Jennifer Lopez has finally filed for divorce from her husband , Ben Affleck , after months of speculation, and now her ex-beau has entered the chat after posting a cryptic quote to Instagram. Alex Rodriguez , star of the New York Yankees and one of the best baseball players ever, took to his Instagram stories the same day the news broke of Bennifer's split. He reposted a quote that read, "You either go one way or the other.
You might as well be the one deciding the direction," causing a frenzy as fans tried to decode if the message was about his ex-fiancé. Alex and Jennifer began dating in February 2017 after the pair bumped into each other and he asked her out to dinner. After a PDA-filled romance, the couple got engaged in March 2019 but sadly called it quits in April 2021.
They released a statement after the fact, which read, "We have realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so. We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects." They continued, "We wish the best for each other and one another's children.
Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have is to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support." Interestingly, Ben was spotted outside Jennifer's home in April 2021, leading to speculation that they had rekindled their romance. The pair then made their red carpet debut as a couple in September of that year.
Despite the timeline, Alex has only had kind things to say about.
