Q: I saw that JoJo Fletcher from “The Bachelorette” finally married Aaron Rodgers’ brother. I didn’t see any pictures of Aaron though. Was he at the wedding? – D.E.

A: No, NFL star quarterback Aaron Rodgers did not attend brother Jordan’s wedding in May. Reportedly, Aaron has been estranged from his family for several years now. Jordan did invite him to the nuptials, but he didn’t attend. Back in November 2021, father Ed Rodgers told the media that “things are progressing” in his relationship with Aaron, but gave no further details.

On “The Bachelorette” in 2016, when JoJo went to visit Jordan for their hometown date, Aaron was noticeably absent. Jordan explained that he and Aaron “don’t really have that much of a relationship” and that he doesn’t have hard feelings against him. It was rumored that things went sour when Aaron started dating actress Olivia Munn (they’ve since broken up), but she has stated that Aaron was already distant from his family when they started their courtship.

As for Jordan Rodgers, he was a quarterback at Vanderbilt University and has worked as a college football analyst for ESPN.

Diana Jenkins (Tommy Garcia/Bravo)

Q: Who is Diana Jenkins, the newest cast member on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”? Also, who was she married to who was so wealthy? – F.L.

A: Born Sanela Dijana Catic, the newest Bravo housewife is of Bosnian descent. She escaped Sarajevo in 1992 during the war, fled to Croatia and ultimately emigrated to London. In 1999, she had the good fortune of meeting Roger Jenkins, who, according to Wikipedia, was the “highest paid banker” in the city of London during the mid-2000s while working for Barclays. The couple divorced in 2011, and she was said to have secured a $250 million divorce settlement.

Diana, 49, recently had a baby with her fiance, 33-year-old singer-songwriter Asher Moore. She fits in nicely with the other full-lipped Beverly Hills housewives, but fortunately she also is generous with her wealth. She established a foundation in the memory of her brother who died in the Bosnian War, and she and actor Sean Penn started a relief organization for the people of Haiti after the devastating 2010 earthquake.

Q: Is there going to be a new season of the Martin Short/Steve Martin comedy? I forgot the name of it. It’s on Hulu, and the first season was so great. – K.M.

A: “Only Murders in the Building” is the name of the mystery/comedy series with two of the funniest comedic actors to grace our screens in the past 50 years. Steve Martin and Martin Short play Charles Haden-Savage and Oliver Putnam, respectively, who, despite their bickering, solved the murder of one of their fellow tenants in Manhattan. The season finale left viewers with a cliffhanger that I won’t spoil, but let’s just say that the duo found themselves in a predicament with fellow crime-solver Mabel Mora, played by Selena Gomez. Season two begins Tuesday, June 28, on Hulu.
