What?! How?! They were just at president Joe Biden’s inauguration and months before that they were trying to purchase the New York Mets!

Sadly, according to the latest reports and rumors, former New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez have split up, ending their four-year relationship and two-year engagement.

The couple had to cancel their wedding twice over the past year due to the global pandemic and unfortunately this will mark their third time calling it off.

And what kind of break-up would it be without there being some sort of rumored scandal in the weeds?

Though it’d be crushing if this were true — after all, both fans of Rodriguez and Lopez loved the good vibes the power couple emanated — Rodriguez was said to be recently FaceTiming with “Southern Charm” star Madison LeCroy, according to the gossip, which may have contributed to the split.

However, A-Rod’s been no stranger to controversy throughout his career and in his personal life. Yankees fans remember plenty of that.

Pertaining to the LeCroy rumor, she told Page Six that her and Rodriguez have “never met up,” whereas someone close to A-Rod said that he “doesn’t know this woman.” LeCroy did mention that they have spoken on the phone, however, which would line up with whatever this gossip is suggesting.

And if you want to read more about it, LeCroy’s co-star Shep Rose had plenty to say to US Weekly about it.

Now, A-Rod is in Miami preparing for the 2021 MLB season while Lopez is in the Dominican Republic filming her next movie. We’ll obviously be waiting for a confirmation because it’s never fun to live through the unsubstantiated chatter, but this is all that’s out there at the moment.

As of right now, J-Rod is no more, but it’d surely be great if even former Yankees didn’t manifest bad vibes heading into an all-important campaign with World Series aspirations.

And we hate to say it, but maybe Jose Canseco was onto something all along? That would be the plot twist of all plot twists.
