Jennifer Lopez reignited her romance with her ex, Ben Affleck. This shocked Alex Rodriguez who was her fiancée – until last month.

However, Jennifer and Ben have not confirmed that they are back again. They took a solo trip to Montana last week.

Moreover, a source told People Magazine that, “She (Jennifer Lopez) had a great time with Ben. Jennifer is happy with him. She enjoys spending time with him.”

Furthermore, a source close to Lopez told E! News, “A-Rod is shocked that J.Lo has moved on. He (Alex) truly thought they would be able to make it work and reconnect. He has been reaching out to J.Lo trying to meet with her and she has been very short with him.”

Alex Rodriguez After The Split

Alex Rodriguez focused on his health. In fact, he is at his best since his split from Lopez, shedding what he called his “dad-bod.” Furthermore, Alex seemed on good terms with his Lopez. They dined together after the split too.

His romance with Lopez certainly helped boost his image. Near the end of his MLB career, Rodriguez had admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs. Prior to that, he had an especially nasty divorce from his wife, Cynthia Scurtis, who accused him of cheating. At the time, Madonna publicly denied being the “other woman,” as they had been photographed out together. 

Rodriguez, dated Kate Hudson and Cameron Diaz, saw his reputation rebound after that. However, dating Jennifer Lopez bolstered it further. They seemed happy together, sharing beautiful photos of their blended family (he is a dad of two from his marriage with Cynthia). Alex was the perfect Instagram boyfriend to Lopez. Their relationship was lucrative.

While buying the New York Mets did not work out, they made a lot of money as a package deal in partnerships with various companies, pitching wellness products to coffee as a side hustle. (In fact, in late March — two weeks before confirming their split — they announced they will be promoting a vitamin line together.)

If Lopez and Affleck really are going to reboot Bennifer and embark on a romance 17 years later it will be interesting to see if they’d do so in such a public way.
