Jennifer Lopez says Alex Rodriguez is for keeps as she heads towards fourth marriage

Jennifer Lopez may be on her way to marrying her fourth husband but she insists this one is for keeps.

The 50-year-old singer and actress, who has been tipped for Oscars success for Hustlers, has said that her fiancée Alex Rodriguez, 44, is the one.

Speaking about plans for wedding number four, J-Lo said that she now understands that marriage "takes a lot more than just falling in love and sharing a home".

The mum-of-two said that she and the former baseball player, who she began dating in 2017, had a "connection from the very beginning", and was "surprised" when he proposed.

“Both of us show up for each other and that’s a big deal in a relationship, ­especially when you are both strong people who have two big lives.

“That means him ­coming to concerts, me going to his ball game, all that stuff.”

It will be the Cuban star's fourth attempt at wedded bliss after tying the knot with Ojani Noa, Cris Judd and Marc Anthony.
