Jordan Love’s summer was one to remember. Before returning to Green Bay for training camp, the Packers quarterback married his longtime girlfriend, professional volleyball player Ronika Stone. The two tied the knot after years of dating, marking a new chapter for one of the NFL’s rising stars. It was a celebration that blended love, family, and a bit of Packers pride, as teammates and friends shared in the couple’s happiness. Stone, who has built her own impressive athletic career, has been a steady presence in Love’s life throughout his journey from backup to franchise leader. The couple celebrated their wedding with a host of friends, family, and a few familiar NFL faces. Now, as Love prepares to lead the Packers into a big-time Sunday Night Football matchup against Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers, his life off the field seems just as steady as his rise on it. A Summer of Celebration Love and Stone’s wedding in late June showed off the result of a relationship that has been public yet seemingly grounded. The two met several years ago, and their connection quickly grew as Stone’s volleyball career flourished and Love continued to develop as the next in line for Green Bay’s quarterback legacy. Stone, who stars for the San Diego Mojo of the Pro Volleyball Federation, often posts glimpses of their life together, workouts, travel, and family moments, showing off a partnership built on mutual respect and support. Her recent Instagram post celebrating their one-month anniversary read: “One month of marriage ✨💍,” with photos of the couple smiling and dancing. It was a simple yet very heartfelt message that hit home with fans who have followed their story since Love was drafted in 2020. At their wedding, one moment that caught attention came from former Packers lineman David Bakhtiari, who shared a playful post that read, “Love is love. Congrats to the Loves. Just happy at least one of my quarterbacks invited me to their wedding.” It was a lighthearted jab at Aaron Rodgers, who reportedly married privately earlier in the year. Ronika Stone’s Impact on Love’s Journey Stone’s influence on Love has been shown throughout his development as a starting quarterback. During offseason interviews, Love said she took charge of most of the wedding planning but said he was eager to help where he could. “Ronika’s been really involved with handling all the stuff,” he said at the time. “It’s been awesome. We’re excited, we’re ready for it.” Beyond wedding details, Stone has often been a calming presence during the pressures that come with replacing a franchise legend. Her athletic background gives her an understanding of the commitment required at the professional level. That mindset seems to have kept Love controlled as he’s gone through both personal milestones and the challenge of leading one of the NFL’s most storied franchises. Love’s 2025 Season and a Familiar Face Now entering his second full season as the Packers’ starter, Love has shown maturity and leadership. After a strong finish to the 2024 campaign, he entered the 2025 season with higher expectations, both from fans and from himself. His poise in the pocket and confidence in Matt LaFleur’s offense have locked his role as the face of the franchise. Tonight’s matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers adds another layer to the narrative. Across the field will be Rodgers, the man who once held Love’s position and whose departure marked a new era for Green Bay. While the storyline of former mentor versus successor writes itself, Love has handled the comparisons with class and quiet focus. He remains set on winning football games, not chasing shadows.
