In a recent revelation, former NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers' parents have expressed their displeasure with remarks made by his ex-girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, regarding their family dynamics six years ago. The comments, which were made during an interview on SiriusXM's Radio Andy in 2018, have continued to be a source of irritation for Ed and Darla Rodgers.

Ed Rodgers, in a forthcoming book titled "OUT OF THE DARKNESS: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers" by Ian O'Connor, expressed his belief that Munn's remarks were fabricated to present a certain image. He stated, "She just made stuff up to make herself look good... We were going to all of his games; we were staying at his house. We had a great relationship."

During her conversation with Andy Cohen in 2018, Munn had addressed the complexities of Rodgers' relationship with his family. She claimed that Rodgers had not spoken to his parents and one brother for approximately eight months before they started dating. Additionally, she suggested that Rodgers should have an honest conversation with his loved ones.

However, sources have revealed that following a disappointing performance by Rodgers in Buffalo, Munn called his parents that night and expressed anger over their plans to see him again during a game in Tampa Bay before Christmas. This reportedly led to a strained relationship between Rodgers and his parents.

Rodgers, now 40 years old, is said to have stopped communicating with his parents in the winter of 2014. Despite this, Munn had encouraged him to have a candid conversation with his family during her time on "The Newsroom." She stated, "I spent the day in my trailer just encouraging him to have an honest conversation with your parents."

The actress, now married to comedian John Mulaney and a mother to their son, also highlighted the potential complications that can arise when family members' dreams are tied to an individual's success in sports or showbiz. She acknowledged that Rodgers' family members were deeply involved in sports, with his father being a sports chiropractor and his brother having a brief professional football career before transitioning to TV as an SEC analyst.

Ed Rodgers emphasized that their family was not driven by fame or seeking attention in the entertainment industry. He stated, "Nobody did that."

As Aaron Rodgers prepares for his second season with the New York Jets, his relationship with his parents remains a topic of interest. The recent revelations shed light on the complexities surrounding their familial dynamics and provide insight into the challenges faced by high-profile athletes in balancing personal relationships with their professional pursuits.
