Danica Patrick’s separation from Aaron Rodgers left her so devastated that she was “opened.”
The former NASCAR driver reflected on the split and said, as she left her breathless, she learned a lot about herself.
“I think we learn the most about ourselves through relationships, but there’s nothing like the heart that really throws you into the deep end of it,” she said in Monday’s episode of Running Wild With Bear Grylls.
“But I learned a lot and as sad as I was at the sad end, I felt so much joy in so many cases and so many places less likely than I ever had, so it was as if my heart broke at both ends. of the spectrum. ”
Eventually, she relied on her family to help her heart.
“[My dad is] always super proud of me, ”she said. “And my mother. My sister. I am really lucky to have a very supportive family. You have to have someone to break up with, you know? ”
Patrick, 39, and Green Bay Packers defender, 37, were linked for the first time in 2018, and their relationship has become serious since then. The former couple bought a $ 28 million Malibu property in December 2019, but the big money purchase was not enough to keep them together.
Patrick’s representative confirmed to page Six in July 2020 that Patrick and Rodgers had split up.
The NFL player has finally moved in with his now fiancée Shailene Woodley, whom he met in quarantine. The “Little Little Lies” star confirmed in February 2021 that she and the football star were engaged.
Shortly afterwards, Patrick shared a cryptic message on social media about relationships.
“Your relationships are mirrors,” Patrick said. “We cannot receive what we do not believe. (I invented this right now, but I’m sure I’m not the first.) We see our whole lives through our own personal goals. What you are looking for is looking for you. Get what you think you deserve. When you change, the things you see change. Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right. “
