Jennifer Lopez took to Instagram to celebrate her husband Ben Affleck in a “Daddy appreciation post” for Father’s Day.
The “Jenny From the Block” singer shared a carousel of content featuring Affleck including a shirtless mirror pic, several selfies and a video set to the audio of an interview clip featuring Lopez overlaid with other photos and videos as she talked about Affleck as a father. “He is honestly the best dad I have ever seen.”
“He teaches me about how to kinda interact with the kids sometimes, he’s just so in tune,” Lopez said in the interview clip.
“That’s all you can ask for, a present, loving dad who cares and who shows up every single day,” she continued.
Affleck and Lopez married last year, twice.
“Bennifer” took pop culture by storm in the early aughts. The Hollywood power couple got engaged in November 2002, but the bended knee didn’t end in happily ever after.
They reconciled in April 2021 and went Instagram official in July 2021, when Lopez posted a photo of her kissing Affleck while celebrating her 52nd birthday. They finally wed in an intimate ceremony in Las Vegaslast July and during a larger celebration at Affleck’s home outside of Savannah, Georgia, a month later last August.
“We did it,” Lopez wrote in July. “Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.”
