The “Genie In A Bottle” singer’s kids rarely feature on her social media but she recently made an exception by posting pictures of them from a family vacation.
Fans couldn’t help but gush over Christina Aguilera’s rare glimpse into her family life as she shared photos of her children, Max Liron and Summer Rain, showcasing their style and growth.
Christina shares her son, Max with her ex-husband Jordan Bratman, and her daughter Summer with fiancé Matt Rutler. Pictures from their family vacation that were shared on her Instagram, featured Christina, Max, Summer, and Matt.
One photo captured Christina and Matt goofing around, with Matt lifting her on his shoulders. Other shots showed the mother-daughter duo relaxing on a couch, enjoying the company of a friend.
A few more images featured Christina having a blast on her own, whether on a boat or lounging in a swimming pool—truly a fun-filled vacation.
However, it was a family photo that captured fans’ attention. Max, who seems to have surpassed his mom’s height, stood next to her while she wore heels to add a bit of height to her petite frame.
The teenager, looking away from the camera, stood beside his mom, who had one arm around his shoulders and the other resting over her daughter, with Matt standing in the background. Fans shared their happiness on seeing Christina Aguilera’s grown kids.
One fan marveled at how much they’ve grown, saying, “Omg those beautiful kids have gotten so big!!❤️❤️❤️.” Another was struck by Max’s height, exclaiming, “Wow Max is Taller than you now!!! Insane!! 😱.” One more fan concurred, “Omg Max is so big… Beautiful family 🥰.”
Some fans noted the resemblance between mother and son, “Max is your twin Mamas. Such beautiful moments. Thanks for sharing with us! ❤️.” Another shared their excitement about Summer’s growth, “Summer is a big girl alreadyyyyy 😍.”
In admiration of the family bond, a fan gushed, “The last photo is beautiful, how your children have grown, we miss seeing Max in the photos, they both have mommy’s fashionista style 😍.” Others simply expressed their joy, “Sooooo cute.”
Christina dotes on her kids, whom she previously called “the center of [her] universe.” With her busy career in entertainment, she is determined to prioritize Max and Summer. In 2019, she opened up about the challenges of balancing motherhood with her dynamic career, “It’s definitely not easy. I will openly say that.”
However, even her work, Christina emphasized that motherhood is a full-time job to her. “You just have to make it work for you. My life has so many different moving parts, but my kids are the center focal piece, and everything else shifts around them,” she revealed.
The singer’s focus is always on making sure her kids feel safe and connected to her. When Max, 18, was transitioning into his tween years, Christina revealed he was becoming more independent.
Meanwhile, her younger daughter, Summer, 10, remained closely bonded to her. This demonstrated the different stages of connection she experienced with her children at varying ages.

Back in 2018, during her Liberation Tour, the singer had her daughter, Summer, join her on stage at one point. Behind the scenes, Summer remained a steady presence, often accompanying her mother throughout the tour.
Christina shared that although her daughter is usually very shy, she was determined not to miss one of her mother’s performances. “I was shocked. If I was her, I would just be sitting on the bus watching my favorite TV shows. But she wanted to be at the side of the stage where she could see me,” the singer said.

Christina revealed that after her performances, Summer would often insist on being invited on stage, expressing her disappointment if it didn’t happen every night. The singer found the moments endearing but acknowledged they couldn’t make it a nightly occurrence.
Still, Summer enjoyed the surge of energy during tour travels, including the costumes everyone wore. “I would let her wear her PAW Patrol costume every single night. Now she’s super into Spider-Man,” the singer revealed.
As for her kids’ creative pursuits, Christina shared in Q&A on X in 2018 that while she and Summer enjoy singing Disney songs together, her son Max has an incredible voice. Though Max doesn’t sing much, Christina caught him singing “Maria” and was amazed by his pitch-perfect talent, hinting he could pursue music if he wanted to.
Christina, who is proud of her kids, takes joy in embracing her creativity through her music career. However, she is most comfortable doing so only when her children are thriving in their own pursuits. In true motherly fashion, this approach ensures their interests and passions are prioritized, giving her the freedom to focus on her artistic endeavors.
