Alex Rodriguez has dated several high-profile women over the years. Both during his baseball career and post-retirement. But his relationship with pop icon Jennifer Lopez gained the most media attention. Although their relationship fell apart in four years, A-Rod went beyond expectations with a special gesture for his then-girlfriend JLo.

A-Rod once talked about the proposal and all the planning that went into it. And he focussed on a specific detail that he wanted to be perfect no matter what.

Alex Rodriguez revealed the details of his proposal for JLo and the preparation that went into it

During his appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon in 2019, Alex Rodriguez talked in detail about proposing to JLo. The former Yankee mentioned he had been planning it for 6 months. He further said that he had to practice the proposal for three days in a row before the actual thing. This was because he wanted the sunset to be perfect during the moment.
