New York Yankees Alex Rodriguezs father-in-law tells Usmagazine.com that his family loves A-Rod and that the ballplayer has been good to his daughter, Cynthia.
"We love Alex, and we love our daughter, and it is what it is. If they are having marital problems, they're not reinventing the wheel. It happens. I hope they'll work it out," said John Scurtis when reached on Thursday.
The comments are in the wake of Usmagazine.com breaking that Alex, 32, was making late-night visits to Madonnas New York City apartment. On Wednesday, the New York Daily News and The New York Post reported the couple had split.
"He's been very good to my daughter, and he's been very good to us. I hope they work it out," the 68-year-old Miami resident said.
He declined to confirm the rumor that Cynthia, 34, had flown to Paris to be with Lenny Kravitz. "I don't know where Cynthia is and if I did, I probably wouldn't tell you," he said.
The New York Post reported that Cynthia was spotted outside of Kravitz's Paris home as late as Tuesday. Kravitz has denied a role in A-Rod's marriage drama.
Scurtis did confirm that his son-in-law studies Kabbalah, Madonnas faith. His interest in the religion was first reported by the New York Post
"He's gotten involved in Kabbalah, which isn't something we understand. We don't really get that. My family's Greek Orthodox," he said.

    Alex should have more respect for his wife and family and not adopt religions like Kabbalah that exclude them. But from Alex to Lenny? She must be desperate!

    Get a life. Who really cares? These people have too much money and too little sense. It's a slow moving train wreck-all of them.

    Spear M, before you post a comment like that, do your research A-Rod is not puertorrican, thank God!! and as a puertorrican woman i tell you one thing we are not all alike and if you ask my husband who happens to be a white man he will tell you that he will take a hispanic woman before a white woman anytime.

  • LOL Well, isn't this a mess. She's planting those knockers with Lenny Kravitz? LOL And A-rod? If that %@!*# is involved with Madonna, she'll crush his career the way she's destroyed her husband's so he can cater to her 24/7. Kabbalah, indeed.
