Jennifer Lopez has paid a loving tribute to husband Ben Affleck on his 51st birthday.

Taking to Instagram, the Jenny From The Block singer, 54, uploaded a clip showing her sat in the passenger seat of Affleck’s car as they sang along to Sam Cooke’s Wonderful World with the windows rolled down.

They both mouthed the lyrics: “Don’t know much about the French I took / But I do know that I love you / And I know that if you love me, too / What a wonderful world this would be.”

“Dear Ben … Happy Birthday. I love you!” she captioned the post.

Her 250m followers rushed to offer their own well wishes in the comment section.

“This is too cute. You glow when you’re with him. Happy birthday Ben!” wrote one person.

“Aw, the most adorable couple I’ve ever seen,” penned another, along with four heart eye emojis.

Adding: “Happy Birthday Ben”.

A month later, the couple hosted a lavish, star-studded wedding at Affleck’s Georgia estate.
