Reasons Behind Their Instant Connection: From Fitness to Parenthood Which Make Them a Great Couple

The power-packed duo has quite a lot of similarities. Apart from having similar interests in fitness, they also have similar parental instincts. A source last year told People.com, “She may be as strict about her own regimen as he is. Alex and Jaclyn are both fitness obsessed and into exercise and bodybuilding.” Now that’s something to be equally obsessed about! 

Moreover, over time, A-Rod became her client too. He, in fact, got into better shape when he didn’t look and feel his best earlier in 2023, feeling bogged down by the load of work. That said, his ex-wife, Cynthia, whom he shares a cordial relationship with too, took Jac’s fitness advice to get into better shape. That said, what about the former Yankee’s daughters?

Well, Ella and Natasha both seem to share a great bond with Jaclyn. That should come as no surprise, given that Cordeiro herself is a mother of two daughters. She penned down her words in Status Fitness Magazine a couple of years ago, that her “life’s goal is to raise strong, independent, kind daughters.” Sounds similar to how Rodriguez’s mantra for his daughters. With that, maybe the slugger did hit a home run with his girlfriend of one year.
