Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is reportedly rumored to be dating a woman called Mallory Edens.
Edens and Rodgers have known each other since at least 2019. But last week, the Daily Mail and others reported on rumors (earlier published in Sports Gossip) that the two are now dating.
Mallory is the daughter of Wes Edens, who co-owns the Milwaukee Bucks NBA franchise. Rodgers purchased a one percent stake in the Bucks in 2018, meaning that if rumors are true, he’s dating the daughter of his sort-of business partner.
However, neither Rodgers nor Edens appears to have publicly acknowledged rumors that they are dating. Nor has either party confirmed them.
How old is Mallory Edens? Age gap with Aaron Rodgers revealed
According to multiple sources, Mallory Edens is currently 26 years old, meaning the age gap between her and Rodgers is about 12 and a half years.
Born April 18, 1996, she will turn 27 next year.
Meanwhile Rodgers, born December 2, 1983, recently turned 39. He will turn 40 during the lead up to Christmas 2023, at which point Edens will have already turned 27.
They have known each other since at least 2019, writes the Daily Mail, when Mallory Edens and Aaron Rodgers’ respective ages were 22/23 and 35/36.
They are also connected via her father’s business
Aside from their personal relationship, Edens and Rodgers are connected via his part ownership of the Milwaukee Bucks NBA franchise.
In April 2018, Rodgers became a limited partner in the Milwaukee Bucks ownership group. He thereby became the first active NFL player with an ownership stake in an NBA franchise.
And it just so happens that the NBA franchise of which Aaron Rodgers purchased stake is the one owned by Mallory Edens’ father, Wesley.
Wes Edens is an American billionaire businessman and private equity investor. He co-founded Fortress Investment Group and, in 2014, bought the Bucks from Herb Kohl for $550 million. He did so with Marc Lasry.

At what age did Mallory Edens first enter the public eye?
Much of her fame comes from her association with her billionaire father, but Edens made headlines in 2017 (age 21) when, while guesting on the Sources Say podcast, she announced her aspiration to one day buy the New York Knicks.
In the same year, Time published an article of hers about how companies advertise sports to young women.
She has 226K followers on Instagram, where she posts modeling photos and selfies with her dog, Prince.
In the summer of 2021, Prince went missing. A family found him on the Bronx–Whitestone Bridge in New York City and took him home with them to Peekskill, NY. Find a video of Prince and Edens’ reunion here.
How rich is her father? Could he afford to buy the Knicks?
When Mallory told TMZ Sports’ podcast that she hoped one day to buy the New York Knicks, her father Wes’ net worth was somewhere around a billion dollars.
The conversation made it into Bleacher Report.
“I want to buy the Knicks one day,” she reportedly said. “I don’t need to swap, my dad can keep the Bucks. I’ll take the Knicks, and I’ll see him in the Eastern Conference Finals.”
Forbes had recently valued the Knicks at $3.3 billion, making the team unaffordable to the Edens. However, Forbes now estimates Wes Edens’ net worth to be $4.2 billion, meaning he’s closer to having a shot at buying the team.
Of course, that doesn’t make him any more likely to. If his daughter is still set on owning the team, in other words, she might have to rustle up the cash herself.
