Additionally, she is the only woman to have finished in the top three of an Indy 500 race.
Not only is Patrick incredible at her sport, but she’s also aninspiration for womenthroughout the country.
In August 2017, Aaron Rodgers began his thirteenth season as the Green Bay Packers quarterback.
And it seems like Rodgers' desire to be less discreet was finally realized.
Unfortunately, their romance wouldn’t last.
However, the rumors didn’t remain rumors for long.
Aftera picture surfacedof the two out to dinner together, Patrick confirmed the gossip in six direct words.
“Yes, Aaron and I are dating,” she said to theAssociated Press.
Well, for one, Patrick was married at that time.
The couple met in Hospenthal’s physical therapy office where Patrick sought treatment for a hip injury.
This isn’t easy for either of us, but mutually it has come to this."
While this left Patrick open to dating, it wasn’t quite time for her and Aaron Rodgers.
Though soon after her divorce about three weeks she did start publicly dating again.
Richard Stenhouse Jr. and Patrick first became friends after racing one another in the Nationwide Series,FOX Sportsreported.
Stenhouse mentored Patrick as she was just getting her feet wet in the world of NASCAR.
With that respect also came the determination not to allow their relationship to interfere with racing.
I don’t anticipate that changing at all, or us having any issues on the track."
Stenhouse himself agreed, “It won’t affect how I race on the track.
I want to go out and win, I race everyone hard.”
In aninterview with Conan O’Brien, Munn told the story of when she met Rodgers.
“When I met him, I said, ‘So, what do you do?’
and he’s like, ‘Oh, I play football.’
I go, ‘Cool.
He’s like, ‘Oh, no, I play professional.'”
Munn divulged, “All I saw was that he was, like, really attractive.
I didn’t really care what he did.”
Despite the initial misunderstanding, the relationship continued to flourish.
Munn even had to dispel engagement rumors in aninterview with Stephen Colbert.
Colbert added, “The followup question is ‘What is he waiting for?’
Less than a month later came the confirmation of the split.
Perhaps it just took them each being single at the right time.
Regardless, Patrick appeared to have bounced back rather quickly post-breakup with Richard Stenhouse Jr. Patrick then confirmed the validity of the picture by addressing her relationship with Rodgers toThe Associated Press.
It seemed to be a long time coming so this news was especially exciting.
However, there was just one problem…
Packers and Bears?
Aaron Rodgers is, of course, a Green Bay Packer.
The problem was that Danica Patrick isn’t exactly a Packers fan.
At least she wasn’t at first.
Rich Eisen, onhis eponymous show, asked Patrick, “Are you a Bears fan?”
Patrick responded enthusiastically, “I am.”
So, I was born in Beloit, Wisconsin but we lived in South Beloit, Illinois.”
What about when she was dating Rodgers?
“I told him a long time ago I’d always root for him as a player.
Patrick went on to add, “Take out the word ‘probably.’
Now I’m going to cheer for the whole team.”
“I’d like to expand in the book world as well,” she added.
That’s not all.
Additionally, she’d enjoy traveling and attending concerts “on the side.”
Patrick’s retirement goals sound amazing.
But we wonder, with more time in her schedule, would Patrick want to settle down?
Is that part of her plan?
It certainly can’t be ruled out.
But that just wasn’t in the cards.
In July 2020,E!
Newsreported that Patrick and Rodgers had split up after two years of dating.
