Jennifer Lopez has revealed that while she is yet to set a date or pick a venue for her wedding to Alex Rodriguez, there is one thing that is for certain – her son Max will walk her down the aisle. The Hustlers actress revealed she will put a sweet spin on tradition for her third wedding, with her 11-year-old son doing the honours of giving her away, instead of her father David.
“Of course,” Jennifer told Entertainment Tonight when asked if Max would walk her down the aisle. The 50-year-old shares Max and his twin sister, Emme, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, and it’s likely she will also play a starring role in Jennifer’s bridal party.
