AARON RODGERS got married in the off season – but the Wags of his former team-mates were not even aware he had a partner.
The quarter-back confirmed he has tied the knot, although the exact identity of his wife remains a mystery.

In December 2024, he mentioned his girlfriend, Brittani, on Pat McAfee‘s show, but she seems to be an elusive character.
Even the Wags of his former New York Jets team-mates never met her – nor were they aware Rodgers even had a partner.
Jessie Vera-Tucker, whose husband is guard Alijah Vera-Tucker, told People, “I didn’t know of any partner. It literally came out of nowhere.
Defensive end Quinnen Williams’s wife Maranda agreed, saying, “I didn’t know he had a partner either, oh my gosh.
“Oh wow, I never saw anyone. Never met anyone.
Rodgers, 41, went back on McAfee’s show in April and confirmed his relationship was serious.
He said, “I’m in a different phase of my life.
“I’m 41 years old. I’m in a serious relationship.
“I have off-the-field stuff going on that requires my attention.”
After leaving the Jets Rodgers took a considerable amount of time to decide his next move, eventually landing at the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He cited “personal matters” as a reason for delaying his footballing decision.
Many believe Rodgers’ wedding is one of the personal matters he cited for not making an on-field decision.
Rodgers faces his former team in the first week of the new NFL season.
He said ahead of the Jets showdown, “A lot has changed over there, coaching staff-wise, player-wise.
“Obviously I have friendships over there, but it’s one game out of 17 and at five o’clock eastern on that Sunday it’s only going to be on to the next game. So that’s just the way it is.”
“I really embraced my time there and put as much as myself into it as I possibly could.
“And I really wanted to win there, I really did. And I have a lot of appreciation for the special moments.
“There weren’t a ton of them, but one of the coolest moments, unfortunately four plays later was all taken away, but running out on that field, it was a special night. … I put a lot into it and I’m sorry it didn’t work out, but I’m thankful for the couple special moments that were had.”
