Aaron Rodgers’ rumored girlfriend, Mallory Edens, has revealed having gone through a near-death experience.
Taking to Instagram on Friday, Mallory, who is the daughter of Milwaukee Bucks owner Wes Edens, recalled an ordeal from 10 years ago in which she fell off her horse and suffered a brain injury as she fractured her skull in four places.
“Today is a big life milestone for me,” she wrote.
“10 years ago today, I fell off my horse, got kicked in the head on the way down, and woke up in the ICU with four skull fractures and a traumatic brain injury that changed my life.
“I’ve spent a lot of time lately thinking about the kid who woke up in that hospital bed, terrified she would never run a lap around a track or read a book again. How scary it was to lose everything I thought I knew about myself at that age in the blink of an eye.
“The 19-year-old me, who found herself curled in the fetal position on the floor of a neurologist’s waiting room a few years later, in the middle of an episode of trigeminal neuralgia and in the kind of physical pain that escapes language. What I was learning about myself then, even though I didn’t know it at the time.”
Mallory was linked to the Jets quarterback in January, with Rodgers having split from former GF Blu of Earth late last year. Neither of them has confirmed being in a relationship but they have been spotted out together, with cameras also picking them up at Bucks games a few times.
Meanwhile, Rodgers remains sidelined after rupturing his Achilles during his first game with the Jets. He is hoping for a miraculous return this season after undergoing an innovative operation that could significantly shorten his recovery time.
