COUPLES'They Are Very Happy Together': Shailene Woodley Is Aaron Rodgers' Fiancée, Insiders Confirm
Actress Shailene Woodley has been confirmed to be football pro Aaron Rodgers’ fiancée, according to inside sources.
Only days after Rodgers and Woodley were linked, the Green Bay Packers quarterback announced that he had popped the question to an unnamed woman, and now sources say the bride-to-be is the Fault In Our Stars actress.
"They are very happy together," an insider spilled. "It's not surprising he proposed so fast. When you know, you know, right?"
"It’s an honor to win this award for the third time. 2020 was definitely a crazy year, filled with lots of change, growth, some amazing memorable moments. 180 straight days of having my nose hairs scraped. Playing for very little fans or no stands the entire season, I got engaged, and I played some of the best football of my career," Rodgers said in his NFL MVP acceptance speech, casually dropping the big news on Saturday, February 6.
The 37-year-old also thanked his future wife in the speech without naming her.
Meanwhile, the Divergent alum has been tight-lipped on her relationship.

Last week, E! News reported that the pair are in a "private and low key" romance.
"They have seen each other and been in touch," a source told the outlet. "They continue to talk and see each other when they can. They are both focused on their careers but they also make time for each other."
"Aaron and Shailene are dating!" another insider confirmed to Us Weekly. "They started off as friends, but things have turned romantic. The two are staying in contact while they are living away from each other. The relationship is long-distance for right now, but they are making it work."
The news comes less than a year after Rodgers split from longtime girlfriend Danica Patrick in July 2020. Woodley previously dated Ben Volavola in 2017 but did not feel ready for marriage and children at the time.
"I realized I was still at an age where I wasn't able to fully commit. I couldn't be available to him in the way that I wanted to be. I didn't fully love myself," the 29-year-old explained to Bustle in April 2020.
"I've made decisions and changes and habits that put me in a lot better headspace and there's just a lot of things that have come together in my life over the last few months that have really been enjoyable," Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee Show in September 2020. "That's why I'm having so much fun and it starts with love. And then surrounding yourself with people that you really enjoy."
PEOPLE was the first to confirm that Woodley is Rodgers’ fiancée.
