In the winter of 2011, following their trip to Spain, Machado asked Yonder for permission to date his sister.
"I told him, 'Look, as long as you respect her and be there for her,' " Yonder told USA Today in 2013. "And whatever happens, just know if something happens between you guys we're still friends. We were friends before, and we'll be friends afterward."

"I do want to take this opportunity and thank my FAMILY - Mom, Papi, Sis, Manny, Pete. You guys are what made me," he wrote in the caption. "I love you guys! I'll try my best to keep it short and sweet, but those who know me know I can get emotional with this stuff. I can't thank all you guys enough."
In April 2021, the former first baseman joined the MLB Network's roster of on-air personalities as an analyst.

Despite Machado's well-known work, the couple isn't a big fan of nightlife. Machado said to USA Today that he and Alonso liked to live nearby while they were still residing in Miami.
"People think, 'Oh, you're a big-leaguer, you live in Miami, you can probably go to any club you want,' " Machado said. "The truth is that we are boring. We don't really let people in. We've got a very close circle, and that's it. The baseball star continued, "For us, it's all about family."
