Some time in the sunshine: Jennifer Lopez is enjoying Hawaii with her boyfriend Casper Smart


Jennifer Lopez is soaking up the sun in paradise on a Hawaiian getaway with her man, and she wants the world to know.

The 42-year-old singer celebrated Thanksgiving on the island of Kauai with her twins, other family members and her boyfriend Casper Smart.

But today it was all about one-on-one time for the millionaire superstar and her 24-year-old beau, as they cuddled up in a cabana.


Looking very much the couple, the scantily-clad pair cuddled and cavorted in the shade as the sun beat down outside.

An onlooker told the Mail Online: 'He seemed very protective towards her, it was quite sweet... he seemed like the older one, they seemed if not love, well, very happy to be together.

Jenny from the Block was reportedly been seen frolicking on a beach with her three-year-old twins, Max and Emme.

Casper, whose real-name is Beau Paul Smart, has tried to remain in the shadows, until today.

As Mail Online has previously reported, Casper has had numerous run-ins with the law since 2004.

Most of the charges have been minor motoring misdemeanors relating to either speeding or driving without a valid license and failures to appear in court.

In one case he was pulled over by police for speeding on his motorbike at over 100mph.

But his most recent offence committed in February 2010 could potentially land him behind bars.

The charge relates to an 'exhibition of speed' a section of the law more commonly known as street or drag racing.

The dancer - who was rumoured to have met the 42-year-old mother of two in May - pleaded no contest to the charge in March after an initial not guilty plea.

His bail was set at $26,000 - and he is yet to be sentenced, according to the court records.

Smart is due in court to be sentenced by a judge in Los Angels January 5, 2012 and could face jail time as well as a stiff fine.

While he awaits his fate, Casper has been busy with work committments.
Last Sunday he performed alongside Lopez at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles.
