It seems like JLo, 51, is ready to fully move on from her past relationship with A-Rod, 43, as she is looking for a new home in Los Angeles.
A source exclusively told The Sun: “Before ARod, JLo spent more time in LA than in Miami, but while she was with him, Miami became their family base.
“[Alex’s] ex is there and he is there a lot with his daughters – and JLo has strong roots in Miami as well.”
The famous former baseball player shares daughters Natasha, 16, and Ella, 13, with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis.
The insider continued: “They were there all the time and [Jennifer] was living there most of the time with him and his girls, but now that they’ve ended their engagement, she is looking towards LA.”
The source further revealed that “right now, Miami reminds her of HIM and for work, LA has always been more convenient.”
According to the insider, when the Hustlers star lived in Miami, “she was always flying back and forth to meetings and photoshoots, rehearsals and for filming so obviously LA makes a lot of sense.”
The source also addressed those pictures of Jennifer that TMZ published earlier this month, where she toured different Los Angeles schools to enroll her 13-year-old twins.
“She has been looking at schools for Max and Emme and is looking for a new house near Ben. NOT WITH HIM. It’s way too soon and the breakup from ARod has been super hard on the kids. Much harder than it’s been on Jen,” the source said.
JLo shares Max and Emme with ex-husband, Marc Anthony; while Ben shares Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel with ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
However, “she knows her kids need time to get used to it and they need some stability.
“Right now is a good time to check out schools and buy a house so that they can start with the other kids in their class in September – that’s the plan, to be moved in and settled before the school year begins.”
The Sun has reached out Jennifer’s rep for comment.
The pair, who met on the set of Gigli in 2001, postponed their 2003 wedding plans and announced they were splitting a few months later.
However, according to some industry insiders, they never fell out of love and are “picking up right where they left off.”
Ben’s dad scoffed at the notion that the A-lister has secretly been carrying a torch all along for the thrice-married singer.
