RELATED: Danica Patrick through the years

Former Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series full-time driver Danica Patrick is dating two-time NFL MVP and six-time Pro Bowl quarterback Aaron Rodgers, she confirmed to the Associated Press.

“Yes, Aaron and I are dating,” she told the AP.

Patrick previously dated two-time 2017 Monster Energy Series winner Ricky Stenhouse Jr. for five years before the pair ended their relationship in December. Rodgers and actress Olivia Munn split in late 2017 after dating for three years.

Patrick, a native of Roscoe, Illinois, and avid fan of Chicago sports, may have to rethink her allegiance to the Green Bay Packers’ heated NFC North rival — the Chicago Bears. She and Rodgers first met in 2012 at the ESPY Awards, according to the AP.

“I told him a long time ago I’d always root for him as a player,” she said in the AP report. “Now I am probably going to cheer for the whole team. Take out the word ‘probably.’ Now I’m going to cheer for the whole team.”

The former Stewart-Haas Racing driver recently released her health and fitness book, Pretty Intense, last month.

Patrick announced at the 2017 season finale in Miami that she would not return to full-time racing in 2018. She hopes to compete in both the Daytona 500 and Indy 500 this year.
