They say found family is always the best. Unlike the home of someone is born in, when one finds the people they vibe with, they actively choose to make them family. It’s easily one of the most popular tropes in fiction. Because there is nothing people love to see more than a person getting accepted, not because someone felt obligated to. But because they chose to. And it’s especially more heartwarming to see when it happens in real life. Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez’s families are prime examples.
The former couple dated for four years and even became engaged before COVID-19 ruined their plans. However, in all the time they spent together, A-Rod and J-Lo’s families were bound to cross paths sometime. Each of them, a parent to two kids, the singer, and the former Yankees slugger’s relationship left a lasting impact on their children’s lives. And it clearly showed when Rodriguez’s kids couldn’t stop gushing about Lopez’s daughter.

Super Bowl LVII just wrapped up with an exciting game between the Chiefs and the Eagles, with a great show by Rihanna at halftime. But let’s rewind to a few years ago, that is, Super Bowl 2020. At the halftime show of that particular game day, Jennifer Lopez gave a galvanizing performance with her chart-topping songs from the last few decades. But then she was joined by not only the queen of Latin music, Shakira, but also her daughter Emme!
“My favorite part was when the little girls came out and Emme sang, it was really good,” Ella Rodriguez told Entertainment Tonight. Her older sister, Natasha, also chimed. “It was the coolest thing to watch my stepsister sing. I’m so proud of her every time I see her and her voice is just angelic,” the then-15-year-old raved.
It’s rather unfortunate that the girls never became a family in the legal sense of the word. But they sure seem to hold a lot of love for each other in their hearts! Emme also has a twin brother called Max, who generally stays out of the spotlight.

Romantic partners come and go. It’s a natural part of life, much like birth and death. But sometimes partners try to prolong their time together and salvage what they have, just for their children’s sake. The former shortstop and Lopez tried to do exactly that, but of course, as we now know, things didn’t work out.
