NFL star Aaron Rodgers has shared candid details about his former two-year relationship with Danica Patrick. Speaking on the Not Just Football podcast, Rodgers stated that the relationship suffered from a lack of intimacy and that Patrick was "not fun to be around." He explained that Patrick was depressed after retiring, and while he initially stayed to be supportive, the relationship deteriorated.
Rodgers recounted an incident where he declined Patrick's suggestion to buy a house together in Malibu. He also addressed Patrick's recent public claims, including an alleged "trail of blood," which Rodgers refuted, stating "That is not what happened by any means." He felt compelled to speak out against what he described as narratives that misrepresent their relationship.
Further elaborating on the end of their relationship, Rodgers mentioned they had undergone couples therapy. He also revealed that he had met his now-wife, Brittani, in 2017, prior to his relationship with Patrick. Rodgers expressed regret about not pursuing Brittani more seriously at that time, leading to him being "emotionally unavailable" during his time with Patrick.
