Jennifer Lopez’s star-studded 50th birthday bash had one very unexpected face in the crowd after Coronation Street actor Ryan Thomas was spotted in the crowds.
The former soap star looked absolutely delighted to be part of the lavish bash, held at the Miami home of Gloria and Emilio Estefan.
Ryan, 35, looked dapper in a crisp white shirt, white blazer and gold leopard printed tie as he stood just inches away from the birthday girl.
The gold-themed birthday bash was a world away from Ryan’s life on the cobbles, but he looked in his element as he chatted away to JLo and her fiancé Alex Rodriguez.
Guests at the party, which was thrown for JLo by Pretty Little Thing owner Umar Kamani, included DJ Khaled and Ashanti.
Billionaire Umar and Ryan are best friends, which goes some way in explaining how the TV star ended up bagging an invitation to the exclusive bash for Jennifer’s milestone birthday.
Ryan, who won Celebrity Big Brother in 2018, was seen whooping and cheering as the superstar singer regaled the crowds with an impromptu duet with Hold You Down collaborator Fat Joe, who also DJed the party.
The birthday girl, dressed in a sparkling Versace number, was held aloft on a chair by backing dancers as her guests were treated to the live performance.
Her gold themed party featured a giant six-tiered cake and she was presented with a $140,000 Porsche as a gift from her fourth husband-to-be Alex.
The couple, who have been together since 2017 hit the dance floor for a mini-dance off before cutting the cake.
Also in attendance was JLo’s ex-husband Marc Anthony along with their 11-year-old twins Max and Emma.
Alex's own daughters Ella, 11, and Natasha, 14, who he shares with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis, were also pictured inside enjoying their step-mum's birthday celebrations.
