Aaron Rodgers is back in the headlines, and this time it has nothing to do with football. On Thursday’s episode of his“Not Just Football”podcast, the Steelers quarterback alleged that Shailene Woodley asked to sleep with another man just days after accepting his proposal in December 2020. He also claimed she had the ring off by March 2021, that reconciliation attempts later that year failed, and that by 2022 there was no relationship left to end.
Woodley has spoken about this chapter of her life before, calling the split the darkest and hardest time she’s ever been through and describing a feeling of being disconnected from herself. Her representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment, so as of now, only one side is telling the story on the record. Rodgers is married to Brittani, and Woodley has not publicly debuted a new relationship.
So now fans are split: is this honesty, closure, or content? And when does talking about an ex cross the line from processing to performing? Drop your take in the comments, we’re reading all of them.
