Shailene Woodley on Aaron Rodgers commitment

The actor confirmed the news in tonight’s episode of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (via E! News): “It’s kind of funny. Everyone’s freaking out about it and we thought, ‘Yes, we’ve been engaged for a while,” she said.

In the interview, Woodley called Rodgers “an amazing and wonderful human being” and said she “never thought I’d be engaged to someone who throws balls to live”: “I never thought when I was a little girl, ‘Yes, when I grow up, I’m going to marry someone who plays balls! Yes! But he’s really good at it. ”

“When I met him, I think my dog ​​pulled me aside and said, ‘If you don’t date this guy, I will disown you as my mom, because the three feet I run with you when you play a ball is nothing compared to marathon that I am able to run with him. ‘”

Woodley also explained that the meeting during the pandemic meant that she had not yet seen Rodgers play football in person: “I really didn’t grow up with sports, especially American sports. That was never really on my radar. When we first met, too, I knew that he was a football guy, but he didn’t know what kind of guy he was. And I’m still learning constantly. ”

Well, there’s always the next season. Congratulations to the happy couple!
