A wild claim suggests Jennifer Lopez may rebound from her "imminent" divorce from Ben Affleck with ex-fiancé Alex Rodriguez, RadarOnline.com has learned.
While the potential reunion may seem shocking to most, sources close to J Lo aren't as surprised — and claim the former New York Yankees star "was always her best match."
JLo's friends say A-Rod was 'always her best match.'
JLo and Rodriguez, who's affectionately known to fans as "A-Rod," were together for four years before they split in 2021.
"He was always her best match," a friend explained, according to the Daily Mail.
At the time of their break up, reports alleged that infidelity was a contributing factor in the couple calling off their engagement.
The couple called off their engagement in 2021.
"I don't think cheating is a dealbreaker for her anymore," the pal noted. "I think she won't announce the split until she has someone else lined up in any case."
"[A-Rod and JLo] were matched in terms of the lifestyle, the looks, the grooming, the private jets and all the rest of it. They were great together; they were a good match," the friend continued. "We would not be surprised if they got together again. It was a long-term relationship and their families got really close, they were blended."
RadarOnline.com has reached out for comment.
Lopez announced last month that she was canceling her scheduled This is Me...Live summer tour and "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends."
The baseball star and Jenny From the Block singer first met at a restaurant back in 2017. The pair later debuted their romance at the Met Gala in May of that same year.
Two years later, A-Rod popped the question with a massive $4 million ring in 2019 — which even caught the attention of former President Barack Obama, who sent the pair a handwritten note celebrating their engagement.
