Jennifer Lopez is celebrating Christmas Eve with her loved ones.
On Wednesday, Dec. 24, the singer and actress, 56, shared a carousel of photos of herself and her family snuggling on the couch ahead of Christmas Day.
“‘Twas the night… 🎀✨🎄,” her caption read as she glowed in striped pajamas and with a velvet ribbon in her hair.
After sharing a selfie of herself smiling in front of a Christmas tree, the “If You Had My Love” artist shared a snap of herself and family members wearing matching pajamas.
The group, which included Lopez’s sister Lynda Lopez and her child Emme Maribel, 17, appeared in great spirits as they grinned for the camera.

Lopez’s carousel included another photo of herself crossing her legs in front of the Christmas tree, as well as another snap of the loved ones cozying up together on the couch.
“Merry Christmas queen 🥹🎄❤️ May you and your family have the best time ever. Sending you love always 🫶🏼,” one fan commented under the post.
Another wrote, “Merry Christmas to you and your family ! ❤️🎄.”
The Kiss of the Spider Woman star — who also shares Emme and twin Maximilian “Max” David with ex-husband Marc Anthony — shared more selfies on her Instagram Stories, with a caption reading, “Merry Christmas Eve.”
Lopez is known for celebrating Christmas Eve with her family members.
Last year, the mother of two shared a clip of family members decorating the Christmas tree.
“Merry Christmas Eve,” she wrote while flashing a large smile next to the decoration.
Lopez’s recent Christmas Eve post comes after a source told PEOPLE that she and ex-husband Ben Affleck reunited alongside his son Samuel for some shopping for the holidays in L.A.

“They met up and went shopping together. Jen and Ben seemed fine,” the insider told PEOPLE. “The focus was mostly on Sam.”
“He was excited and chatty. They shopped for gifts in several high-end stores,” the source added. “Jen asked a lot of questions and picked up gifts for Ben’s kids. They arrived and left separately.”
This came as the pair were pictured arriving at the Farmshop for lunch.
Lopez and Affleck were married from in 2022 until their split in 2024. They were previously engaged from 2002 until 2004.
