The Real Reason Alex Rodriguez Flew To See Jennifer Lopez On Set

Over the weekend of March 20, 2021, Alex Rodriguez visited Jennifer Lopez in the Dominican Republic, after having spent the previous weekend there.

A source close to the couple told People, “He flew back to the Dominican Republic this weekend so he can spend a few more days with Jennifer.” A-Rod shared golf photos on his Instagram account from his most recent visit. And the couple appears to be in good spirits. “They are really trying to figure things out,” another insider added of his prior trip. “It was a happy reunion.” J-Lo revealed to Allure in March 2021 that she and A-Rod had been to couples’ therapy. “We got to work on ourselves,” she explained. “I think it was really helpful for us in our relationship.”

“She’s working in the Dominican Republic and he’s in Miami so it’s tough seeing each other especially with quarantining and COVID,” a source told People, “but they want to try to stay together.” There are four more weeks of filming left. It looks like the couple will have to do long distance for at least another month.

The weekend prior, on his Instagram story, A-Rod tagged Lopez in the post, per TMZ, writing: “Onward. Upward.” For her part, J-Lo shared a TikTok video which appeared to troll the tabloids. She highlighted several headlines about her relationship to the tune of Saweetie’s “Pretty B*tch Freestyle.” She captioned the post “Sunday brunch playlist,” per People.
