It’s official. Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are no longer a couple. It doesn’t matter if you Google it and get mixed results about the status of their relationship. According to the couple, they are no longer together.
Lopez and Rodriguez had been together for 4 years. It seemed that they had a lot in common and that their relationship would last.
Rodriguez proposed to Lopez in the Bahamas in March 2019. The couple would have been married by now if it weren’t for the pandemic. Instead, they postponed and eventually canceled their wedding plans claiming that it was due to circumstances and not the strength of their relationship.
This would have been Lopez’s 4th marriage. She was previously married to Ojani No, Cris Judd and Marc Anthony. She has two children with Anthony, 13-year-old twins named Max and Emma.
Just six weeks ago, Lopez posted some pretty cozy looking photos of herself and Rodriguez on Instagram.
It seems that they were trying to work out whatever issues they faced in their relationship. Yet, according to the couple, they would rather be friends than significant others.

According to TODAY, sources revealed that Lopez and Rodriguez had difficulty seeing each other during quarantine. Lopez was working in the Dominican Republic while Rodriguez was in Miami.
