Before Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez had brief starry romantic flings, he was a happily married man. He was married to a woman named Cynthia Scurtis. ‘A-Rod’ and Cynthia share two daughters. Post-divorce, Cynthia once got into a verbal battle with Jennifer ‘J-Lo’ Lopez.

Alex ‘A-Rod’ Rodriguez is a popular baseball player famous for his stint with the New York Yankees. ‘A-Rod’ is a 14-time All-Star. He also won the World Series trophy with the Yankees in 2009. While Cynthia Scurtis is a former psychology teacher and Jennifer ‘J-Lo’ Lopez is a pop music megastar plus actress. 

Cynthia and ‘A-Rod’ maintained good ties even post-divorce. Cynthia had no problems with any of Rodriguez’s girlfriends, either. But that was until ‘J-Lo’ came along.

But that was also partly because none interfered in legal matters of ‘A-Rod’ and Cynthia. That was until ‘J-Lo’ paired up with ‘A-Rod’. It was already a mutually agreed decision for ‘A-Rod’ to pay child-support fees to Cynthia. But like many times in her past, ‘J-Lo’ took matters in her own hands with ‘A-Rod’. In a strange twist, ‘J-Lo’ advised ‘A-Rod’ to curtail the monthly child support payment from $100,000 to $10,000 per month. 

The intrusion from ‘J-Lo’ clearly hurt Cynthia. According to a source, speaking on the Lopez issue, Cynthia stated, “All I can tell you, there’s been a shift, and I’m not sure what to attribute it to. Alex has dated some wonderful women since our divorce, many of whom have had positive relationships with our children. Alex and I have worked well trying to create a stable environment for our daughters and there has never been an issue. Until now.”

Cynthia further added saying, “I would never try to disparage anyone Alex is dating. It’s ridiculous. I try very hard to stay uninvolved. The subject of Lopez is sensitive and better left not commented on in any way.” 

Where is the trio now?
