“Alike in Many Ways…”: Despite Superstar Status, Pop Icon Jennifer Lopez Once Made an Odd Alex Rodriguez Claim While Dating the Yankees Legend

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez used to be claimed as a match made in heaven. Well, there’s a reason behind it, of course. This dynamic duo used to be often involved in actions to help needy people. Even the couple claimed themselves to have similar qualities, despite being from different fields.

A-Rod and JLo used to appear in interviews frequently and talk about their relationship. The couple had never been secretive about their love and dating. However, in a show, JLo claimed their similarities as the USP of their relationship.

The pop-sensation and the baseball legend formed the relationship from two distant professional fields where they are not connected to each other’s professions from any angle. However, this distance never affected their love while they were dating. They are frequently spotted together at various locations.

Fans accepted this duo and admired them wholeheartedly. Even the pop star claimed she and her ex-boyfriend had the most qualities in common when they went for an interview session with Entertainment Tonight. Back in 2017, during a question-answer segment, she claimed, “We’re very alike in many ways. And, I think that’s what makes it work, and I think that’s why people respond to the fact that we got together.”

While A-Rod, with a big laugh, corrected her and added, there are even a few exceptions. These include that he can’t dance or sing like her, and they aren’t twins. While the 3xMVP saying this, his ex-girlfriend seemed to be embarrassed and tried to stop him.

This celebrity couple had become the Power Couple for a reason. They used to work for the society and people who are in need. Providing food to the school student, arranging concerts to help with disaster relief, etc., inclined their popularity among fans. They share mutual love and respect. So, even if they belong to two distant fields, they travel miles to support each other. They both had these qualities in common that the actress thought to be responsible for their successful relationship.

While everything was going fine, and this couple was preparing to tie the knot, fate decided something else. Despite so many common things, the duo broke up after 4 years of relationship and moved on in their lives.

Why did the Power Couple Break Up?

While JLo and A-Rod seemed to share a bond that could not be broken, eventually, they broke up, disheartening millions of followers. After dating for 4-years and having a grand engagement ceremony, the 54-year-old actress and the former Yankees legend decided to stay as friends and not move further. The reason for their breakup was not clearly known as none of them ever gave any media statement. Before the actress officially posted the news, rumors had been flying around.

However, sources said Rodriguez was in a relationship with another model, which hurt JLo deeply, and she took the step, while others say it is JLo who wanted to give her ex-husband Ben Affleck another chance. So, she broke up with A-Rod.

Whatever the reason was, this couple, who used to be considered the Power Couple in both the baseball world and Hollywood, didn’t save their relationship. They both have moved on in their respective lives, while fans still look for the reason behind their separation. Ben Affleck and the ‘On the Floor’ singer was spotted after her breakup with the 2009 World Champion, which increased the assumption that this is probably the reason for her cutting off the relationship with A-Rod. Also, A-Rod’s rumored relationship with Madison LeCroy was another sound reason assumed by the fans.
