The world knows about Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez, their engagement, their postponed marriage, and the rumors that encircled their split. Markedly, the then-power couple split in 2021, citing that their relationship had run its course.

After the couple split, A-Rod started to spend lots of time with his kids, and in extension, his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis. The couple got married in 2002 and got divorced in 2008 after Cynthia indicated reasons like emotional abandonment. Very palpably, their marriage never ended well, despite their two daughters. However, after his breakup with J.Lo, the previous couple started spending lots of time together.

As a source told Vanity Fair, Cynthia Scurtis “wasn’t the biggest fan,” of pop star Jennifer Lopez. Moreover, the same source also added, “He has a lot of respect for her husband and they’ve gotten closer as friends. Cynthia and Alex’s relationship started off very messy, but they’ve certainly got closer in the past year or so.”

However, putting a stop to all speculations, A-Rod eventually started dating model Kathryne Padgett. Moving on, according to some sources from last month, A-Rod and Kat Padgett weren’t “serious” and their relationship concluded last month.
