Aaron Rodgers’ parents still fuming over past Olivia Munn interview

Six years after Olivia Munn offered her take on ex-boyfriend Aaron Rodgers’ family feud, the comments continue to rub the Jets quarterback’s parents, Ed and Darla Rodgers, the wrong way.

Munn, who dated the four-time NFL MVP for three years and was long rumored to be a point of contention within the Rodgers unit, addressed the “complicated” dynamics back in 2018 on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy — remarks patriarch Ed believes were echoed to make a certain party “look good.”

“She just made stuff up to make herself look good,” Ed said in former Post columnist Ian O’Connor’s forthcoming book, “OUT OF THE DARKNESS: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers,” out Aug. 20. “She said the family was dysfunctional before she met Aaron, which is bull. We were going to all of his games; we were staying at his house. We had a great relationship. Nothing bad was going on.”

During Munn’s conversation with Andy Cohen, which took place after the pair’s 2017 breakup, she said Rodgers “hadn’t spoken to the parents and one brother for like eight months before we started dating.”

The actress, who is now married to comedian John Mulaney, with whom she shares a son, also suggested the quarterback have a candid conversation with his loved ones.

“My last day on ‘The Newsroom,’ when I was filming the ‘The Newsroom,’ I spent the day in my trailer just encouraging him to have an honest conversation with your parents,” Munn said. “… They had a really nice conversation and then they started coming out my first year when I was in Green Bay in 2014.”

Although Ed and Darla visited Rodgers “before an early-December home game and enjoyed a pleasant conversation with the actress” that year, sources relayed to O’Connor that following a disastrous outing by the quarterback in Buffalo, “Munn called Ed and Darla that night and blindsided them with an angry rant about their plans to see Aaron again when the Packers played at Tampa Bay before Christmas.”

Munn declined comment for O’Connor’s tome via a representative.

Rodgers, 40, is said to have stopped speaking to his parents in the winter of 2014.

When Munn expanded on the Rodgers drama during the 2018 interview, she said, “I do believe that family and fame and success can be really complicated if their dreams are connected to your success.”

“… They’re [Rodgers’ family] all into sports, they’re all in sports … Aaron is one of the best, if not the best quarterback to ever play the game. Their work has a direct connection to what he does.

“At the end of the day, there’s a lot of complications. I don’t think either side of the road is clean, but I do think it’s not OK when you try to stand on someone’s shoulders and then throw dirt in their face, which is what I think they did with him.”

Ed is a sports chiropractor, while Rodgers’ younger brother, former Vanderbilt quarterback Jordan Rodgers, had a brief professional football career before pivoting to TV, appearing on “The Bachelorette” in 2016. He’s now an SEC analyst.

Darla doesn’t find Munn’s assessment accurate.

“I can think about showbiz families that, like the Kardashians, climb all over each other for fame and stuff like that. But that’s not our family. Nobody did that,” she said.

Rodgers, now preparing for his second season with the Jets, briefly connected with his father last summer at a Lake Tahoe golf course, where they shared an emotional embrace.

He and the Jets will open the 2024 season in his native California against the 49ers on Monday, Sept. 9.
