On this occasion of his ex-wife’s birthday, Rodriguez shared a series of pictures on Instagram, captioning it, “Today I am celebrating someone very special in my life.”

The post comprises 9 photos, including those of A-Rod with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis, and with their two children, daughters Natasha, 17, and Ella, 13.

Rodriguez expressed gratitude and “eternal respect and admiration” for Cynthia, for her presence in their daughters’ lives, and concluded with wishing her a happy birthday.

The former MLB star also credited his ex-wife for making the co-parenting process really easy on him and the kids, stating that their time with the kids felt more like a “100-100” split rather than a “50-50” split.

“Living in close proximity and working together despite busy schedules has allowed both of us to remain integral and active in the development of two young women whose future is limitless. And I have you to thank in large part for that,” he added.

Alex Rodriguez’s Career

Alex Rodriguez played as a shortstop in MLB for the better part of his 22-year long career. He was selected first overall in the 1993 draft and played for a number of franchises in MLB.

Across his playing career, he featured for the Seattle Mariners, the Texas Rangers, and the New York Yankees. His stellar record comprises two Gold Glove Awards and, to add to that, he is also a ten-time Silver Slugger Award winner.

Having featured as an All-Star 14 times, A-Rod is a big part of the MLB and is in the Hall of Fame Ballot for the first time in 2021.

Alex is one of the few players to effectively transition from a playing career to a new role as an investor and manager of a large investing and management corporation. Surely, A-Rod will be looking to score some home runs in his new field as well, as he continues his quest for excellence.
