Vanessa recently made a cheeky gag about Ben as she posed with a snake

Remorseful Ben, 50, has spoken about how devastated he is to have hurt her, and it appears today’s post is an effort to show he still has feelings for her.

He simply uploaded a picture of an extravagant cake to his Instagram story with ‘happy birthday’ clearly visible around its base.

Vanessa turned 61 today.

It comes days after she took a cheeky swipe at Ben as she posed with a snake in Cork, Ireland.

Posing with the snake around her neck, Vanessa teased: “The only snake I want to deal with!”

She jetted on holiday with her family and spent her first Valentine’s Day without Ben in 16 years.

Instead, the radio and TV star got glammed up and enjoyed an afternoon tea with her family.

Vanessa ended her lengthy engagement to the musician after his lover contacted her daughter on Christmas Day.

She said she was “terribly humiliated” and devastated to learn about Ben’s behaviour, which was uncovered due to vile comments left online.

She has yet to allow him to apologise in person after she kicked him out of her £3.5million home.

Ben has since issued a grovelling apology and admitted that he did cheat on TalkTV host Vanessa.

“I just want it out there, me apologising to her for the pain I’ve caused,” Ben said.

“Of course I want to be with her, if she wants me back.”

Vanessa met Ben in 2005, having divorced surgeon Michael Kruer – who she shares daughters Allegra, 37, and Saskia, 34, with — in 2000 following claims of cheating.
