The “Grease” star shared a heartwarming photo of his beloved son, who was dressed in a black t-shirt, receiving affectionate licks on his face from the family dog. “Happy birthday my Ben. Your dad loves you! And so does Peanut!” captioned John alongside the image.
Ella’s post displayed the young boy looking out into the distance while sitting on a boat on the water, against the backdrop of a beautiful sunset and mountains.
He wore a blue t-shirt and his hair appeared slightly longer than it was in his dad’s photo. “Happy Birthday Benjamin!!!!!! I love you❤️,” expressed the big sister in her caption.
