Shailene Woodley hints at why she and NFL star Aaron Rodgers broke up in cryptic interview - two years after pair calls off engagement

Shailene Woodley seemingly addressed her split with New York Jets Quarterback Aaron Rodgers during an interview on Monday.

The Fault in Our Stars actress, 32 — who is slated to star in the new series, Three Women — opened up about her 'broken heart' to Bustle two years after the pair called off their engagement in February 2022. 

She admitted that she falls in love 'over and over with unavailability,' leading to cycles of her feeling 'healed and broken again.' 

'I love easy and I care easy, but I do not love lightly, and I do not care lightly. It’s really taken me a lot of time to understand that it’s not on me to fix or heal or do anything about [a relationship] other than protect the deep care and love that I have for the world and for my people,' she told the outlet.

Shailene added: 'Ultimately, that has helped me walk away without the need to understand why certain things didn’t play out the way that I may have desired them to.'

And the Big Little Lies star made it clear that she is 'not interested' in a partner that 'disrespects' or 'crosses' her.

She shared: 'I used to be a person who … would continue to give and give. And now... I respectfully go, "Thank you so much for that information. Have a beautiful life. I wish you well."'

It was previously reported that Shailene and the anti-vax fiancé sportsman had decided to 'agree to disagree about things and not debate them' during their time together. 

'They are not talking about their politics, and they never really have,' an insider said at the time. 

Amid their whirlwind romance, the Emmy nominee gushed to Jimmy Fallon that she did not think she would end up with a person who 'threw balls for a living.' 

Fans were devastated when they called off their engagement in February of 2022.

And last January she admitted that their split was the 'darkest, hardest time of [her] life while talking with Net-A-Porter.

'My personal life was sh*tty, so it felt like a big pain bubble for eight months. … I was so grateful that at least I could go to work and cry and process my emotions through my character,' she said at the time.

Since they called it quits, the six-foot-two football star was rumored to have moved on with model Mallory Edens.

Shailene, however, has not gone public with another romance — instead focusing on herself and her career. 

Later in her Monday interview she opened up about her desire to become a mother soon, explaining that it 'should have happened by now.' 

'I want to be a mom,' the Divergent star said, explaining that she does not 'have expectations of life' and thinks motherhood 'should have happened by now' for her.

She gushed of her future hopes: 'I want to cook someone dinner every night and travel the world with them and have pillow talk and celebrate their joys and their purpose and their destinies.'

But instead she plans to 'wake up every day and... say out loud, "I’m so excited for the magic and miracles that are going to happen."'
