Months ago, Danica Patrick appeared on The Sage Steele Show, where she discussed her relationship with Rodgers. She said, 'People could never imagine that I would lack any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. Everything was torn to bits.' Reflecting on their time together, she added, 'Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood. I don't think I'm saying too much earth-shattering stuff after we — there's been enough out there.'
Patrick continued, 'Hindsight, I ignored it, but in real life, it was just like I just feel like — I would say all the time, I'm built for hard things. I can handle hard things. And so I just saw it as a hard thing.'
