In the week following Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez's split announcement, reports were limited on why Rodriguez's efforts to repair their relationship issues failed. But a clearer picture is emerging of why Lopez ended their romance, courtesy of People's new report dedicated to the breakup.

Multiple sources told the outlet that Lopez didn't break up with Rodriguez because he cheated on her. But they did say that his reputation as a cheater was fatal to their relationship. She could no longer fully “trust” him.

As a music source put it, “whether or not he has cheated doesn't matter. She won't tolerate the fear of it in the air between them.”

Lopez was the one who initiated the split: “She insisted on it,” a friend of the singer told the outlet. “There are too many issues that are unresolved.”

“She has been pretty miserable. and didn't think it was in her best interests to stay with Alex,” the friend added.

Lopez is doing okay now though, the friend told the outlet: “Jennifer has been in these difficult situations before. She is not one to sit around and cry. Her kids make her the happiest. She is doing well.”

People's report comes after E! reported last Thursday that Lopez's lack of trust in Rodriguez was ultimately what did their four-year romance in. Rodriguez knew she was going to end it because she “has not been happy for awhile now,” a source told the outlet.

“Once her trust is broken, there's no turning around,” the source continued. “She feels good about her decision because she knows A-Rod will still be in her life, just in a different capacity.”

A second source close to Lopez told E! that Rodriguez hadn't fully given up on their romance the way J.Lo had then. “He is respecting her wishes right now, but has high hopes they will get back together,” the source said. “He's doing anything in his power to make J.Lo happy.”
