A-Rod Just Posted the Most Romantic Tribute to J.Lo on Their Engagement Anniversary
One year ago, on March 9, 2019, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez got engaged during a Bahamas getaway.
To celebrate the anniversary, Rodriguez posted a romantic Instagram tribute video stitching together some of his sweetest moments with Lopez, including footage from the original proposal.
The couple, who were first spotted together in February 2017, have yet to publicly announce a wedding date.
After a long and celebrated career playing 22 seasons in Major League Baseball in front of millions of sports fans, it may be hard to believe that anything can rattle Alex Rodriguez's nerves. But in an Instagram video, the 44-year-old revealed there's one thing that brings back those butterflies: his love and admiration for fiancé Jennifer Lopez.
"One year ago on a beach in the Bahamas…I was a nervous wreck, more nervous than my entire playing career," writes Rodriguez in the Instagram caption. "I got down on one knee and asked you a question…you said yes ❤️" he wrote in a post to commemorate the one year anniversary of him proposing to J.Lo.
Since then, Rodriguez makes it clear that he's been on an amazing journey with Lopez. "Jennifer, every moment with you is a blessing," he continued. "You are my best friend, my inspiration, an amazing mother, and a role model to all."
He ended by saying, "I am so lucky to be with you. Thank you for making my life better. I can’t wait to make more memories with you. I love you."
The video features moments from the original proposal, a close-up of the engagement ring, them walking the Golden Globes red carpet, the couple working out, and more.
Of course, such an emotional, romantic declaration called for a response from J.Lo herself, who reposted her fiancé's Instagram video, adding her own sweet caption. "Everyday with you is an exciting, beautiful adventure," she wrote. "The best is yet to come... and what a dream it all is and will always be... Te amo Amor 💗💍#1yearagothishappened."
Suffice it to say, on the one year anniversary of their engagement, the power couple seem more in love than ever.

The proposal wasn't the only time Rodriguez was a "nervous wreck." In an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the former Yankee revealed that J.Lo's 2020 Super Bowl halftime show also got him worked up, saying, "I've played in front of 50,000 people, playoffs, World Series. I was more nervous watching her than I was any game I ever played...I was going nuts."
Luckily for Rodriguez, both the 50-year-old singer's February performance with Shakira, as well as his March proposal, went off without a hitch, and he can ease his mind—until their wedding, that is. In the meantime, with over 600,000 views on A-Rod's video and over 1.5 million views on J.Lo's repost, it's clear the world is in love with their love.
We can't wait for more red carpet PDA, sweet notes, cute photos with their kids, and hilarious TikTok videos. Happy engagement anniversary!
