Alex Rodriguez thinks Taylor Swift has hit a home run with Travis Kelce.
In fact, the retired Yankees baseball player is the latest star to weigh in on the "Shake It Off" singer and Kansas City Chiefs tight end's much talked-about new romance.
"I love it, I think it's great," Alex exclusively told E! News' Chief Correspondent Keltie Knight of the Oct. 17 episode. "It brings a little bit more energy to the NFL. It's cool."
Having dated his own fair share of A-list celebrities during his decades-long career—from Cameron Diaz to Jennifer Lopez—the sports star knows what it's like having your relationship scrutinized in the media. Another way he can relate to Travis? Understanding the added pressure he must feel when Taylor is cheering him on from the stands.
"In high school, if there's a girl you have a crush on, you want to put on a good show," the 48-year-old explained. "We're all showmen."
As for his own dating life, Alex has found happiness with fitness and lifestyle coach Jaclyn Cordeiro. The couple went Instagram official with their relationship last December.
So, would he ever do a reality show about his home life with Jaclyn and his daughters Natasha, 18, and Ella, 15, whom he shares with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis?
"No," he said bluntly, "I played 15 years in New York, I gave the world enough of a reality show. I'm done with reality."
However, he would consider a documentary about his legendary life and career, à la David Beckham's recent Netflix hit.
"I've had an incredible career, I've had the good, the bad and the ugly," Alex noted. "So many great lessons, so many hardships and falls that I have no one to blame but myself. And the last five years is the happiest I've ever been and I feel so grateful."

Alex shared a sweet moment with then-2-year-old Natasha during training at Legends Field in Tampa, Fla.
In 2021, the retired athlete caption this photo of his blended family as part of a birthday tribute to Cynthia: "I’ve always said that when it comes to co-parenting, I’m extremely lucky because most people only have a 50-50 split of time with their kids. With us, it feels more like 100-100."
He added, "Here’s to you on your special day, Cynthia. Thank you for giving me the greatest two gifts any man could have."
Alex took his girls out to the mound while celebrating his 3,000th career hit in September 2015.

The trio set sail for a nighttime boat ride!
Alex told E! News in 2023 that he and his daughter have dinner together every night: "Let's just have some old school conversation."
Natasha was all smiles when she attended a red carpet party for her dad in May 2010.
