Anthony and Ferreira, 25, married in January 2023 and welcomed a son that June. It wasn't until the baby's 1st birthday last month that Ferreira revealed they named their little one Marco.

"Today marks one year since you came into the world, to teach me so many things... one of them being the greatest love that exists... being your mother, my son," she gushed on Instagram. "There’s no way to explain the infinite love I feel for you and the excitement of watching you grow and teaching you new things every day. Happy birthday to the greatest blessing of my life. My beloved Marco!"

The twins have been in the spotlight lately due to Lopez's rumored breakup from Ben Affleck.

"Being the child of famous parents is really not something that many people can understand, and I feel for them for that because they didn’t choose that," the "I'm Real" crooner explained of parenting in a previous interview.

"I haven’t talked to them a lot about this but we have just started — they have just started letting me know, like, how people treat them and do things like that," the mother-of-two continued. "They're not seeing them for who they are. And I think that has to be a really hard thing for them. So I would love to be able to protect them from that."

"It's hard for them, I think. And I did that to them, and so again we have this guilt as moms, what we do and what we brought into their lives," Lopez said. "So there's that part."

TMZ reported on the fire.
