Aaron Rodgers has opened up about the end of his relationship with Shailene Woodley.
The former couple started dating in 2020 and became engaged soon after. They later ended their engagement in 2022.
Speaking on the Not Just Football podcast, Rodgers shared his account of what happened between them.
He said Woodley initially accepted his proposal. However, Rodgers claimed she later told him she no longer wanted to continue the relationship.
According to Rodgers, the engagement had already broken down months before reports of their split became public.
He also pushed back against past claims about the breakup. Rodgers said some public narratives about their relationship were inaccurate.
The NFL star added that he felt people had formed opinions without knowing the full story.
Woodley has previously spoken about the emotional impact of that period in her life.
In past interviews, she described the relationship as both meaningful and painful. She also said the experience affected her mental and emotional well-being.
However, Woodley has never publicly shared a detailed account of what caused the engagement to end.
Rodgers’ latest comments offer new insight into the breakup from his perspective.
Still, both sides have largely kept the details of their relationship private since parting ways.
