Considering that Jennifer Lopez has been given two jaw-dropping engagement rings from Ben Affleck over the course of their relationship, her fans may have assumed her wedding band would be just as impressive.

However, the 52-year-old took to Instagram to share an intimate bedroom photo of herself the morning after she married actor Ben, showing off a surprisingly modest ring on her left hand. "Sadie! #iykyk Go to OnTheJLo for all the deets. #linkinbio," JLo captioned the photo, which saw the fresh-faced star wearing no makeup as she smiled at the camera.

The plain platinum band on her finger was reportedly worth $1k, which is just a fraction of the eye-watering $5 million her engagement ring is worth.

Jenny Luker, president of Platinum Guild International USA, said: "Jennifer's wedding ring is a classic and timeless style! It looks like a wide, domed platinum band. Jennifer's ring is a beautiful symbol of her love and commitment to Ben because platinum is precious, rare and lasts a lifetime. I would estimate this ring costs around $1,000."

Jennifer and Ben, who first began dating in 2002, got married at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, which has also acted as a wedding venue for celebrities such as Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. The bride looked stunning in two gowns – one sleeveless lacy gown from an old movie, and another off-the-shoulder gown with sheer lacy sleeves.

This comes just three months after the couple announced their engagement on 8 April by sharing an emotional video in her On the JLo newsletter that showed Jennifer sporting a green rock flanked by white trapezoid diamonds on either side.

Diamantaire Ilan Portugali of Beverly Hills Diamonds explained it featured a very rare 8.5-carat natural green cushion modified brilliant cut diamond.

While Us Weekly reported it could be worth up to $10 million, Platinum Guild International's Jenny said the estimated price is supposedly somewhere over $5 million (around £3.8 million). "Since natural green diamonds are very rare, I would estimate this ring costs at least $5 million," Jenny explained.
