Olivia Munn Criticizes Aaron Rodgers’ Documentary for Portraying an Untrue Story

The 44-year-old actress spoke candidly about her ex-boyfriend while explaining why she chose not to watch his 2024 Netflix documentary, “Enigma.”

Aaron Rodgers and Olivia Munn dated from 2014 to 2017, while he was still playing for the Green Bay Packers.

When reflecting on her ex’s latest project, Munn didn’t hold back.

According to Us Weekly, she disclosed, “I knew what it was going to be,” indicating that she didn’t watch it because she believed the project was going to convey a narrative that she felt “never would ring true” with her. Jennifer Munn further elaborated that she perceived the documentary as being designed to promote a specific narrative.

Munn explained that this narrative likely blamed her for any of the NFL quarterback’s struggles on the field.

She highlighted the discrepancy in how athletes’ successes and failures are portrayed in the media, drawing a connection to Jessica Simpson’s past experiences. Munn pointed out the lack of recognition Rodgers received for his achievements during their time together, emphasizing that his triumphs were overshadowed by his perceived failures.

Despite the passage of 8 years since their relationship ended, seeing the documentary delve into their past seemed to evoke certain emotions within Munn. She expressed frustration at the disparity in the acknowledgment of Rodgers’ accomplishments compared to his setbacks during their time together.

“That had nothing to do with me,” she clarified, referring to Rodgers’ estrangement from his parents and his brother Jordan Rodgers, who became known for appearing on “The Bachelorette.”

In the episode featuring Jordan, two empty seats were conspicuously left at the family dinner table, highlighting the absence of Aaron. Jordan’s comments during the show suggested a longing for reconciliation, stating, “It would have been nice to share JoJo with not only my parents and my brother Luke, but Aaron as well.”

Following the airing of the episode, reports suggested that Aaron’s parents disapproved of his relationship with Munn, particularly due to her public discussions about their private life.

Now, Munn explained that the speculation around her alleged role in causing the family rift was “a big thing” and that she was unfairly blamed for it.

In her latest interview, the actress emphasized, “It became this whole big thing, and people were like, ‘I can’t believe her, she’s keeping this family apart.'” While she knows the reason behind the rift, Munn stressed, “I’m not saying because it’s not my story to tell.”

Munn did find solace in Rodgers’ comments last year, when he publicly denied her involvement in the family tension.

“Even if people didn’t want to take hold of that statement, it made me feel good that it was said,” she said.

During the podcast, Munn refrained from going into further details about her past relationship with Rodgers or commenting on his recent marriage.

Earlier this month, Rodgers confirmed he wed a mystery woman named Brittani, and he has openly criticized the public’s obsession with his private life.

During an appearance on ESPN’s “The Pat McAfee Show” on Tuesday, June 24, Rodgers called out the public for wanting to know every little detail about his love life.

“It’s a sick society, isn’t it? It’s a sick society,” the quarterback said. “I lived in the public eye for 20 years. I had public relationships. How did that work out?”
