How The A-Roid And K-Hud Romance Came To Be

Looks like Alex Rodriguez‘s real estate agent, Adam Modlin, doubles as a matchmaker.

Modlin, a long time friend of A-Rod’s, was the one who introduced him to Kate Hudson.

Thanks a lot, buddy!

A source reveals, “Adam has known Kate for a while, as well. He’s been showing her townhouses in the West Village for about a year now. He thought Alex and Kate would like one another, and sure enough, when they connected, it was a home run.”

Another insider adds that the two lovebirds met as early as November of last year. Revealing that A-Rod and Kate met “in Miami at the Fountainebleau hotel opening in November ’08 – Adam introduced them. The first five to 10 minutes of their conversation was about Adam. At the time, A-Rod was all about Madonna.”

Hudson and A-Rod were even spotted kissing and being all over each other recently at the 40/40 club, which A-Rod partly owns.

The source adds that “Alex was holding Kate’s hand the whole time and stealing kisses whenever he could. He is so into her and doesn’t even mind when his friends tease him about her.”

We’re betting this relationship will be over before summer ends!
