NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers made headlines Tuesday when he casually revealed he’s been married for several months. The unexpected announcement came during his first press conference with the Pittsburgh Steelers, after reporters noticed a ring on his left hand.
Rodgers confirmed the ring was indeed a wedding band and shared that the marriage took place “a couple of months” ago. He did not mention his partner by name, keeping details of the relationship private. However, fans may recall Rodgers had previously mentioned dating someone named Brittani during an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show late last year.
The newly signed Steelers quarterback explained that personal matters during the offseason influenced the timing of his contract decision. He emphasized wanting to be fully present and committed to his next chapter, both professionally and personally.
Rodgers, who joined Pittsburgh on a one-year deal worth over $13 million, says he feels grounded and energized by the fresh start—with a new team and a new marriage marking a significant turning point in his life.
