Aaron Rodgers’ relationship with his brother, Jordan, and his family in general has been a hot topic of conversation on this season of ABC’s “The Bachelorette.”
One of the contestants vying for the love of bachelorette JoJo is Jordan Rodgers, Aaron’s younger brother. Jordan was a quarterback at Butte College like Aaron and then moved on to Vanderbilt. Though Jordan tried to make it in the NFL, his career went nowhere and now he’s on a reality TV show.
On a recent episode of the show, Jordan discussed the strained relationship he has with Aaron. The strained relationship received more attention during a trip to Jordan’s hometown of Chico, Calif. with JoJo.
Jordan and oldest brother Luke both expressed some reluctance to talk about Aaron, and you could tell matters were strained. At one point the show even showed an old family photo of the brothers with father Ed. One of the faces appeared to be blurred out, leading to speculation that the show did not receive permission to show Aaron’s face in the photo.
I posed this as a question for a few reasons. One, I can’t tell 100 percent if that is Aaron’s face blurred out. Two, I’m not 100 percent sure that the photo was blurred out by the show and not just tainted/blurry in its original form. But Aaron’s seeming unwillingness to address the show indicates that he did not give them permission to use his image.
Though his personal life has been unwillingly discussed on the show, Aaron Rodgers has not commented on “The Bachelorette.” He did, however, pay tribute to an NFL player who announced his retirement.
