Shailene Woodley opens up about her life after breaking up with Aaron Rodgers.

In a interview with Porter, Woodley talks about how social media played a part in her relationship with the Green Bay Packers quarterback.  “It was the first time that I’d had a quote-unquote ‘famous’ relationship, and I watched [the] scrutiny, opinions, the desire for people to know my life and his life and our life – it just felt violating in a way that, before, it was fun.  I’m a very private person, and so I found that any time I posted anything, I instantly felt like I was sharing too much of who I am with people I didn’t necessarily trust,” she says.

Since the end of their relationship, Shailene threw herself into filming Three Women, a show based on Lisa Taddeo’s New York Times bestselling study of the sex lives of women in America.  “It was hard to film because I was going through the darkest, hardest time in my life; it was winter in New York, and my personal life was s****y, so it felt like a big pain bubble for eight months,” she recalled.  “I was so grateful that at least I could go to work and cry and process my emotions through my character.”   Woodley plays Gia, who travels across the U.S. to hear stories from other women in different relationship scenarios.

Woodley and Rodgers began dating during the pandemic.  And shortly after their relationship was public, they revealed they were engaged.  In February 2022 Yahoo Entertainment confirmed the couple had broken off their engagement.
