Alex Rodriguez and Jaclyn Cordeiro Split After More Than Three Years
Alex Rodriguez and jaclyn cordeiro have broken up after more than three years together, with Cordeiro saying Thursday that they are taking some time apart. She framed the split as quiet and mutual, not a public fight.
“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,” Cordeiro said. She added that there is “absolutely no animosity, drama, or negative story here.”
December 2022 Relationship Reveal
Rodriguez first went public with Cordeiro in December 2022, when he shared a photo of the couple beside his two daughters, Natasha and Ella. That made this breakup more visible than a private split between two people who had largely kept the relationship framed around family, not publicity.
A source close to Rodriguez said the couple broke up about two months before Cordeiro made it public. That timing puts the end of the relationship well ahead of Thursday’s announcement and explains why the public update arrived after the split had already been in place.
Family Photos on Wednesday
Rodriguez and Cynthia Scurtis attended Ella’s high school graduation on Wednesday, and he posted about it on Instagram with a caption directed at his daughter. “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 ?,” he wrote.
The family posed for photos with Scurtis, her husband Angel Nicolas, and their daughter Camilla. That public appearance landed just one day before Cordeiro said she and Rodriguez were taking time apart, which keeps the emphasis on family ties even as the relationship itself has ended.
Cordeiro's Privacy Request
Cordeiro said she is navigating “a serious health matter involving a family member” and asked that reporting reflect “the compassion and privacy this situation deserves.” She also said she and Rodriguez “continue to be very close,” a line that makes the breakup feel less like a rupture than a pause shaped by family priorities and timing.
For readers, the practical update is simple: the relationship is over, the split happened weeks ago, and the public statement is meant to close the loop without turning it into a drama cycle. The remaining story is whether both sides keep the matter private, which is exactly what Cordeiro asked for.
