Apart from constantly making the news for being one of the greatest racers in the world, former NASCAR driver, Danica Patrick has also been in the public eye because of her relationship with Aaron Rodgers.
Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers quarterback, and the race car driver, Danica Patrick began dating in 2018, but somewhere along the lines, things went down the drain and they broke up two years later. After their breakup, fans kept asking questions about the details involved in the split and what the next chapter of Danica Patrick’s life was going to be since she was retiring.
