Aaron Rodgers is currently facing a rough patch in the NFL. The NFL icon is currently nursing an injury after a lack of form. With the New York Jets found wanting, retirement rumors are doing the rounds, making life miserable for the star QB. However, it is not only the matters inside the gridiron that are bothering Rodgers. Things are quite rocky in his personal space, too.
What Controversy Does Aaron Rodgers’ Book Fuel?
Author Ian O’Connor spent a significant amount of time and research to pen ‘Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers.’ While the book treaded some of the well-known stories of A-Rod’s life, it also has some extremely controversial aspects. One of the major controversies that shook the NFL realm was Aaron Rodgers’ strained relationship with his parents.
In his book, O’Connor spoke with the NFL quarterback’s parents, Ed and Darla Rodgers. Speaking about their not-so-smooth relationship with Aaron, his parents accused Olivia Munn, the NFL star’s ex-girlfriend, of being the reason behind the same. While Rodgers dated Munn from 2014 to 2017, she allegedly asked Ed and Darla Rodgers to leave Aaron’s house. She also asked the NFL star’s parents to refrain from attending any further games.
Reacting to the situation back then, Rodgers mailed his parents, stating, “Don’t attack the woman I love.” Such a back-and-forth had a significant impact on their relationship, and Rodgers and his parents apparently took nine years to have a proper conversation. Interestingly, Aaron Rodgers does not seem to align with the information he presents in his book.
What Did Aaron Rodgers Say About His Book?
Aaron Rodgers does not approve of his book. Speaking about the same with WFAN, A-Rod stated, “There’s stories in there that I’m sure are true, there’s stories that are exaggerated over time… I commend him for the time he spent on it, but it’s not a book I asked him to write for me.” Most importantly, the NFL star QB was seen actively disagreeing with the Olivia Munn narrative.
Coming in support of his ex-girlfriend, Rodgers mentioned that Munn had “nothing to do” about the quarrels he had with his parents. However, despite Rodgers’ disapproval of the book, the stories are not stopping anytime soon. Rodgers is currently in a mess, and fans will soon see how he tackles the hard times and emerges as a champion again.
