Aaron Rodgers is finally clearing his ex Olivia Munn’s name after she’s been accused of fueling a longstanding family feud between the NFL star and his relatives, according to a new book.

The Jets quarterback told writer Ian O’Connor for “Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers” that the actress had “nothing to do with” his family’s “deep-rooted” issues, People reported Friday.

His father, Ed Rodgers, once told the New York Times that Aaron had not spoken to neither him, mom Darla Rodgers nor siblings Luke Rodgers and Jordan Rodgers since 2014.

“Aaron has never wanted to air this out in a public forum. He’s going through great precautions not to make this worse,” a source close to the football player told People three years later.

“You’re not going to see him on Oprah crying about all of this. He will deal with his family issues privately.”

Aaron, 40, started dating Munn, 44, in May 2014 and two years into their romance, the “Newsroom” alum was blamed for the athlete’s estrangement from his family.

A source claimed to Us Weekly in 2016, “The family says Aaron stopped talking to them. While Aaron says they don’t talk because his family doesn’t like Olivia.”

Aaron and Munn eventually split in 2017. A year later, the former “Daily Show” correspondent made remarks about the family rift, upsetting one of her ex’s brothers.

She pointed out on Andy Cohen’s Sirius XM show in May 2018 how “fame and success” can make family dynamics “really complicated.”

“[The Rodgers family] are all into sports and Aaron is one of the best, if not the best, quarterbacks to play the game. Their work has a direct connection to what he does,” the “Predator” star explained.

“There’s a lot of complications. I don’t think either side of the road is clean, but I do think it’s not OK if you try to stand on someone’s shoulders, then throw dirt in their face, that’s what I think.”

Her comments pissed off Jordan, who had gained some notoriety himself after appearing on Season 12 of “The Bachelorette” with now-wife JoJo Fletcher in 2016.

“I’ll say I have no idea why she’s still talking about an ex, I don’t get that,” the SEC Network analyst, 35, told Us Weekly in June 2018.

Munn, who is now married to comedian John Mulaney and shares a son with him, is reportedly pleased that Aaron has come to her defense — even if its years later.

“It’s been almost a decade of these ridiculous rumors, and I know she really appreciates Aaron finally shutting it down,” a source told People Friday.

 “The Rodgers family has a lot going on, and she hopes they find some peace.”

Meanwhile, it appears that Aaron and his folks may finally be on the path toward making amends.

According to an excerpt of “Out of the Darkness” that The Post exclusively obtained Thursday, the ex-Green Bay Packers quarterback had a secret meeting with his father at a golf tournament in 2023.

The chiropractor reportedly secured a ticket to the event in the hopes of running into his son.
