Yankee star Alex Rodriguez, wife end five-year marriage

According to a source, the couple have split after about three months of problems in their marriage.

"It's true. They've been having problems for about three months,” the New York Daily News quoted the source, as saying.

The news of divorce comes a day after widespread reports that Rodriguez and Madonna are an item and that the pop star is divorcing her British director hubby Guy Ritchie.

Rumours of a break-up were fuelled after both Madge and Ritchie were seen without their wedding rings. (ANI)
