Us Weekly reports in its new issue that Madonna's seven-year marriage to Guy Ritchie is over – and Madge has been made hosting late-night visits from New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod) at her Central Park West apartment in New York City.

Despite this, media reports claim Madonna's husband, director Guy Ritchie, 39, arrived in New York City from London yesterday to patch things up.  Even Guy's mum is saying tosh and pish-posh to the break up rumors.

He has some competion with the alleged suitor to his wife: The $28-million-a-year Rodriguez, 32, has made numerous solo nighttime visits to Madonna, 49, at her spacious home and would sneak out "as late as midnight."

The source claims, "All the doormen are talking."

Us claims that Rodriguez was seen at Madonna's April 30 NYC concert; the singer sat in his seats at a Yankees game on June 22. Her son Rocco, 7, donned Yankees gear on June 25 while playing in Central Park.

Rodriguez has long been plagued by cheating rumors, despite his marriage and children.

Both Madonna and Ritchie have sought out pricey legal advice from competing law firms in London.

A-Rod's Yankees rep referred Us to he and Madonna's shared manager Guy Oseary for a comment.

He declined to make a statement.
