"Been a couple of months": Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers secretly got married—who's the mystery woman

Aaron Rodgers is married. He has always been one to keep his personal life under wraps, but his latest revelation has stunned NFL fans. During his first official appearance at the Pittsburgh Steelers' minicamp on Tuesday, the 41-year-old quarterback confirmed what many had been speculating for months—he’s a married man.

The veteran QB, who’s gearing up for his debut season with the Steelers in 2025, casually dropped the bombshell while speaking to reporters.“It’s a wedding ring,” Rodgers stated when asked about the band on his left hand. “It’s been a couple of months.”

The announcement came just days after eagle-eyed fans noticed the black band during his contract signing with the Steelers. Although photos from the event had sparked a frenzy online, Rodgers had remained silent—until now.

Yet, despite confirming his marital status, Rodgers kept the identity of his wife a mystery.

Back in April, during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers hinted at personal matters influencing his decision-making during the offseason. “People in my inner circle [were] battling difficult stuff,” he said, adding that he was in a “serious relationship” at the time. That led many to wonder if wedding bells were part of those private matters.

While Rodgers hasn’t confirmed it, many believe the mystery woman could be “Brittani”—a name he mentioned during a December 2024 episode of McAfee’s show. He had described her as someone special, noting that she spelled her name with an “I” and had no social media presence. When McAfee playfully prodded, Rodgers responded, “It’s a good feeling, boys. It is.”

The timing of the nuptials remains vague, though it’s believed the wedding took place between late December and early May.

Rodgers was seen wearing the ring at the Kentucky Derby on May 3, providing a public clue that many overlooked at the time. Yet, the event remained so discreet that even those close to Rodgers were caught off guard.Throughout his career, the four-time MVP has had his name linked to a string of high-profile women—from actress Olivia Munn and NASCAR star Danica Patrick to actress Shailene Woodley, to whom he was briefly engaged.

But with this quiet commitment, Rodgers seems intent on charting a different, more private path.As he prepares to lead the Steelers into a new era, all eyes will be on Rodgers—not just for his performance on the field, but for how he balances this new chapter of his personal life. The quarterback may be wearing one new ring now, but Pittsburgh fans are surely hoping he adds another by the end of the season—a Super Bowl ring.Also Read: Drake Maye reveals why Stefon Diggs is already winning hearts as an ‘awesome’ Patriots teammate
