Aaron Rodgers and Danica Patrick have reportedly called it quits after two years together.

On Thursday, TMZ noticed Patrick, 38, was no longer following Rodgers, 36, on Instagram.
It appears that speculation was correct, as Patrick’s reps confirmed the news to E!
The news comes as a surprise considering Patrick and Rodgers moved in to a $28 million mansion together in December, according to Variety.
Rodgers and Patrick go separate ways
Green Bay Packers quarterback Rodgers will now continue to prep for the 2020 NFL season.
Players are expected to report to camp in July.
Patrick retired from racing in 2018, appearing as a racing analyst on NBC, and started a weekly podcast called “Pretty Intense” in 2019.
In November she spoke about the idea of getting engaged.
“You know what, that’s one of those things, you can’t be attached to something going a certain way because if you really want something to happen, there’s that equal energy of being afraid that it’s not going to happen,” she said during an interview on Jenny McCarthy’s SiriusXM radio show.
“So you just have to let it go and be like, ‘Well, am I having fun today? Yup.’ Then life’s good’.”
Patrick previously dated fellow pro driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr, while Rodgers was with actress Olivia Munn for three years.
Fans and commentators reacted to Rodgers and Patrick’s split on social media.

So, @AaronRodgers12 broke up with @DanicaPatrick, although that's very sad, maybe we can channel that sadness for winning games. #GoPackers

Shocked by the Aaron Rodgers Danica Patrick news. No way possible it had anything to do with settling down and starting a family.
