The Divergent star had been dating the Green Bay Packers quarterback and aspiring Jeopardy! host since 2020, and they announced their engagement in February 2021. Last fall, Rodgers found himself in hot water after it was revealed he isn't vaccinated against COVID-19, even though he implied he was when he said he was "immunized." Woodley at the time slammed the "sh---y media" over its coverage of Rodgers. "Literally ya'll need to calm the f--- down," she wrote in response to a report claiming to show him out in Los Angeles getting coffee.
