Aaron Rodgers has been one of the shining stars in the NFL. Playing for the Green Bay Packers, Rodgers has established himself as a legend of the game. Winning the title back in 2011, the 40-year-old has swapped jerseys to wear the New York Jets’ colors. Unfortunately, things have not been the same for A-Rod recently. Plagued with injuries, Rodgers is looking like a shadow of his old self.
The criticism has reached a point to where the retirement of Rodgers is being seriously considered. However, looking back at his life, his recent struggles are not the only woes persisting. Rodgers had a strained relationship with his parents. Surprisingly, his ex-partner Olivia Munn was labeled as the culprit.
What Did Aaron Rodgers’ Parents Say About Olivia Munn?
Aaron Rodgers and Olivia Munn dated from 2014 to 2017. While their relationship lasted for only three years, the impact it had riled up the entire football community. It is no secret that the NFL star’s ratio with his parents is not the best. But there’s a shocking reason behind it that involves Olivia Munn. Or at least his parents claim so. As per the allegations from Ed and Darla Rodgers, the rift started back in 2014 after A-Rod had a bad NFL outing.
Speaking with author Ian O’Connor for his latest book, ‘OUT OF THE DARKNESS: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers’, his parents had some shocking allegations. According to Ed and Darla’s accounts, after the Buffalo Bills game in 2014, Olivia Munn shunned Rodgers’ parents. She wanted them to leave the NFL icon’s place and also asked his parents not to attend the succeeding game against the Buccaneers.
Things became strained between Ed, Darla, and Aaron when the athlete emailed them, saying, “Don’t attack the woman I love.” The situation had such an impact that Aaron and his parents would take nine years to have a full conversation. Bringing in further allegations about Munn, Ed Rodgers said that Aaron’s ex-girlfriend fabricated a lot of information.
He said to O’Connor, “She said the family was dysfunctional before she met Aaron, which is bull… We were going to all of his games; we were staying at his house. We had a great relationship. Nothing bad was going on.” Surprisingly, Rodgers had a completely different take on the entire fiasco. Snubbing his parents’ accusations, the NFL icon allegedly spoke out the truth.
