Also, Alex’s ex-wife Cynthia’s net worth is estimated to be $10 million. She is an American teacher by profession. She has been getting $115,000 from Alex every month for child and spousal support. Alex, however, wants to reduce the amount as he is a retired athlete now.
Married, Wife
Alex was formerly in a married relationship with his wife, Cynthia Scurtis. Cynthia belonged to a prominent family of priests. She had met her future husband in the gym. On a repeated proposal by the baseball player, she had finally agreed to go on a date.
She got proposed by the athlete in 2002 on the occasion of her 30th birthday. The couple got married the same year in A-rod’s mansion in Texas. They share two children; Natasha Alexander(age 14) and Ella Alexander(age 10).
Sadly, after five years of marriage, the couple separated. Alex has not spoken about the breakup, but his ex-wife blamed her partner for having extramarital affairs. The couple finalized their divorce in September of 2008.
However, in May of 2019, they reunited during the middle school graduation of their daughter Natasha.
Since then, Cynthia has moved on and now has a daughter named Camilla with her new fiancee Angel Oscar.
