Jets WAGs Say They Didn’t See Aaron Rodgers’ Wife Brittani Last Season

by

Aaron Rodgers kept his family game plan from more than just fans.

It turned out that the star quarterback had spent two seasons with the New York Jets, but even his WAGs Maranda Williams and Jessie Vera-Tucker were taken aback when they learned he was married – to someone named Brittani, who hadn’t yet been publicly identified.

In a recent interview with People, published on August 26th, Jessie, who is married to guard Alijah Vera-Tucker, stated that she had no prior knowledge of any partner. She said this sudden development took her completely by surprise.

Maranda, the wife of defensive tackle Quinnen Williams, shared similar sentiments with Jesse, expressing, “Just like everyone else, I was unaware that he had a significant other, oh my goodness!

In fact, she noted, “I never saw anyone. Never met anyone.” 

A peek at Aaron’s time with the New York Jets emerges about two months following the NFL player, who joined the Pittsburgh Steelers in June, disclosing his recent marriage, which took place a few months back.

The individual, being 41 years old, had been involved in notable romantic encounters, such as those with Olivia Munn and Shailene Woodley. However, he desired to maintain his marriage away from media attention.

He stated during an interview on The Pat McAfee Show in June that for the past 20 years, his life was under public scrutiny due to a public relationship. He then asked about how that experience turned out for him.

He’s currently with someone who prefers privacy and shuns public attention, avoiding the limelight unlike many celebrities. Since he values his personal life as private, he comes across as peculiar or unusual.

Even though there’s a lot of curiosity about his personal matters, Aaron made it clear that he intends to keep them confidential.

He remarked, “It’s just so preposterous and awkward that the right to know about my personal life is being demanded.

Instead, Aaron is focusing on his MVP, whom he described as “the right one.”

In an interview with Sports Illustrated in June, he expressed that having a companion who loves you deeply and consistently, even when unseen, is an indescribable sense of comfort. He proudly referred to his wife as remarkably wonderful.

He went on saying, “I truly cherish her, and I’m incredibly thankful for her presence beside me in the final moments.” He added, “With such steadfast support and a solid foundation by my side at home, it feels as if I can accomplish anything.

For a closer look at Aaron’s relationship history, keep reading.

In the early stages of Aaron Rodgers’ romantic life, he was involved with Micala Drews, who was his high school sweetheart at Pleasant Valley High School in Chico, California. This detail is revealed in sports journalist Ian O’Connor’s 2024 book titled “Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers.” During their time at school, they shared a common interest in sports and often engaged in conditioning and weightlifting sessions together due to Micala being a volleyball player and Aaron playing football. In the book, Micala describes Aaron as a “funny slightly awkward kid,” yet acknowledges that he exhibited natural leadership qualities, not through words but through actions and humble confidence. Before becoming the leader of the Packers, Micala supported Aaron in his aspirations to play professionally, even predicting that people would one day refer to his home stadium as “Mister Rodgers’ Neighborhood.

Back in the days when Jessica Szohr was gracing our screens on Gossip Girl, there were whispers about her connection with Aaron – rumors that surfaced after we caught them together not just once, but twice, back in 2011 and early 2014. However, neither Jessica nor Aaron ever confirmed or denied these romantic speculations. When asked in 2011 if her support for the Green Bay Packers was due to Aaron, Jessica playfully replied to TopMob, “I’m rooting for the Packers because I’m from Green Bay!”

Fast forward to now, and Jessica is a blissful wife to hockey player Brad Richardson. She’s also gained the precious role of step-mother to Brad’s daughter Lexi, and together they welcomed their beautiful daughter Bowie into their family.

As a dedicated football enthusiast, you might be well-versed about Aaron’s Super Bowl ring, but have you heard about his engagement ring? According to the book “Out of the Darkness,” in 2011, Aaron got serious with Destiny Newton, a charming woman from Chico he had admired for years. The book even mentions they became engaged, but unfortunately, their relationship didn’t last and they parted ways in 2013.

In the following year, Aaron started dating actress Olivia Munn. They both presented at the 2014 ACM Awards, and their meeting story is quite amusing. As Olivia shared with Conan O’Brien in 2015, she initially didn’t recognize Aaron Rodgers as a professional football player. Intrigued by his good looks, she asked what he did for a living, to which he replied that he played football. Unfamiliar with the Packers’ roster, Olivia assumed he was a college player until he clarified he played professionally and was actually the quarterback. Their romance blossomed despite this initial misunderstanding, making them quite the celebrity couple.

Aaron spoke about his happiness in the relationship to ESPN Milwaukee, acknowledging the attention it attracted. There were also rumors of family drama involving Aaron’s brothers Jordan and Luke, as well as his parents Ed and Darla. Olivia was reportedly caught in the middle of the feud, with both parties sharing their versions of events. However, Aaron confirmed in his book “Out of the Darkness” that Olivia wasn’t responsible for any family issues, stating she had “nothing to do with all the years before.”

Unfortunately, the couple parted ways in 2017 after three years together. Since then, Olivia has married comedian John Mulaney and welcomed children Malcolm and Méi into her life.

Although Danica Patrick didn’t immediately start a relationship with Aaron after their encounter at the 2012 ESPY Awards, she still recalls the moment they met. In an interview on The Jenny McCarthy Show in 2018, she shared that they initially only exchanged emails, but occasionally communicated sporadically over the years. Eventually, they did exchange phone numbers and began dating following Aaron’s breakup with Munn, which they announced in early 2018. Danica affectionately referred to him as “Chicago” while she was “Green Bay.” However, after two years together, their relationship ended in 2020. Danica described this separation as one of the most difficult experiences in her life, especially since the relationship was emotionally abusive and had a significant impact on her well-being. TopMob News reached out to Aaron for comment but did not receive a response. Afterward, Danica dated Carter Comstock from 2021 to 2022, but she confirmed during a June 2025 episode of the Believe in the Good podcast that she is currently single.

Reflecting on my personal journey, I can honestly say that when I declared my engagement during the NFL Honors in February 2021, it wasn’t a small or insignificant revelation. In fact, just days before, TopMob News had exclusively disclosed that I was dating Shailene Woodley. And as she herself confessed on The Tonight Show later that month, we had been an item for quite some time.

She fondly recalled, “We got engaged a while ago…he’s, first off, just a wonderful, incredible human being…but I never thought I’d be engaged to somebody who threw balls for a living.” Over the ensuing year, our followers got glimpses into our relationship through shared photos of our vacations and dates, as well as insights we posted on social media. However, by 2022, things between us took a turn, and we parted ways.

Looking back in 2024, Shailene revealed to Outside magazine that the breakup left her feeling lost, depressed, and anxious. “I felt like I lost my soul, my self, my happiness, my joy,” she said. “I really understood depression and anxiety and, like, complete soul detachment.” She didn’t elaborate on the specifics, but mentioned that she had stayed in a “toxic situation” because she was empathizing with “someone else.”

Talking about our breakup was difficult for her. “I haven’t shared much about my relationship with Aaron because it always makes me cry,” she admitted. “It was not right. But it was beautiful.”

However, by the spring of 2025, Shailene had found solace in a new romance with Lucas Bravo from Emily in Paris. Lucas eventually confirmed their relationship.

There was curiosity among social media users whether Aaron might have been attempting to express romantic interest towards Mallory Edens, the daughter of Milwaukee Bucks owner Wes Edens, following an incident in April 2022 where he and his Packers teammate Randall Cobb were spotted courtside with her at a game.

Aaron had previously acquired a stake in the Bucks back in 2018, and there had been previous instances of him and Mallory sitting next to each other at games. However, their attendance together at an Ed Sheeran concert in New Jersey in June 2023 further sparked speculation about their relationship status.

Nonetheless, neither Aaron nor Mallory confirmed or denied the rumors of a potential romance.

2024 saw Aaron publicly sharing that he had returned to dating and found himself smitten with a lady named Brittani. In an episode of The Pat McAfee Show in December, he made it clear that this wasn’t Britney Spears, but rather Brittani with an ‘i’. Despite his girlfriend not having a social media presence, he did admit to being in love, expressing to the show hosts, “It’s quite enjoyable, gentlemen.

In April 2025, Aaron revealed to Pat McAfee that he was in a deep-seated relationship, which later turned into a marriage. His wedding rumors started swirling after pictures of him wearing a ring surfaced on his wedding finger at the Kentucky Derby in May 2025 and during his contract signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers in June 2025.

During his first press conference with the team, he acknowledged the ring was indeed a wedding band, hinting that he had been married for a couple of months, although he did not confirm if his wife’s name is Brittani with an “i.”

Perhaps Aaron’s reluctance to share details about his personal life stems from his discomfort with public attention. In his 2024 Netflix docuseries, “Aaron Rodgers: Enigma,” he admitted that dating high-profile women in the public eye didn’t do him any favors and initially disliked the increased attention.

“I didn’t help myself with some of the girls I dated after that who were in the limelight,” he said. And when it came to all the attention, “I definitely hated it at first-really despised it,” he added. “I valued my private life, enjoyed being able to go places. But from Super Bowl MVP, MVP, State Farm commercials, that got a little more challenging.
