New York – Actress Cameron Diaz and New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez have
broken up again so that they can both focus on their careers. The 39-year-old star of
films such as “There’s Something About Mary” and “Bad Teacher,” is “very busy with
her career,” while Rodriguez, 36, has “had injuries and wants to focus on his game.”
“They’re dedicated professionals,” said the same person, adding that the actress and
ballplayer are “still very friendly and like each other.”The couple have already gone
through several breakups during their relationship, the last one in June, after which
they reconciled. Rodriguez, who divorced his wife Cynthia in 2008 and who then began
a relationship with singer Madonna, began going out with Diaz a year ago, when he
decided to celebrate his feat of becoming the youngest ballplayer in history to hit 600
homers by taking a helicopter ride over New York accompanied by her and her friend
Gwyneth Paltrow. They kept their relationship secret for months, but they were seen
together at the NFL Super Bowl in Dallas and then on vacation in Mexico, as well as on
several other occasions in New York.
