Aaron Rodgers hints at 'crazy' past romances while praising wife

On "The Pat MacAfee Show" Wednesday, Aaron Rodgers said he met his wife Brittani in 2017 and knew he "wanted to be with her." He described her as "not a public person," adding that she told him she would "never live in Green Bay" and did not want to be "a player's wife." Rodgers said he had gotten into "crazy town" with partners who "called the paparazzi," leaked where he was living and "coerced" him into making social media posts.

He did not name anyone, though he has previously dated Danica Patrick and Shailene Woodley during the period he referenced. The timeline in the report notes he split from Olivia Munn in 2017 after three years together, dated Patrick from 2018 to 2020, and began seeing Woodley later in 2020.

In May 2025, Patrick said the relationship was "emotionally abusive," that it wore her "down to nothing," and added, "Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood." Rodgers and Woodley became engaged in 2021 and split in February 2022.
