Another prominent couple bites the dust. On Friday, Page Six reported that entertainer Jennifer Lopez and former MLB MVP Alex Rodriguez have officially ended their relationship. The break-up concludes the couple’s 2-year engagement. 

The news of the separation comes in the midst of infidelity rumors involving Rodriguez, who was rumored to have had relations with Southern Charm actress Madison Lecroy during his engagement to Lopez. Although sources close to A-Rod maintain he never met Lecroy, J-Lo was reportedly embarrassed by the ordeal, and it’s said to be the main reason for their separation. 

The relationship began back in early 2017, culminating in an engagement in March of 2019. Despite their plans to wed, their marriage was postponed twice due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Regarding the postponements, Lopez stated:

“I’m a little heartbroken because we did have some great plans, but I’m also like, you know what? God has a bigger plan. So we just have to wait and see. Maybe it’s going to be better. I have to believe that it will be.”

The newly-single stars have both been linked to high-profile celebrities in the past, so it should be interesting to see how they move on from each other.

Rodriguez, the father of two girls, had been tied to stars such as Cameron Diaz and Kate Hudson. Lopez has a dating history that includes Sean “Diddy” Combs, Ben Affleck, and Drake. She is also the mother of twins; children that came from her past marriage to Marc Anthony.
