Exploring the relationship between Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers

Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers had a whirlwind romance that began in early 2021 and culminated in a brief engagement before they split in early 2022.

On February 3, 2021, according to a report in People Magazine, sources confirmed that The Fault in Our Stars actress is dating the NFL player. Although it’s not clear when they came into a relationship, a few reports indicated that it started in 2020.

People Magazine reported that in September 2020, Rodgers gushed about his love life when he appeared on The Pat McAfee Show.

"I have just a new and increased love of life and I have made decisions and changes and habits that put me in a lot better headspace,"

He continued,

"There’s just a lot of things that have come together in my life over the last few months that have really been enjoyable and reminded me, given me perspective in life and in football to view things through the most positive lens I possibly can."

On February 6, 2021, Rodgers announced his engagement to Woodley while accepting the award for the 2020 NFL MVP. He mentioned his fiancée in his acceptance speech.

"It's an honor to win this award for the third time. 2020 was definitely a crazy year filled with lots of change and growth, some amazing memorable moments. 180 straight days of having my nose hair scraped, playing for very little fans or no stands the entire season. I got engaged.”

On February 23, 2021, the actress showed off her engagement ring to her fans when she made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

"Yes, we are engaged. We are engaged. But for us it's not new news, you know. So it's kind of funny. Everybody right now is freaking out over it and we're like, 'Yeah, we've been engaged for a while!'

On March 2021, the couple went for a trip to Arkansas, as per E! News. On April 2021, they went live on Instagram, where they answered 10 fan questions.

After staying together for a year, the couple eventually ended their relationship on February 16, 2022. A source informed People Magazine,

"It was an amicable split; it just wasn't working. They're very different people with busy careers and there were obstacles that they couldn't surmount. They will remain friendly; there's no bad blood and no drama. It just didn't work out for them."

After this, the couple were spotted together again in March and split up for the second time in April 2022.

While speaking to Outside magazine in 2024, the Three Women actress opened up about her feelings, stating that her relationship with Aaron Rodgers was “not right.”

Woodley’s rumored relationship with Bravo has come as a surprise for their fans. The actress' decision to move on from her previous romance with Aaron Rodgers was supported by many.
