AceShowbiz - Aaron Rodgers has finally broken his silence about his brother Jordan Rodgers' participation in the currently airing season 12 of "The Bachelorette". Jordan said several times on the show that he and his family were not close with the Super Bowl MVP.
Speaking to WISN a week before JoJo Fletcher picks between Jordan and Robby, Aaron says he hasn't watched his brother on the show. "I haven't seen the show, to be honest with you, so it hasn't really affected me a whole lot," admits the Green Bay Packers quarterback.
The 32-year-old athlete refuses to talk more about his relationship with his family. "As far as those kinds of things go, I've always found that it's a little inappropriate to talk publicly about some family matters, so I'm just - I'm not going to speak on those things," he reasons, adding, "but I wish him well in the competition."
Aaron wasn't present when Jordan introduced JoJo to his family during "The Bachelorette" hometown dates episode. Sources tell ET that Aaron has actually been estranged from his entire family for years. "The entire situation is painful for the family," a source close to the family says.
Aaron's girlfriend Olivia Munn hinted at his strained relationship with his family when asked about Jordan appearing on the ABC reality dating series. The actress said in May, "Aaron doesn't really ... I don't think he's really talked with his brother. So, I actually don't know. It's complicated -- I'll say that."
