American footballer Aaron Rodgers shocked fans when he announced he was engaged while accepting an award. It turns out his fiancé is none other than Big Little Lies actress Shailene Woodley.
On February 6, Rodgers accepted the NFL Most Valued Player award during a virtual appearance on the NFL Honors broadcast. During his speech, he casually slipped in that he was engaged but did not name his fiancé.
“2020 was definitely a crazy year filled with lots of change, growth, some amazing, memorable moments, 180 straight days of having my nose hair scraped, playing for very little fans or no stands the entire season. I got engaged and I played some of the best football in my career,” he said.
“So I’d like to thank, first and foremost, my teammates for their support, their inspiration, protection, incredible play on the field … off the field I’ve got a great group of people that support me, so I’d like to thank my team.” He then listed a slew of people before shouting out “my fiancée.”
A source confirmed to People magazine that the Descendants actor and the Green Bay Packers quarterback are engaged and incredibly happy.
“They are very happy together. It’s not surprising he proposed so fast. When you know, you know, right?” said the insider.
This engagement comes mere days after US Magazine confirmed the pair were dating.

Forget finding love out there, it’s all about starting with some inner reflection – as they say, you need to love yourself before you can properly love anyone…
Go bold and take a feathered approach to your wedding dress. This one’s definitely in the realm of the untraditional – for the bride who likes to stand out from the flock.
Artificial features are made from polyester materials, then printed to look like real feathers. What’s great about them is that they’re easy to clean and hold up well over time.
Whether you go long, short, ball gown, full-fledged, or with a simple feathery accent around the back or bust, the trick is to keep it soft and feminine. This is your wedding dress, not a costume, so don’t allow the trend to take over.
Here are some feathered fancies to inspire you

Admit it, sometime after the happy engagement fog cleared and the business of planning began, it hit you: the joy of selecting items for a gift registry lies…
Although most of the focus is on finding the perfect wedding dress, equal care and attention should be given to the mother of the bride-to-be.
If you want to stand out from the crowd but not upstage the bride on her special day, keep these tips in mind.
It is important to consider styles and colours in advance to avoid last-minute scramble and remember to find out what the groom’s mother will be wearing so as not to clash.
Choose a colour that best suits your personal style and that matches the wedding decor scheme. For an ultra-fashionable evening wedding, black is especially on-trend. Its formal, sophisticated and although some may say wearing black to a wedding is taboo, this is no longer true in our modern times.
If you feel like sporting a dash of colour, a beautiful emerald green, navy or floral print design suits a day wedding perfectly. Keep it simple with accessories and add a statement piece, like chic clutch bag or a bold necklace. Cover your shoulders with a bolero jacket, opt for a pop of colour if you’re wearing a plainer dress, or tone your look down with a simple shape and fabric.
Allow yourself time to consider various styles and fits. Once the bride has established her colour theme and the style of her dress, you should start designing or shopping for your own. It’s worth investing in a dress you can wear again, so keep it simple, comfortable and versatile.
