Aaron Rodgers’ romantic life has been marked by high-profile relationships, a broken engagement, and ultimately a secret marriage years in the making. His path to marital bliss was not straightforward, as he navigated Hollywood romances before rekindling a past relationship.
Early Relationships
Aaron Rodgers, now 42, began attracting celebrity-media attention in the late 2000s and early 2010s. His relationship with actress Jessica Szohr in 2011 was among his first notable connections. They had an on-and-off relationship, breaking up initially due to demanding schedules.
In 2014, they briefly reunited but eventually ended their relationship again. Despite the breakup, they remained on friendly terms, and Szohr even attended Rodgers’ birthday party in 2017.
Olivia Munn
Rodgers’ relationship with Olivia Munn began in 2014 after they met at the ACM Awards. Their involvement quickly became one of Rodgers’ most publicized romances. They faced challenges due to their busy schedules, but Munn expressed how they made it work, sharing their journey in a 2014 E! News interview.
Engagement rumors surfaced in 2016 when Munn appeared with a ruby ring, but they ended their relationship months later. Rodgers discussed the difficulties of maintaining a public relationship in an ESPN interview, noting added pressures and external opinions.
During their time together, Rodgers became estranged from his family, with fans blaming Munn. She clarified on the ‘Armchair Expert’ podcast in 2025 that family dynamics predated her involvement, a sentiment Rodgers echoed in Ian O’Connor’s biography.
Danica Patrick
A shift to the racing world occurred when Rodgers began dating Danica Patrick in January 2018. They had a long-term acquaintance before sparks flew. The relationship grew serious and visible, with Rodgers often speaking about their partnership and sharing how Patrick inspired him in healthy living.
Despite their connection, they ended their relationship in July 2020. In 2025, Patrick discussed their history on ‘The Sage Steele Show,’ claiming the relationship was emotionally abusive. Rodgers countered these claims on ‘Not Just Football with Cam Heyward,’ describing the relationship differently.
Shailene Woodley
Rodgers’ romance with Shailene Woodley was both brief and dramatic. By February 2021, he announced their engagement while accepting his NFL MVP award. Woodley confirmed she was his fiancée, but their engagement unraveled by 2022 amidst attempts at reconciliation.
Rodgers recounted their breakup on Heyward’s podcast, disputing claims from Woodley about the reasons for their split. He clarified timelines and recounted Woodley’s decision to move away from the relationship.
Marriage to Brittani
Ultimately, Rodgers married someone outside of the limelight. In June 2025, he announced he was married to Brittani, a woman he met years earlier but did not initially pursue due to her plans to leave for Europe.
Years later, after both were engaged to others, they reunited and quietly eloped. Rodgers has intentionally kept their relationship private, avoiding the media attention of past relationships. As of September 2026, Rodgers expressed hopes for fatherhood following his football career.
