No wedding bells here…yet! Olivia Munn shut down rumors that she’s engaged to NFL star Aaron Rodgers with a single post on Instagram. The actress took to social media to clear up the false reports that started yesterday with the help of her mom.
Munn shared a photo of a text message exchange between her and her mom, captioning the shot, “Answering yes or no to personal questions can be tricky because if you say ‘No’ it means whenever you say ‘No comment’ that kind of becomes your default ‘Yes.’ But since I’m doing press for the next few days, I didn’t want to have to answer the same question over and over,” the actress, who is currently doing press for Ride Along 2, explained. “So instead, I’m going to let my text conversation with my Asian mom help me out.”
In the text message Munn received, her mom wrote: “Oh man you engagement?? You know we love Aaron. I pray say thanks for him all the times. I bet Chance happy. Hey why don’t you tell me first?”
Munn hilariously replied, “Oh my gosh Mom no. You know you shouldn’t believe gossip on the internet. If I was engaged, I promise you’d be like the 8th person to know. Maybe 9th. But definitely way before the internet”
“Okay sound good,” Munn’s mom responded. “I see you going to be on Kelly and Michael show. Tell her I love her She so delicate, work out a lot I think. And Colberto too! Oh man you see everyone I love. Okay I have to go. Tell Aaron and Chance I said hi.”
The Green Bay Packers’ starting quarterback and The Newsroom actress presented the Song of the Year award during the 2014 Academy of Country Music Awards in April. One month later, Munn and Rodgers started dating.
