Aaron Rodgers was an open book in his recent interview. The Green Bay Packers QB addressed his situation with his family, from whom he is estranged.
Rodgers joined the “Aubrey Marcus Podcast” and for what seemed like the first time, he did not give a standard interview when it comes to questions about his family.
Rodgers said that it’s possible that he’ll talk to his family again at some point.
“I do believe in healing and I believe in the possibility of reconciliation at some point,” Rodgers said (first transcribed by TMZ). “But, it’s a different journey for all of us, and to judge on the outside about what should be or what it should look like, or who’s wrong or who’s right is just a game I’ve never wanted to play and still don’t want to play.”
“The most important thing is for me is deep love and gratitude for them, and for the lessons I learned, and for the way I was raised, and hope for the future.”
“But, who knows what that future is gonna look like, when it’s gonna look like, when time is gonna come. But I have no bitterness in my heart. I have no resentment. I just have deep love and appreciation for the lessons that I learned, and the fact that if I hadn’t been raised that way — all the good and all the frustrating — there’s no way I’d be sitting here today.”
Like always, Rodgers still has not divulged the nature of his issues with his family.
Back in 2016, his brother, Jordan, said that Aaron’s relationship with the family was strained. The two brothers reportedly had a blowup that led to the family drama.
Hopefully, one day both sides can work things out.
