Aaron Rodgers Claims Shailene Woodley Asked to Sleep With Someone Else Days After Their Engagement

Aaron Rodgers isn’t holding back about his past engagement to actress Shailene Woodley. On Thursday’s episode of his“Not Just Football”podcast, the NFL quarterback claimed Woodley asked to sleep with another man just days after accepting his proposal in December 2020. He said she had the ring off by March 2021, and while the two attempted to reconcile later that year, he says there was nothing left to salvage by 2022. Woodley’s representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Woodley has spoken about the relationship before, describing their split as the darkest, hardest time of her life and saying she felt disconnected from her own soul. Rodgers’new comments seem to push back on that account, laying the blame for the breakup at her feet. He’s since married a woman named Brittani, while Woodley has kept her romantic life out of the spotlight.

So here’s the question worth chewing on: after you’ve both moved on, when is it time to stop telling the story? Most of us know the temptation to relitigate an old heartbreak, and most of us also know it never quite gives us the closure we’re chasing. What do you think? Should Rodgers have said all this, or is some history better left in the past? Sound off in the comments.
