Earlier this week, Shailene Woodley posted on Instagram about how the month of June was a major one for her “head and heart.” It was back in April when it was reported that she and NFL star Aaron Rodgers had broken off their engagement after more than a year together.
In the caption, Woodley wrote, “to the month of June: putting macro whack world events aside for a minute, on a micro level, you nurtured this woman’s head + heart.”
She continued, “you gave me oxygen in the form of friends, babies, trees, magic, DANCING, animals, salt, sun, deep conversations, six packs from laughing, availability in the form of tears, PLAY, sunrises, hallway tag, goofiness, spontaneity, pita bread (so much pita!), hellos and goodbyes. a beautiful wise italian in new york told me this would be the best month ever, and he was not wrong.”
The former couple first sparked dating rumors in July 2020. The Green Bay Packers QB would soon announce that he was engaged.
“I got engaged and played some of the best football of my career,” he shared while accepting an award for the 2020 NFL football season.

At the time, Woodley reflected on the romance which started amid the COVID-19 pandemic. “It’s kind of funny. Everybody right now is freaking out over it and we’re like, ‘Yeah, we’ve been engaged for a while,’” the California native clarified during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that same month. “He’s, first off, just a wonderful, incredible human being. But I never thought I’d be engaged with somebody who threw balls for a living.”
Despite them breaking up, the two of them would be spotted out together several times.. It looks like they chose to keep their friendship intact.
The Green Bay Packers quarterback praised the time he got to spend with Woodley. “Thanks for letting me chase after you the first couple months after we met, and finally letting me catch up to you and be a part of your life,” he wrote via Instagram. “Thanks for always having my back, for the incredible kindness you show me and everyone you meet, and for showing me what unconditional love looks like, I love you and am grateful for you.”
