It’s the start of something new for  Alex Rodriguez . Over a month after A-Rod and  Jennifer Lopez  split, the former MLB star, 45, posted on his Instagram Story about entering a “new beginning” in his life. “I am about to step into a new beginning in my life. Anything that doesn’t serve me is clearing out of my life,” he wrote on Sunday (via E! News).

“New energy is emerging. New levels are unlocking for me mentally, physically, and spiritually,” Alex continued. “I am remaining patient and know that this new phase of my life is coming.”

J-Rod, who got engaged in 2019, officially parted ways in mid-April. In a joint statement to  Today , the pair said: “We have realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so. We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects. We wish the best for each other and one another’s children. Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support.”

Jennifer has been spending time with her ex-fiancé  Ben Affleck  since splitting from A-Rod. On Sunday, Bennifer was spotted in Miami together. J.Lo was photographed smiling while walking down a flight of stairs with Ben trailing behind.

A source told E! News, “Ben took a red eye to Miami and went straight to J.Lo’s new house in the early morning hours. She looked very happy to see him and they walked around the property together so she could show him around.”

Ben and Jennifer enjoyed a getaway to Montana earlier this month. “They have kept in touch every day since their Montana trip,” a source previously told People magazine. “Jennifer is doing well,” the source added. “She seems very happy and excited about her future.”
