Although these romance rumors might have been a surprise, Alex Rodriguezis to step up and put them down.

On Tuesday, Nov. 16, Page Six Reported by A-Rod Kelly Killoren Bensimon, who is a real estate broker and former Real Housewives of New York City star, “have a cute and flirty text relationship.”

A rep for the Bravo alum echoed similar sentiments.

“They’ve been having a fun text relationship for the last couple of months,” the rep stated to CelebHomes News. He is charming, she thinks. She and he have been friends for a while, and they’ve talked about real estate.

However, Alex’s rep is telling a different story about the type of communication he and Kelly have had.

In fact, the retired MLB player’s rep denied that there’s anything romantic going on between the two, and explained their conversations are strictly about business.
