Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez have now long moved on from the life they once shared. As known by everyone, soon after breaking up, the Hustler actress reunited with her ex-fiance, Ben Affleck. The two got engaged a few months after that and got married in a close-knit perfect wedding earlier this year. As for Rodriguez, he seems to be in his second relationship after Lopez. But it isn’t his second relationship that made quite a buzz. It was his first relationship after Lopez with a fitness enthusiast, Kathryne Padgett. People got to know about it after Rodriguez was spotted kissing the 25-year-old while on vacation in Italy.
It would not have come as a shock if A-Rod’s new relationship had affected Lopez. But it didn’t seem like the former Yankee dating a 21 years younger woman had any effect on JLo.
