'We had a great time': Alex Rodriguez is ALL PRAISE for Jennifer Lopez after breakup
Alex Rodriguez, also known as A-Rod, and Jennifer Lopez started dating in February 2017, but broke up four years later - a few months after the former baseball star proposed. On Wednesday, July 13, the former MLB star met with Martha Stewart and spoke with her on her podcast, 'The Martha Stewart Show', and only had good things to say about his renowned ex.
"Here's what I will tell you about Jennifer, and I was telling some of my colleagues here the other day, she's the most talented human being I've ever been around," A-Rod, 46, said on the podcast. "Hardest worker. And I think she is the greatest performer, live performer in the world today that's alive."

Talking about their relationship, he said, "Look, we had a great time. More importantly, we always put the kids front and center in everything we do."
The "On the Floor" singer is the mother to 14-year-old twins Emme and Maximilian with her ex-husband Mark Anthony, while the three-time MVP is the father of Natasha, 17, and Ella, 14, with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis.
The ability to raise his girls today has "been the greatest gift," according to A-Rod, whose father left his family when he was just 10 years old. The couple still "wishes the best for each other and one another's children," even if it seems they have moved past their relationship.
The 'Marry Me' star and Ben Affleck, with whom she had a brief engagement in 2004, have since revived their romance. The two appeared to have gotten back into sync as the actor proposed again earlier this year.

Everything seems to be going well for J Lo now that she's found love again with Affleck, whereas A-Rod seems to be a bit of a mess in that department. The former MLB champion is prepared to move on, but he hasn't yet found the ideal match, despite being linked to a few women so far.
By hanging out with famous people like Katie Holmes and Kelly Bensimon of RHONY in recent months, A-Rod has fueled dating rumours. However, given how devoted A-Rod is to finding "the one" once more, it seems that none of these relationships have lasted.
A source told Us Weekly on January 26, 2022, "He's in the playing field looking for someone he can eventually be in a serious committed relationship with. He'd love to find the next 'J. Lo' – he just hasn't met 'her' yet. … At the moment he's single and having fun. It's not easy for him to date being in the spotlight."
