Though she's a noted Bears fan, Danica Patrick is dating Packers QB Aaron Rodgers because love knows no bounds and also most adults don't care about things like that. Patrick confirmed this news (if that's what you decide to call it) on Monday while speaking to the Associated Press. "Yes, Aaron and I are dating," she said. See, doesn't really get any clearer than that.

The two had been romantically linked since the start of 2018 which, as you're aware, wasn't that long ago. This past November Patrick ended a five-year relationship with NASCAR racer Ricky Stenhouse Jr. While Rodgers also ended a three-year relationship with Olivia Munn last April (or at least that's when the press got word of it, who knows when it actually happened).

According to AP, Rodgers and Patrick first met at the 2012 ESPY Awards where she told him that, despite being a Bears fan, "I'd always root for him as a player."

"Now I am probably going to cheer for the whole team," she added on Monday, before re-thinking that premise. "Take out the word 'probably.' Now I'm going to cheer for the whole team."

Furthermore, TMZ had pictures of the two of them recently eating dinner at a Scottsdale, Arizona restaurant. Now that Patrick has confirmed their relationship, there's not much intrigue to it, and it's really just a picture of the back of two people's heads. That's not the best sell I've ever given but, whatever, the pictures are here if you want them.
