With the former World Series Champion and Jennifer Lopez announcing their separation in February, A-Rod appeared to not want to engage about the subject at all. Jennifer Lopez too was not too vocal about the split at the time.
However, as time went on, the rumors of her getting back with her former beau, Ben Affleck, began growing. And finally, the announcement of their engagement rolled around on April 8th via her own website, and like any good friend, Michael Kay couldn’t resist the opportunity as it presented itself.

Aware of exactly what he had said, Kay instantly chuckled as he play-punched his co-host. Aware of what Kay was getting him to do, A-Rod just laughed awkwardly and retorted with a general comment. Said A-Rod, “Happiness and world peace is what we’re looking for.
Clearly looking to start no new conversation, Rodriguez seems to have made his ‘peace’ with the situation. The former couple announced their separation after being engaged for two years in April 2021. While Lopez has since moved on and is now with Ben Affleck, details about A-Rod’s romantic situation are still elusive.
