Shailene Woodley Opened Up About How She Jumped in ‘Headfirst’ With Aaron Rodgers
Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers took the first leap in their relationship. They began dating last summer during the pandemic and announced their engagement in February this year. The surprising couple is still going strong, and Woodley believes they were destined to fall in love.
"Starting a relationship where you move in with someone right away — because it's a pandemic and you can't just get on a plane and go back and forth on the weekend — makes us learn about each other very quickly. learn. Taught something," Woodley told Shep. "We jumped in headfirst and worked quickly on some of the sticky bits."
Before dating Rodgers, the Divergent actor was spending a solitary quarantine. "I was alone with my dog and didn't see anyone for three months," she said. "It forced me to stay calm and calm."
Shailene Woodley also said of her relationship with Aaron Rodgers, "I have a vision that I would meet Aaron at any time, in any context, because I felt like we were meant to be together."
They first confirmed the news of their engagement during an appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon during the promotion of their film, The Mauritania. Woodley admitted that she never thought she'd marry a professional athlete and, as she gleefully put it, "somebody who throws the ball."
"So, it's kind of weird. Everyone's freaking out over it right now, and we're like, 'Yeah, we've been engaged for a while,'" Woodley explained. "She was, at first, just an amazing, incredible human being. But I never thought I'd hook up with someone who threw a ball to earn a living. Like, I never thought of myself as a little girl.. .'Yeah, when I'm older, I'll marry the ball thrower! Yes! But he's really good at it.'
