From crushing 696 HRs over a 22-year MLB career to constantly making headlines off the field, Alex Rodriguez has always lived life in the spotlight. While fans know him as one of baseball’s biggest stars, A-Rod’s personal life, from his high-profile relationships to his close bond with his two daughters, has often drawn just as much attention.

After Rodriguez and his ex-wife came together to support their daughter during a special family moment, reports surfaced that he and his girlfriend, Jaclyn Cordeiro, have called it quits.
“Alex Rodriguez and girlfriend Jaclyn Cordeiro broke up after more than three years,” New York Post Sports shared via X.
Now, Rodriguez is single again.
After three years of spending together, they both mutually broke up. Cordeiro is a fitness instructor and is the mother of two girls, similar to Rodriguez. She was the one to officially announce their breakup.
“To clarify, Alex and I are currently taking some time apart, but there continues to be mutual love, care, and deep respect between us and for our families. We remain supportive of one another, and there is absolutely no animosity, drama, or negative story here.”
Rodriguez and Cordeiro were first linked in 2022, and they made their relationship official on Christmas.
Rodriguez posted his own photo on Instagram, and Cordeiro and her two daughters wished him, “From our hearts to yours, Merry Christmas.”

In these three years, Rodriguez and Cordeiro were always seen together.
A-Rod and Cordeiro were seen cheering for the Timberwolves in the NBA. The same scene occurred during the Minnesota Lynx’s games in WNBA.
“I’m also navigating a serious health matter involving a family member at this time, so my focus is understandably there.” Cordeiro added, “Alex and I continue to be very close, and out of respect for everyone involved, especially our daughters and loved ones, I’d kindly ask that any reporting reflects the compassion and privacy this situation deserves.”
Recently, the former World Series champion and his ex-wife, Cynthia Scurtis, celebrated their younger daughter, Ella’s, high school graduation. The full family attended the event, and Rodriguez posted about her special day on Instagram on Wednesday. In a few snaps there, the mother was also spotted.
The carousel also had the whole family, including their elder daughter Natasha, against the backdrop of baby blue-and-white University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill balloons. All smiles.
Scurtis’s current husband, Angel Nicolas, and the couple’s daughter, Camilla, also joined the celebration.
“Can’t believe you’re all grown up. Congratulations, Ella, I am so proud of you in every way. Can’t wait to see what you accomplish at UNC,” Rodriguez captioned his Instagram post.
There have been no reports of issues between Alex Rodriguez and his ex-wife sharing their daughters despite their separation. Yet, the timing of their reunion and the breakup sparks interest.
Previously, Rodriguez was linked up with names like Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Kate Hudson, and Cameron Diaz. Now, ending his journey with Cordeiro closes another chapter of Rodriguez’s colorful off-field life.
Meanwhile, Alex Rodriguez is still making news out of the Bombers.
Alex Rodriguez is still in the Yankees spotlight
The Yankees called up Anthony Volpe to replace injured Jose Caballero, and expectedly, Volpe committed fielding gaffes. The tides are all against him already. However, Rodriguez stood against it, like last year when fans were tearing Volpe apart.
“I think Volpe can be a very good major league shortstop… I’m not sure what’s being taught for a kid like Volpe, but I wish he had two weeks with the great Larry Bowa, and I’m telling you this kid can be an All-Star… Sometimes, you see these helicopter swings from Volpe with two strikes…,” Rodriguez said last year.
Now that Volpe is again making errors, A-Rod’s projection caught the spotlight.
Volpe finished last year with a league-leading 19 errors, and this year, he already misplayed on entering the field. In 8 games, he has already recorded 2 errors. We wonder if A-Rod’s projection would prove wrong this time.
Rodriguez also projected on Jasson Domínguez.
“Domínguez at center gives you youth, speed, and here’s a guy that’s gonna be a future All-Star.”
Domínguez batted .257 with 98 hits last year and above .300 in the spring. He might get into an All-Star game soon. And talking about Volpe, his overall stuff is decent this season.
Through 23 at-bats, his BA stands at .250, with a .794 OPS. If he can take care of the errors, the future is definitely bright for the 25-year-old.
