Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were reportedly up all Friday talking reports that they broke up dominated headlines.
On Saturday morning, the two released a statement saying they are “working through some things.”
via Page Six:
“All the reports are inaccurate. We are working through some things,” the two claimed in a statement obtained by Page Six.
The statement did not specifically acknowledge whether the mega-stars, collectively known as “J-Rod,” are still a couple — or even still engaged.
“They are trying to work through things… but it’s unclear if that means they are staying together,” a source close to the couple said.
It wasn’t immediately clear what their all-night chin wag was about, but the power pair, who has a number of business interests together, have been figuring out how to divide their vast assets, sources have said.
The two remain geographically apart. A source had told us on Friday of the pair: “He’s now in Miami getting ready for baseball season, and she’s filming her movie in the Dominican Republic.”
An insider close to the stars added, “they have been separated, and they’ve been having issues that couples often have.”
The same source told us of the stunning report that the couple was splitting: “Could they have a change of heart? Page Six might be responsible for bringing them back together.”
The stars, who have been dating for roughly four years, announced their engagement in 2019, but they then postponed their wedding twice, blaming it on the COVID-19 pandemic. Lopez recently revealed that she and Rodriguez saw a therapist during their time in quarantine.
The two were having a difficult time in their relationship in the weeks that led up to the split, insiders said.
“For the last two weeks they have not been together and the last few days they were not good,” sources tell us. “They’ve been having some crazy issues.”
A source further adds that 51-year-old Lopez has “recently been very upset on the set” of her latest film, “Shotgun Wedding,” which is filming in the Dominican Republic.
Rodriguez, meanwhile, has been home in Miami.
Sources exclusively tell Page Six that Lopez and Rodriguez were preparing to tell their children about the split Friday afternoon after Page Six called for comment.
Lopez shares 12-year-old twins Emme and Max with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Rodriguez is the dad of two daughters, Natasha and Ella, with ex Cynthia Scurtis. J.Lo also posted a pic on social media of her daughter apparently crying and leaning on dad Marc Anthony, with the caption “When they are sad but momma and daddy are there.” It’s unclear if the post was related to the breakup.
Meantime, the trouble in paradise came after rumors A-Rod had been FaceTiming with “Southern Charm” star Madison LeCroy. Sources close to the baseball legend shot down the rumors to The Post last month by saying, “He doesn’t know this woman.”
LeCroy, however, admitted the couple have “spoken on the phone,” but have “never met up” to Page Six. LeCroy did not comment when Page Six reached out to her on Friday.
Sources close to A-Rod and J.Lo are adamant that the LeCroy rumors did not cause the recent rift between the couple.
A source told Page Six on Friday, “There were already problems, but Jennifer was really embarrassed by it.”
Did Page Six jump the gun or did J-Rod have a sudden change of heart? Who knows.
