Following our exclusive report yesterday that Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, her ex-fiancé Alex Rodriguez has posted a cryptic quote on his Instagram story. The quote reads: “You either go one way or the other. You might as well be the one deciding the direction,” which he attributed to himself.

Fans are abuzz, speculating whether A-Rod’s post was a reflection of his own feelings about JLo’s split from Ben Affleck. Some suggest it might be a sign of vindication, while others believe it could signal sympathy for JLo.

To recap, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were one of Hollywood’s most glamorous couples during their relationship, which began in early 2017. They got engaged in 2019, but their relationship ended in April 2021. Shortly after their split, JLo rekindled her romance with Ben Affleck, whom she originally dated in the early 2000s.

A-Rod has previously spoken highly of JLo, stating she is the most talented person he has ever met and expressing no hard feelings following their breakup.

Now that JLo and Ben Affleck have announced their separation, rumors and speculation have been rampant. While some suggest Ben’s apparent unhappiness might be a contributing factor to the breakup, others point to JLo’s recent promotional activities, including a movie release, as potential distractions.

The couple, married for almost two years, is now facing a complicated divorce. Jennifer filed the paperwork without a lawyer, listing their separation date as April 26, 2024. There is no prenup, so their assets will be divided as community property. Ben’s successful production company, Artis Equity, and their Beverly Hills home are among the major assets in question.

The divorce proceedings could be messy, given the high stakes and the lack of a prenup. Despite the drama, both JLo and Ben have continued to maintain a public facade, with some sightings suggesting that they might still be trying to work things out.

As for Alex Rodriguez’s cryptic message, it remains to be seen whether it was a direct commentary on JLo’s situation or simply a general reflection on life’s decisions. What do you think? Let us know in the comments and don’t forget to follow for the latest updates.
