The renowned musician, known for his hit song "Vivir Mi Vida," also has a beautiful family. He has a daughter named Arianna, aged 28, and a son named Chase, aged 28, from his previous relationship with Debbie Rosado. Additionally, he has two sons named Cristian, aged 22, and Ryan, aged 19, from his previous marriage to Dayanara Torres. Furthermore, he has twins named Emme and Max, aged 16, from his previous marriage to Jennifer Lopez.

Anthony and Lopez ended their marriage in 2011 after being together for seven years. Their divorce was finalized in 2014. In a March 2017 interview on The View, Lopez shared an update on their co-parenting relationship, stating that they are currently in a good place. Despite the reasons for their separation, they have managed to maintain a strong friendship and successfully co-parent their children together.

Lopez has also found love again following her split from Anthony. After ending her engagement with Alex Rodriguez in 2021, she rekindled her romance with Ben Affleck. The couple tied the knot in July 2022.

To celebrate Father's Day on June 18, Lopez shared a steamy tribute to Affleck, who is 50 years old and known for his role in "Argo." Captioning an Instagram post with a photo of Affleck posing shirtless, she wrote, "Daddy Appreciation Post. Happy Father's Day Papa. And Happy Father's Day to all the amazing Papas out there! We love you and appreciate you more than you will ever know."

"Thank you for your unwavering support and for bringing immense joy into my life," expressed Anthony gratefully as he accepted the prestigious Latin Grammy award for Best Salsa Album in November 2022, taking a moment to shower praise upon Ferreira.
