New Details Into Aaron Rodgers Ghosting His Family Actually Make Aaron Look Like the Good Guy

Rich Davis: “A book is coming out about the decade Aaron Rodgers didn’t talk to his parents, and Rodgers’ parents blaming it on Olivia Munn, his ex-girlfriend, saying that she got in the middle of the family.”

Steve Covino: “The story is that she would talk about their sex life publicly. It wasn’t in great detail; it was just references to it. But they also had issues – because they were very religious – about how they shared a bed and would be staying at hotels together, and the family had an issue with that. Even though they’re entitled to having their beliefs and their views, that’s a little unrealistic for an NFL player in today’s world. You can’t share a room with his girlfriend?? The problem is on the parents.

What is Aaron Rodgers supposed to do in that situation? Find someone to appease his mom who has crazy expectations? They’re entitled to them, they’re nice, whatever, but it’s just not conducive and doesn’t fit into today’s world. Especially when you’re dating a Hollywood person who is a public figure and you’re a professional NFL player. Just chalk it up to generational differences, and it’s never ever easy. If it were up to MY mother and my mother’s standards, I’d be dating a woman who wore a bonnet every day. ‘HEY, I MET THIS WOMAN FROM THE PRARIE, MOM! ARE YOU HAPPY??’ Like, c’mon, be realistic. I’m not saying anyone is right or wrong and I think people need to respect each other and accept that there’s going to be generational differences, and there’s a gap between an Olivia Munn and Ed and Darla. ‘Ed and Darla’, I haven’t met a Darla since like 1920-something. The generational differences are just too much. The parents are at fault because they’re pointing fingers at Olivia and Aaron chose to not talk to his parents for ten years. I’m not trying to take sides here, but it seems to me that the parents were more difficult than Olivia.

I’m not talking smack about Rodgers’ parents, but who is the one exploiting their son with this story in the book right now? That doesn’t sound right to me. What kind of parents do that?

Rodgers didn’t talk to his family for ten years because they made it so difficult for him and his relationship. I’m not saying Olivia Munn wasn’t a pain in the a**, because she probably was, but I’m Team Olivia here, because for Rodgers to then not talk to his family for ten years means they were really overstepping and made things more difficult than they had to. It’s not like they’re wrong and she’s wrong, it’s just a generation difference and not bending and understanding.

What was Aaron Rodgers supposed to do? He’s a guy in Hollywood partying with cool people. He’s supposed to date someone who is going to vibe with his ultra-religious mom?? Give me a break. The parents’ values seem unrealistic here. In today’s world it’s not like that unfortunately. They didn’t even like them sleeping in the same bed. It’s 2024, even the Flintstones sleep in the same bed!”

Watch Steve Covino and Rich Davis of Fox Sports Radio’s ‘Covino and Rich’, guest-hosting on The Dan Patrick Show, discuss the new Ian O’Connor book that documents the deteriorating family life of Aaron Rodgers, and how new details into Rodgers’ ghosting of his entire family during his relationship with Hollywood actress Olivia Munn actually make more sense now.
