Jennifer Lopez and Fiancée, Rodriquez call off engagement
American singer and actress, Jennifer Lynn Lopez, popularly called J.Lo, has announced the end of her engagement with her fiancée, Alex Rodriguez. This is coming after the singer and her fiancée have both tried to sort out past issues.
The official statement reads,
“We have realized we are better as friends & look forward to remaining so. We will continue to work together & support each other on our shared businesses & projects. We wish the best for each other & one another’s children”
Lopez, 51, and former Yankees player Rodriguez, 45, became engaged in late 2019 after dating for two years. Few weeks ago, they had announced that they were “working through some things”, this came after the rumours of their separation in March.
“They never officially broke up and talked about it but are still together. They hit a rough patch. But they were not broken up. She’s working in the Dominican Republic and he’s in Miami so it’s tough seeing each other especially with quarantining and COVID, but they want to try to stay together”, a source told PEOPLE then.
“He flew back to spend a few more days with Jennifer,” an insider told PEOPLE about Rodriguez. “He is making a big effort, and he wants Jennifer to be happy.”
“Jennifer was excited to see him in person. They are really trying to figure things out,” a separate Lopez source told PEOPLE at the time. “It was a happy reunion.”
The source added that Lopez was “very much ready to give up” on their relationship but “she is happy they are still together.”
