The couple sparked dating rumors after they were first spotted at a dinner date just after Christmas. Patrick and Rodgers first met at The ESPYs in 2012. Patrick recalled in May on “The Jenny McCarthy Show” her and Rodgers’ first meeting.
"We both remember meeting each other, it was quick. But I got his email address and I remember thinking to myself back then, 'Oh...not a phone number, just an email address.' Whatever,’” she said.
