Jennifer Lopez is a doting mom-of-two, and her twins Emme and Max - who she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony - have always been the babies of the family.

However, over the weekend, Emme and Max faced a big, exciting change as they became big siblings for the first time! Marc Anthony announced on Instagram that he had welcomed his seventh child with wife Nadia Ferreira.

The singer shared a lovely black-and-white photo of himself holding his newborn, alongside the caption: "God's timing is always perfect Happy Father’s Day."

The 53-year-old pop sensation said that watching him raise their children brings tears to her eyes. "He's an amazing dad. It brings tears to my eyes.

He is honestly the best dad I've ever seen. He's so involved, he teaches me about how to interact with the kids sometimes," she shared.

Describing Ben as a "present, loving dad who cares," Jennifer admires how in tune he is with their children. "He's just so in tune, he's such a brilliant guy anyway like he's so learned in so many things, and you can just tell when he's had his kids, he read every book and everything you could possibly learn about children, and he applies it and is present and that's all you can ask for."

Most recently to mark Father's Day, Jennifer paid tribute to her husband on Instagram.

She wrote: "Happy Father’s Day Papa. Daddy Appreciation Post. And Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing Papas out there!! We love you and appreciate you more than you will ever know."
