Aaron Rodgers, the NFL veteran, has tried to mostly keep his relationships and girlfriends away from the media but has been unable to do so. The NFL veteran has been in the news in the last few weeks related to his free agency. With NFL Draft being just a few days away, his free agency has been concerning to fans. Aaron Rodgers recently appeared on the popular show, The Pat McAfee Show, and he shocked fans by speaking about his relationship.

Aaron Rodgers shocks fans as he speaks about being in a “serious relationship”, months after speaking about how he “despised” the attention on his personal life



In The Pat McAfee Show, former NFL player and host, Pat McAfee said, “Ever since the free agency started, in the last two months, there has been a lot of buzz. You know, you’re holding teams hostage with not giving them an answer…”
As Pat McAfee probed Aaron Rodgers about the reason behind delaying his decision for the upcoming season of the NFL, the NFL veteran nodded and then shocked fans with his revelation.
Aaron Rodgers said, “I'll set it all straight. From the jump, I'm in a different phase of my life, I'm 41 years old, I'm in a serious relationship…”
The NFL veteran added, “I have personal commitments I've made... and people in my inner circle battling difficult stuff. To make a commitment to a team is a big thing.”
While Aaron Rodgers did not name his girlfriend, it has been shocking since he has always tried to keep his dating life private.
Back in December 2024, when the documentary around Aaron Rodgers' life, Aaron Rodgers: Enigma, was released, the NFL veteran made a statement about privacy around his relationship.
The four time MVP said in the documentary, "I didn’t do myself any favors with some of the girls I dated [who] were in the public eye. I enjoyed my private life” and even went on to say he “despised” the attention his high profile relationships had gotten in the last few years.
