Aaron Rodgers gets girlfriend actress Olivia Munn a 'very special ring'

"He's very happy. This is frankly, I think, the happiest I've ever seen him."

That's what Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy told reporters about quarterback Aaron Rodgers during a press conference on Oct. 9. Two weeks later, it's becoming clear why the 2011 NFL MVP has such a pleasant disposition. Sure, the Packers are 5-2 and riding a four-game winning streak. But things are also going well for the Super Bowl champion off the field as well.

Enter Olivia Munn. The star of such projects as Magic Mike and The Newsroom offered a little insight into their relationship via the New York Post.

On her right ring finger is a vintage yellow-gold ring with a large oval emerald. “This is a gift from my boyfriend, actually,” she says. That would be Aaron Rodgers, the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, whom she’s been dating since April, after they reportedly met at the Academy of Country Music Awards.

“I wore this for a premiere,” she says, playing with the bauble gently, “and he had heard me talking to my stylist about being obsessed with it. It is such a special ring, and then he surprised me.”

Then she clarifies: “It’s not that kind of ring, by the way. It’s not the special ring. I mean, it’s a very special ring, but it is not the special ring.”

OK. So the pair isn't engaged. But that's still a very thoughtful move by the three-time Pro Bowler. Munn's next feature is Mortdecai, an action-comedy also starring Johnny Depp, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ewan McGregor. Next up for Rodgers is the New Orleans Saints on Sunday Night Football.
