The Do It Well hitmaker — who raises twins Max and Emme with husband Marc Anthony — has enjoyed spending time away from the limelight and thinks it has helped her realize what’s important to her.
“I think you have to know what is most important to you,” she said. “And I think you have to realize that as much as you put into work, you have to put into your relationship and your children — but more so. That is how you balance it.
“For me, my family is the most important thing and everything else comes after that. It is hard to do everything, but you just have to. You have to make that effort.
“I have put so much time into my career in the past, so much time trying to get ahead and all that. But you have to do as much and then more for your home life too.
“I try to spend all my free time with Marc and the babies. It’s all a learning curve really.
“The last year has been an amazing time for us, me and Marc. I just wish I could be in two places at once. I would rather be at home now with my babies if I could be.”
