Aaron Rodgers Sparks Marriage Speculation by Stepping Out With Band on Wedding Finger

Did Aaron Rodgers quietly walk down the aisle?

The NFL quarterback, 41, sparked marriage rumors after stepping out with a dark colored band on his wedding ring finger at Louisville’s 2025 Barnstable Brown Gala in Kentucky on Friday, May 2.

Social media fans jumped online to share theories, with one user posting a video to X on Sunday, May 4, that captured Rodgers on the red carpet. “Looks like AR is officially a married man??? peep the ring on his left ring finger,” the fan captioned the post.

Us Weekly has reached out to a representative for Rodgers for comment.

The ring’s debut followed Rodgers’ recent romantic admission, with the free agent telling ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show during an April 17 video call that he was dating somebody and things were serious. “I’m in a different phase of my life,” Rodgers said at the time. “I’m 41 years old. I’m in a serious relationship. I have off-the-field stuff going on that requires my attention. I have personal commitments not knowing what my future was going to look like after last year that are important to me.”

In December 2024, Rodgers also revealed on The Pat McAfee Show that he had a girlfriend named “Brittani,” clarifying that it wasn’t Britney Spears but instead a “Brittani with an I.”

Prior to Brittani, Rodgers attracted headlines for his high-profile relationships, previously dating Olivia Munn and getting engaged to Shailene Woodley. (Rodgers and Woodley, 33, split in February 2022 after becoming engaged in February 2021.)

Of his relationship with Brittani, Rodgers added in December that she is not on social media, noting that while she did not watch McAfee’s show, she was a fan of the sports commentator. In response, McAfee thanked Brittani for her support, joking that the world had suddenly learned that Rodgers was “in love,” which drew Rodgers to confirm, “It’s a good feeling, boys.”

Rodgers’ relationship with Brittani was the first to be publicly addressed since his split from Woodley. After Rodgers and Woodley split, the Big Little Lies actress opened up about the emotional toll their breakup took on her.

“I haven’t shared much about my relationship with Aaron because it always makes me cry,” Woodley said during a December 2024 interview with Outside magazine. “It was not right. But it was beautiful.”

Woodley said later in the interview that she went through a “really awful, traumatic thing” in 2022, which seemingly overlapped with the end of the pair’s relationship. “I felt like I lost my soul, my self, my happiness, my joy,” she said of a dark six-month period she experienced that year. “I really understood depression and anxiety and complete soul detachment.”
