Jennifer Lopez has revealed how her priorities have shifted now that she's a mum.
The singer-actress said turning 40 and giving birth to twins Max and Emme made her rethink her career and ambitions.
"You start out young and confident, thinking you want to be an actress and singer - then you actually do it and it's great for a while, but then you have all this success and other things start becoming important," she told OK! magazine.
"You have to know what is most important to you. And I think you have to realise that as much as you put into work, you have to put into your relationship and your children - but more so. For me, my family is the most important thing and everything else comes after that."
Jennifer, whose husband is singer Marc Anthony, chose to withdraw from the spotlight because of the children.
"I do have more of a personal life now. That part of my life has changed from the past. I just didn't want to be that person any more," she said.
