NFL quarterback and two-time MVP player Aaron Rodgers is one of the most eligible bachelors in the world. During three years he dated a black-haired beautiful actress Olivia Munn, whom you know from her roles in the films “Along for the Ride”, “Magic Mike” and others.

But since 2018 the athlete is dating a race car driver Danica Patrick. At first two sport stars kept their affair in secret, but opened up about it after being caught by paparazzi. Two sweet hearts were having dinner in one of Scottsdale restaurants in the company of some friends.

In fact, Aaron’s fans can be sure, he made a good choice. His girlfriend is considered as the most successful woman in racing area. She inherited her passion to cars and fast drive from her father Terry, an amateur car racer and mechanic. He met Beverly Ann Flaten at a snowmobile event. They fell in love and soon got married. The couple brought up two kids – Danica and her sister Brooke.

Since the earliest years the girl joined car racing with her studying at Hononegah Community High School. She dropped out her studying to start career of a racer. She went to England and met her first professional achievement there – she occupied the 2^nd position in Formula Ford Festival. The talented driver was noticed, and she managed to sign her first deal – with Rahal Letterman Racing (co-owned by a popular TV host David Letterman). During several years the young racer participated in various competitions, but couldn’t boast with any loud wins.

But in 2005 things changed – she was the fourth at Indianapolis 500. The result may seem quite modest, but it’s not, if you take into consideration the fact that women quite rarely participated in Indy contest and no other female showed better results than Danica.

Later the beautiful and fearless car racer added lots of achievements in her resume – she won IndyCar race in 2008, set a record by the number of races brought to finish in a row and occupied the third position in Indianapolis 500 in 2009.

In March, 2018 the stellar racer turned 36. She participated in the Indianapolis 500 and then announced that it was the last time she took a wheel to take part in a race. The star decided to finish her career at that very place she started it.

The list of professional achievements of a slim tender woman (Danica weighs just 45 kg) is really limitless. But like a real female, she had never forgotten about personal life.

Jordan is not just Aaron’s younger brother, he is also his colleague. The man performed as a quarterback during his years in college and later professionally for the teams the Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins and some others. But Jordan played mostly offseason. He quit from sports in 2015 because of complications after sports hernia surgery.

After leaving career of American football player, Jordan moved his way on television. Currently he serves as a sports commentator at SEC Network.

There are different rumors about the conflict between brothers. At first Aaron ex-girlfriend Olivia Munn was named as the reason of a serious quarrel in Rodgers family. But she denied it in her interview and told that Aaron was estranged from his brother Jordan and parents during 8 months before their meeting.

The other version of quarterback family issues is his probable homosexual experience. In 2013 in press appeared an article about Aaron’s love affair with his male roommate. Although the athlete denied it, his parents and brother were really shocked by these rumors as they are very conservative and religious people. Probably, Aaron Rodgers parents and other family members still didn’t get used to his status of an internationally popular sports star.
