Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez: Engaged?!

For ages, fans have longed to know if a Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez wedding is on the way.


They’ve been official for more than a year and a half.


Now, fans believe that they’ve spotted J Lo sporting a massive diamind ring. Take a look, below:



The ring made its debut on Alex Rodriguez’s Instagram in a video set in the stands of a baseball stadium.


“Alright, here we are at Fenway,” Alex says.


“After four and a half… two to one, Dodgers!” he says.


Then he asks: “Jennifer, what’s the sign?”


She gestures, as you’re about to see, as if making a ruling on the game.


“Alright, there you have it,” he says. “Looks like a hit and run, back to you, Joe!”



Fans and followers were less interested in his pretend sports commentary than they were in that whopper of a diamond ring.


“Yoooooo did somebody get their ring?!” asked a fan.


That fan continued: “Forget the finals, tell me this is real!”


“That’s a big rock for Jenny from the block!” quipped another commenter.


“What is that bling @jlo,” another asked. “Are you love birds engaged?”


After more than a year and a half of officially dating, it would not be a surprise.



Now, some folks very wisely pointed out that this may have been bait or that these hopeful fans may have been jumping the gun.


After all, the ring appears to be on J Lo’s right hand — not, traditionally speaking, where one wears a ring.


But some very observant followers noticed that, in comparison to other phtoos, she and Alex’s positions seemed to be reversed.


In other words, that the video was mirrored.


“She’s actually on opposite side,” a commenter writes. “Watch her video, it’s on her left and she’s sitting to the right of him.”


If that comment is correct, she’s wearing a huge diamond ring on her left ring finger.

A pal of Alex made a very blunt comment.


The comment reads: “The sign I see is engagement!”


Those words were followed by three diamond emojis.


Curiously, Alex chose to respond.


“Hi Kimberly!” he wrote back. “Miss you guys!”


He followed his words with a thumbs up emoji.



Out of everything, Alex’s comment-without-commenting seems like the strongest indicator.


Sometimes, celebrities leak their own news in a way that gives them plausible deniability about it.


They drop hints and build up hype before they’re ready to make things official.


In the mean time, sometimes celebrities play pranks on their fans when those fans are hoping for something. 


It’s weird, we know.


Finally, sometimes people don’t even think about their jewelry or what it might signify. Yes, even public figures.



These two didn’t go public until March of 2017, but were believed to be dating before that.


It may be that they have now taken the next step and are simply engaged in plain sight.


No matter what fans may hope to hear, it is perfectly alright for them to simply enjoy their time as a couple.


Sometimes, you want to try things out before you make a big announcement. Just to be sure.
