That Would Have Been Weird — A. Rod Says He's Not Seeing Ben Affleck's Ex Girlfriend

Apparently, Alex Rodriguez and Ben Affleck's ex-girlfriend Lindsay Shookus have just "been friends for 15 years." Okay. So were Ben and Jen. And look what's happening now? This romance is one of the more convoluted stories to emerge from this year, but fans are all over the reunion of this early aughts power couple. Bennifer swiftly reentered the limelight no less than one month after J. Lo split from A. Rod. And honestly? Fans ship this duo way more than they ever shipped J. Rod (?). However, things get messy with a breakup...

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez announced that they'd called off their engagement in April after spending more than four years together, claiming they work "better as friends." They issued a joint statement that read, "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." However, from here is where the story starts to get a little dicey. Lopez was seen shortly after with her former fiancé, Ben Affleck, and it's become pretty apparent that they're romantically involved again. Rodriguez, however, issued some pretty cryptic, petty messages over his social media that alluded to him struggling through the split. 

So to shake things up even further, Rodriguez was seen hanging out with Affleck's ex-girlfriend, SNL producer Lindsay Shookus, over the weekend in the Hamptons. What??? They were shown in a video from Page Six, sitting next to each other at a friend's pool party. However, Rodriguez's people quickly swooped in and denounced any rumors. "There is absolutely zero there. They've been friends for 15 years." Wellp. That's been said before...
