Aaron Rodgers' love life has been examined with just as much attention as his football stats. The quarterback, who joined the Green Bay Packers in 2005 and assumed the role of starter quarterback in 2008, has had a variety of relationships with many A-listers. From his long-lived engagement with Shailene Woodley to his high-profile relationship with Olivia Munn, Aaron has quite a dating legacy.
Aaron is looking ahead to the future in 2023. He has already moved on in his love and professional life. After 18 seasons with the Packers, Aaron is on the verge of following Brett Favre's footsteps in the New York Jets.
Aaron (who turns 40 in December 2023) took a brief break to think about what he wanted, only to realize he still had a bit of gas in the tank. “I was interested in where [the Packers] would be mentally, according to him on the Mar. 15 episode of The Pat McAfee Show,” he explained.
'I made it clear my intention was to play for the New York Jets, and I've not been holding anything back,' he said.
Aaron's decision to join Gang Green came a few months after reports that he was dating Mallory Edens. Here's a look back at his romantic past.
Newton, Destiny
Aaron's first major relationship as a well-known athlete was with Destiny Newton, his childhood best friend and lover. After being "best friends for nine years" and meeting "at church camp," Destiny's mother told Radar Online nearly a decade ago: "They're very happy together," and the whole family loves him.
Jessica Szohr is a German entrepreneur.
Aaron was widely believed to have dated Jessica Szohr, 35, in the film "Race and Break," which ran from December 2013 through January 2014.
Olivia Munn has been a model for over a decade.
In a January 2017 interview with The New York Times, Aaron's most famous relationship was with Olivia Munn, a 40-year-old actress who dated for over three years, but not without much controversy.
Olivia was accused of being one of the reasons for this separation. While on Andy Cohen's SiriusXM radio program in May of 2018, she dismissed the claims. "I spent the day in my trailer just encouraging [Aaron] to, like, have an honest conversation with your parents," she said.
Olivia told TMZ Sports that she's relieved that Aaron had been reunited with his parents. It's long overdue.'
Danica Patrick is a professional photographer.
Aaron didn't take long to form a new romantic relationship following his engagement with Olivia. Danica Patrick, 38, revealed her intentions to Aaron in January 2018. The couple took part in the ESPYS together in 2012!
Aaron and Danica's friendship appeared to be spot on: they often shared happy couple photos and wished for romantic getaways together. One of Aaron's most thoughtful gestures was enticing Danica to go to Paris for her 37th birthday in March of 2019 (as you can see above) and by November 2019, they had purchased a $28 million Malibu house in cash, according to Variety. However, Danica's rep confirmed with HollywoodLife that they're "no longer together."
Shailene Woodley is a professional tennis player.
Aaron mentioned that he was "engaged" after receiving his third MVP award on the NFL Honors broadcast on February 6, but didn't name Shailene. Days later, People magazine said that the woman he had engaged was Shailene.
Aaron and Shailene had been traveling to Wisconsin for the NFL season prior to the announcement, according to E! News. “They continue to talk and communicate when they can.”
According to TMZ, the couple had called it a day after rumors that they'd broken up. Despite the breakup, the pair apparently tried to reconcile, according to a source close to Aaron.
In April, the pair split up again, this time for the good! According to an E! News source, they split up because "everything was on his terms, and nothing would change."
A ruffled girlfriend is in shock.
According to The New York Post, Aaron and Shailene have reportedly met Blu. While neither has confirmed their relationship, Blu did respond to messages that said her name was "Blu of the Earth" and that she was a "witch."
Mallory Edens is a well-known actress.
Aaron celebrated his 39th birthday with Mallory Edens at a Bucks game in the first month of 2023. TMZ confirmed that the two were a fixture.
