Aaron Rodgers's engagement was confirmed by his fiancee, Shailene Woodley In an interview on The Tonight Show.

Shailene Woodley revealed to Jimmy Fallon that Aaron Rodgers and her were engaged. She implied that this had been the case for a while and to them, it was “old news.”

When questioned about her knowledge of Football, she said that she didn’t really know how famous Aaron Rodgers was when they met. It seems she still doesn't understand because she refers to him as a "ball thrower".

To use her exact wording:

“I still have never been to a football game because we met during this wacky, wacky time and all the stadiums were closed… I’ve never seen one football game before. I just didn’t really grow up with sports, especially American sports… I knew he was a Football guy but not what kind of Football guy he was…”

Some fans have not received this well. Many view Rodgers as a football prodigy and have taken offense to his fiancee for not keeping up with his work.

Others are just happy for the two because marriage is a happy event.

Regardless of how their fans view it, the two are happy and in love. The couple are yet to announce when they plan to get married, but if the engagement has been old news, their wedding date will likely be coming soon.
