Ben, 53, called time on his engagement with Vanessa, 63, in 2023 after 16 years together.
Now Ben has appeared to take yet another dig at former fiance and TV star Vanessa while on his honeymoon with his new wife.
The singer celebrated his wife's 30th birthday and posted a video of the pair enjoying a drink on a picturesque terrace, where he filmed Vanessa before turning the camera himself.
When the camera was on him, it showed him wearing a black cap with "2.0" embroidered on the front, which could be a dig at his former fiance by referring to his wife as his new Vanessa.
Ben captioned the post: "Jay-Z's quote is, 'Men lie, women lie, but numbers don't.'
It is not the first time Ben seemed to take a swipe at Vanessa Feltz and following his recent wedding at a Cumbria castle, told on Instagram how his nuptials were 'a new beginning' and added: "I wasted 17 years of my life."
He also opened up on his wedding, ahead of his big day.
Ben told MailOnline: "I have always wanted to be married since I was seven years old. I always wanted to be with someone who would take my surname.
"I almost gave up on marriage, thinking there wasn't a lady that would walk down the aisle for me.
"I can't believe the day has come, it is a dream come true. It feels like I've been waiting for this moment all my life.

Photo of Elle Macpherson confirms long-standing rumour about the model
A recent photo of Elle Macpherson has confirmed a long-standing rumour about the model's hair. The 61-year-old posted a series of holiday snaps to Instagram on Tuesday and one image appears to confirm that Elle wears hair extensions to add volume to her locks. The photo shows Elle walking through a European city in a brown shirt and matching skirt. She had her long blonde locks tied into a messy bun but as she looked down, one of her hair extension bonds was visible. The clip-in extension was noticeable on the top of her head as she pulled her locks back. Hollywood stars and models often wear wigs and hair extensions to achieve a more youthful appearance as hair thins and loses volume with age. Elle is renowned for her radiant, luscious locks and youthful complexion. She previously revealed how she protects her hair when she's not working with the best in the beauty business. From ditching the hot tools to protecting her locks from the harsh sun, Elle shared her top five tips for optimal health hair on her Get The Gloss column. She said she is a big believer that eating well and having a healthy gut plays a crucial role in keeping hair thick and luscious. 'The gut plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption,' she said. 'The combination of botanical herbs, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics that feature in The Super Elixir™ and The Hair Elixir [from WelleCo] will keep your gut microbiome, and in turn your hair, healthy.' Elle also explained it's best to put the hot tools down and keep hair natural as much as possible. Elle also said it's important to protect hair from the sun and believes this is key to keeping her hair silky and healthy. When she is out in the sun and the sea, she uses hydrating and protecting masks. In colder climates, the supermodel wears her hair in braids with a leave-in mask to ensure UV protection and hydration. And one of Elle's biggest tips for healthier hair is a well-looked-after scalp. She likes to give herself a gentle scalp massage with a natural oil like coconut, almond, or jojoba to improve blood circulation and stimulate hair growth.
