Once upon a time, former New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez and "Papi" singer Jennifer Lopez were a power couple. Beginning with attending Super Bowls together to co-parenting their children, J.Lo and A-Rod were goals. Nevertheless, the pair called it quits in April 2021 after getting engaged in 2019.
On July 27, 2022, Alex Rodriguez celebrated his 47th birthday in a unique fashion by playing golf.

The world remembers how Jennifer Lopez once resorted to Instagram and wrote a heart-touching note on Rodriguez's 45th birthday. Jennifer's choice of words imply she was once head-over-heels in love with the MLB star.
Jennifer wrote:
"You're on TV right now and I'm sitting here in the studio looking at you and thinking about how I just want to be here with you...laughing, joking and enjoying life together...whatever it is, wherever it is...it doesn't matter. That's the blessing that I have in you..... Happy Birthday 13."
