Jennifer Lopez just celebrated her 52nd birthday with Ben Affleck on a luxurious yacht in the South of France.
The singer-actress made their rekindled relationship Instagram official on Saturday. A source told Fox News, "[Lopez] is accepting the gift of happiness at this stage in her life and the love she and Ben share is icing on a delicious cake."
"Jennifer is happy and appreciative that into her 50s she can still do what she loves doing – which today, allows her to feel younger given her overall approach to health consciousness and the fact she keeps herself very active," the source added. "She has health and family which is all she needs to make herself whole."
The pair jetted off to the French Riviera and were snapped relaxing on a luxurious yacht and partying at a club in St. Tropez. She donned a $650 bikini and matching $2,300 cape, both by Valentino.

A source explained "before they broke up, J.Lo and A-Rod had planned a trip together to the French Rivera for her birthday. Ultimately, he decided not to change his plans and still go—and she also decided to keep her trip but go with Ben, which is why they're all there right now."
