I’m sure you all know by now that Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez have the most adorable close-knit family. And if you don’t, then please come out from under your rock and appreciate these heartwarming photos. The newly engaged couple is doing a fabulous job at setting a precedent on how to have the most perfect blended family. The 2019 version of The Brady Bunch , if you will. J-Lo and A-Rod have combined their four children and are quickly becoming America’s new favorite blended fam! The love birds finally got engaged after two years of dating and apparently, their kids have been anxiously waiting for the proposal, according to Oprah Magazine. Rodriguez popped the question on March 9 in the Bahamas and according to his Instagram, she said yes! Both posted photos of the special day while the former New York Yankee held her hand, which showed off a massive diamond rock! Plus her nails were properly painted and it seemed as though there was even a bonfire going off in the background. How romantic! And while the diamond stunner was gaining the world’s attention, many were equally impressed by the way the superstars’ kids seem to get along. According to the couple, Rodriguez’s daughters and Lopez’s twins have become instant BFFs. A-Rod shares Natasha, 14 and Ella, 10, with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis and Lopez’s 10-year-old twins Max and Emme are from her third marriage to Marc Anthony. The 43-year-old dad has said, “We couldn’t have asked for anything better than the four of them getting along as they do.” And Lopez added that the kids are so excited for the wedding and will definitely play a major role in the upcoming ceremony. We have loved watching the mega-famous parents merge their cute little families together, ever since Alex proudly claimed his girlfriend to be the type of “role model” he wants for his daughters. It has only gotten better since then as the kids are regularly spotted together, like one big happy herd. The new family seems as though it was always meant to be. Every piece of the puzzle has been solved, they fit like a glove, they’re just really perfect, ok? For instance, both parents have made it a priority to give equal attention to their children as they do to themselves as a couple. For every high-quality captured moment of Lopez and Rodriguez out on their glamorous date nights, there are in return the more candid, casual shots of the entire clan. Just take a glance at either of their Instagram profiles and you will find lots of laughs, smiles and loving fun. There are snapshots of the engaged couple with their little foursome at carpool drop-offs, Christmas-tree decorating, and on family vacations. The pictures definitely come off as authentic and balanced, achieving total #FamGoals. And maybe there is even room for one more of their own one day? The joint families are so close, in fact, that one of Rodriguez’s posts from this past summer showed him and Lopez along with her ex-husband Anthony, all together at a dress recital for A-Rod’s daughters Natasha and Ella! That single post generated over 256,000 likes and countless supportive comments. Lopez even played make-up artist for the girls pre-performance that night and yes, our hearts were melting. The 43 and 49-year-old couple are successfully building something that is solid and united, something many people can learn from at this time. Lopez has said the “kids are so beautiful and open to love and new friends,” By honoring and paying attention to each individual, the family has been able to grow into a happy whole. According to recent data, as reported from Oprah Magazine , 16% of children are placed into a blended family with either a step-parent, or siblings or both. Psychologists stress the importance of placing children into an environment that encourages strong connections to both parents – regardless of biology. Lopez spoke on behalf of her relationship saying, “I was so loving to his kids, and he was so loving and accepting of mine.” And this is why the J-Rod party of six will be making it all the way to the finish line!
