After a summer romance, Alex Rodriguez and Kathryne Padgett parted ways.

According to PEOPLE, the former New York Yankee is not dating anyone.

 

PEOPLE has learned that Kathryne Padgett and Alex Rodriguez are no longer together.

 

Their romance “simply ran its course,” a source told PEOPLE. However, the insider claims that there is no animosity between Rodriguez and Padgett because they both realised they are “better as friends.”

 

The couple’s separation was initially reported on by Page Six on Sunday. a couple’s close friend told the site, “They’re both single, but they’re also good pals. Although they split up, they remain quite close. All is well.”

 

When the two were sighted together at parties and nightclubs in Italy, Ibiza, Spain, and New York City throughout the summer, Padgett, 25, and the 47-year-old former New York Yankee maintained that they were “casually dating.”

 

In June, Padgett shared a picture of Rodriguez and her on a yacht with some friends. Italian nights, she captioned the picture. Later that month, after partying with Machine Gun Kelly following his sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden, they were photographed holding hands again in New York City.

 

The couple first made headlines in June, after Padgett posted the yacht photo, but her earlier Instagrams suggest she and Rodriguez had been seeing each other for months before their Italian date night. Padgett shared several images from his courtside seat at a Minnesota Timberwolves game back in March. The team has Rodriguez as a partial owner.

 

The relationship seemed to be getting more serious after Padgett started spending time with Rodriguez’s daughters in Italy, along with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis.

 

“All of the girls and Cynthia are with them. They are enjoying themselves a lot “At the time, a source told PEOPLE.

 

Natasha and Ella, two teenage kids, belong to Rodriguez and Scurtis. The ex-couple still gets along well and sees the girls quite a bit.

 

Rodriguez might have hinted at his new relationship status on Instagram over the weekend.

 

In a story on Instagram, he wrote, “Dinner for one…Yankees game.”
