She explained that she learned the habit from her grandmother and mother, who would always pray with her when she was a child. Now, that she is older, she never fails to incorporate it into her everyday life.

The youngster revealed that she wrote the book at 7, but waited until she was older to publish it.

EMME'S NEW BOOK

ON LOPEZ AND RODRIGUEZ' BLENDED FAMILY

Emme shares her star mom with twin brother Max, whom Lopez welcomed during her marriage to Marc Anthony. The bright girl also has her mother's fiancé, Alex Rodriguez' daughters, Natasha, 15, and Ella, 12, as family.

Over the years, the large blended family has shown the world the tight bond they have, and the quarantine only made their connection better.

During a recent interview, Lopez revealed that before the pandemic, it was harder to gather the large clan for dinner. However, thanks to the lockdown, they have been able to bond over family dinner for several months.
