Aaron Rodgers’ feud with his younger brother, Jordan Rodgers, is well-documented, but he’s also not on great terms with his younger brother, Luke Rodgers.
New details about Luke and Aaron’s falling-out emerged in August 2024 with the publication of Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers, an unauthorized biography written by Ian O’Connor.
Things between Luke and Aaron allegedly came to a head in May 2015. At the time, Aaron was supposed to be the best man in former college teammate and roommate Francis Blay-Miezah’s wedding. According to O’Connor, the quarterback allegedly pulled out of the wedding at the last minute when he found out his family would be attending.
Luke appeared to shade his younger brother with Instagram photos from the wedding, including hashtags such as “#truefriendsshowup.” Per Aaron, who spoke to O’Connor for the book, Blay-Miezah did not understand “the complexity of the whole situation” regarding his family’s falling-out. (Aaron and his parents started their reported rift while the football player was dating Olivia Munn. He has denied her involvement in their ongoing feud.)
