Who is Mallory Edens? Aaron Rodgers spotted with Bucks heiress after Shailene Woodley split
Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers quarterback, was seen cheering on the Milwaukee Bucks during the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series on Wednesday, April 20. The 38-year-old NFL great was spotted courtside with Mallory Evans, the 25-year-old daughter of billionaire Wes Edens, one of the team's principal owners. Even though Rodgers was just attending the sports event, fans are convinced he went on a date with Edens.
Rodgers latest sighting comes after reports claimed he was trying to get back together with Shailene Woodley and give their relationship another chance — the two had announced their split in February after being engaged for a year.

Who is Mallory Edens?
Mallory Edens is somewhat of a social media star herself, with more than 200,000 followers on Instagram. She was born on April 18, 1996, and attended Princeton University, where she raced cross-country.
The 5ft 9in stunner is also a model and is represented by Elite Models in New York City. She often posts pictures of herself lounging around in a bikini on social media. Despite being a model, she hopes to one day follow in her father's footsteps. Edens stated in a 2017 interview with TMZ Sports that she aspires to buy an NBA club one day. "I want to buy the Knicks one day. I don't need to swap (teams), my dad can keep the Bucks.”
Edens is also a strong supporter of women, particularly in sports. She told TMZ, "I think women are hugely underrepresented in sports. I think it's not something we talk about enough. There are no female GMs. There's one team president who's a woman in the NBA. There are no female head coaches—hopefully, Becky Hammon gets a head coaching job soon. But other than that...there's never been a female commissioner in any of the four major American sports leagues."
Edens first appeared as Drake's Instagram profile image in 2019. Due to her and Drake's long-running rivalry, Edens donned a Pusha T t-shirt in retaliation to Drake's antics during the 2019 NBA playoff games between the Toronto Raptors and the Milwaukee Bucks. When Drake spotted the t-shirt, he changed his profile photo to one of Edens and uploaded a picture on his account with the caption, "All is fait in war and war, and trust me I'll still get you tickets to ovo fest."

While Rodgers appears to be ready to re-enter partnerships, Woodley appears to be more cautious. Rodgers has been quite kind to his ex, describing her as an ‘amazing partner to do life with’ on 'The Pat McAfee Show' in February. Rodgers said at the time, “She's just an incredible woman: talented, smart, kind. I said last night, that she taught me what unconditional love looks like and that's a great gift. When you have a partner like that it just makes life so much more enjoyable.”
