Perhaps the breakup play was right in front of our eyes all along.
On Feb. 16, a source confirmed to E! News that Aaron Rodgers and Shailene Woodley had split one year after announcing their engagement. And while the notoriously private couple hasn't directly addressed their relationship status, one social media post is garnering a lot of color commentary.
"Extremely grateful for my life. 17 years worth of incredible memories and lifelong friendships forged because of this game," Aaron wrote in a Feb. 11 Instagram post reflecting on his past year. "I'm thankful for all the highs and lows this year and the growth opportunities on and off the field. Thank you for all the love and support."
On and off the field? Highs and lows? Not exactly the stuff of a winning strategy.
The post came after Aaron was awarded his fourth Associated Press MVP at the NFL Honors ceremony days before Super Bowl 2022.
And though Shailene didn't attend the ceremony, it wasn't exactly odd for Aaron to be without his teammate.
Back in July, the actress told The Hollywood Reporter that they both wanted to get to know each other before going public with their relationship, saying that they wanted to "live in our little bubble."
At the time, she also said they hadn't even started planning their nuptials. "Honestly, that's not even a conversation we've had with the world today," Shailene explained. "We haven't even talked about it."
Ultimately, fans speculated that there was trouble in paradise beginning in October when the Divergent star was spotted without her engagement ring.
As for where the two really stand today, social media may hold the clues once again. As of press time, the pair was still following each other proving they are each good sports when it comes to the game of love.
