Alex Rodriguez recently opened up about his relationship with Jennifer Lopez. Aside from giving her praises, and calling her the “most talented” person, he also had nothing but good words about their four-year romance.
Speaking to a recent episode of Martha Steward’s eponymous podcast, the former MLB star revealed that he had a “great time” during their relationship. He later added, “more importantly,” they always put their kids “front and center in everything we do.”
