blessed as I am, you don’t like to push it.”
