A-Rod and Jennifer Lopez breakup, end engagement. Who got next??


One of the biggest power couples in the entertainment industry have called it quits. Former New York Yankees All-Star Alex Rodriguez and music icon Jennifer Lopez have reportedly broken up, according to the New York Post.
The pair started dating in 2017, and got engaged in 2019. They were supposed to be married in 2020, but postponed the wedding twice as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Lopez told USA Today.
Lopez admitted in December there was no rush to get married to Rodriguez. She also said the two had talked about not getting married — similar to Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, who have been together for over 35 years but were never married.

Lopez and Rodriguez have not publicly acknowledged the break up. Rodriguez hasn't posted a photo with Lopez on Instagram since February. He did put up a post Friday asking fans if they had plans for the weekend.

J-Rod (A-Lo?) lives! On Friday, March 12, news broke that Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were breaking off their two-year engagement and ending their relationship. It turns out they’re still together, and they were actually just having kind of a bad day. The couple told TMZ, “All the reports are inaccurate. We are working through some things.” TMZ was also told that “what they’re working through has nothing to do with a third party,” referring to rumors that Rodriguez had been canoodling with Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy. When asked why reports came out that they had split up on Friday, sources close to the couple told TMZ that “things were ‘bad’ on Friday.” Who among us hasn’t had a fight with our partner that led to multiple national outlets reporting on our breakup but really we were just having kind of a rough spell, am I right? That being said, J.Lo should probably put some parental controls on A-Rod’s cable box to block Bravo from now on. Just to be safe.
 
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Are Reportedly Spending Time Together, in 2021

Is Bennifer back? A newly single Jennifer Lopez has recently been hanging out with an also recently single Ben Affleck, according to “Page Six.” A source told the outlet, “Security picks him up at a nearby location and drops him off after spending a few hours at her house” — maybe not quite the way you thought you’d see this iconic pair linking back up, but it’s something! “Page Six” also had pictures of Affleck leaving a car that reportedly belongs to J.Lo; sources said that the car dropped Affleck off at a Los Angeles hotel on April 22 and 29 and that the actor was also spotted leaving Lopez’s nearby home on April 28.

Now, before you spend your weekend obsessing over this news, here’s a caveat from a “Page Six” source: “They are friends … they’ve never not been.” Indeed, Affleck seems to have stayed on good terms with Lopez since the couple broke off their engagement in January 2004, considering he recently spoke to InStyle about his ex. Along with calling his Gigli co-star “the hardest-working person I’ve come across in this business,” Affleck mused of Lopez, “Where are you keeping the fountain of youth? Why do you look the same as you did in 2003 and it kind of looks like I’m in my 40s … at best?”

No comment there, but we will note that the two could just be tending the wounds of their recent splits. Lopez broke off her engagement to Alex Rodriguez two weeks ago, with J-Rod telling Today, “We have realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so.” The news came after a false report of their breakup in mid-March, after rumors that Rodriguez had been chatting with Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy. For his part, A-Rod doesn’t seem to be taking the split too well, posting a bizarre, Coldplay–set tribute to his relationship with J.Lo to Instagram with news of their split. “He still wants to get back together with Jennifer,” a source recently told People. “But to her, their relationship is over.”
Affleck split with his Deep Water co-star Ana de Armas in January, after the two spent most of 2020 consuming an inordinate amount of Dunkin iced coffee together. De Armas reportedly handed Affleck the news, which Affleck responded to by trashing his life-size cutout of De Armas.
 
This is not shocking at all. Many women do this after a certain age and body count, especially if they are narcissistic. They start to circle back through men they've been with.
They can't believe that they "picked wrong" and don't want to add to their "number", so it doesn't count if they do the same guy again.
Chick logic. :dunno:
