Couples therapist Figs O’Sullivan has warned that a partner who is always in “pass protection” can end up feeling unseen and unsupported. The comment came after an E! News description of Aaron Rodgers’ wife Brittani as someone who shields him from pressure. O’Sullivan said the pattern does not prove that Rodgers and Brittani have marital problems, but argued that support must work both ways. Rodgers publicly mentioned Brittani in December 2024 and confirmed in June 2025 that they had married a few months earlier. During an NFL Network appearance on August 1, 2026, he credited conversations with Brittani for helping him reconnect with his family. He said she was not pushing him, but deserved credit for how she supported him.
