Aaron Rodgers' love life: From Olivia Munn to Shailene Woodley, and more!
For 18 years of his NFL career, Aaron Rodgers was a stalwart player for the Green Bay Packers. The quarterback was traded to New York Jets earlier this year in April. As opposed to his previous low-key life in the Wisconsin-based Packers, Rodgers is apparently loving his new life in New York.
Rodgers was recently spotted bobbing at a Taylor Swift concert in the city. Born on December 2, 1983, in Chico, California, Rodgers had a stellar collegiate career at Butte College before getting drafted by the Packers in the 2005 NFL draft. Aaron certainly likes to keep his personal life away from the limelight but has had some high-profile romances over the years.
The Complete Timeline of Aaron Rodgers' Girlfriends Over the Years!
Aside from his ever-soaring career in NFL, Rodgers' exciting personal life is another catalyst of his popularity in the showbiz headlines. It is no secret that the quarterback boasts a stellar dating career as well, starting with the stunning actress Jessica Szohr, who he started dating in 2011.
Aaron and Szohr had to call it quit after a short dating bliss but the two gave romance another shot, in 2014 before splitting ways amicably. The Packers alum's one of the most famous flames has to be actress Olivia Munn, now married with a kid to John Mulaney.
Aaron and Munn were together from 2014 to 2017. While the duo didn't turn out to be an endgame, Munn helped Aaron break the ice between him and his family, who had been estranged from his life for months. The quarterback later blamed the intense media scrutiny and attention for their failed relationship.
"When you are living out a relationship in the public eye, it's definitely difficult. It has some extra constraints," Aaron shared. Following his split from Munn, the NFL star player was back in the game and was already sparking dating rumors. Rodgers seemingly had a fling with model Kelly Rohrbach before moving on to another notable romance with Danica Patrick.
Rodgers and race car driver Patrick made the perfect couple. Not only the duo shared relative jobs, and penchants for sports, but would also consistently document their sweet-turning-serious romance on social media. The twosome even purchased a home in Malibu, California, in late 2019.
But didn't thrive another year to celebrate more milestones. They revealed their breakup in July 2020. The pair's statement indicated that their relationship had just run its course and it was time for them to venture into a new one. And as insinuated, Patrick found love with Carter Comstock and Aaron with Shailene Woodley.
Aaron's high-profile relationship with actress Shailene Woodley, best known for her roles in The Descendants, The Fault in Our Stars, and Big Little Lies, is certainly the highlight of his dating career. The pair were first linked in early 2021. And before the new love birds could establish themselves as the next adorable couple, they send the media into a frenzy by announcing their engagement.
Rodgers and actress Woodley were engaged for a year!
The Packers alum made the announcement while accepting his 2020 MVP of the NFL award, in February 2021. Shailene later revealed that it wasn't a jumping-the-gun thing as they had been engaged for a while. "Everybody right now is freaking out over it, and we're like, 'Yeah, we've been engaged for a while."
Aaron's promising romance with The Descendants actress wasn't meant to last either. A few months after their engagement disclosure, the duo sparked headlines about the two not standing on the same grounds in politics and other things. The duo weathered several breakup rumors and bumps before finally calling off their engagement in early 2022.
Aaron Rodgers is Taken in 2023!
Love may not last forever and so does heartbreak. After his unfortunate split from Shailene last year, the Packers alum is back in his dating game. Aaron has been linked with a stunning new face, Mallory Edens, since earlier this year.
Considering the duo's romance is pretty new, both Aaron and Edens are hesitant about going official, but sources have confirmed that the two are indeed dating, although it is not that serious at the moment. Perfectly surmising the pair's situation, the insider said, "It's more than friends, but it's casual.
The source added, "He's not looking to rush into anything. It's low-key for now." The pair may seem like a newly-met couple but the connection goes way back. Mallory, who is a model, writer, and activist, has known Aaron for a while. Her father, billionaire businessman Wes Edens, is, in fact, a friend of Rodgers.
Aaron and Edens have made appearances in several games over the years, proving the duo's years-old acquaintance. But it was only recently that things turned romantic. The Jets quarterback recently joined his new flame on her 27th birthday and attendants reported that the love birds went heavy on PDAs.
