Jordan Love is the starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers following the trade of Aaron Rodgers.

It's unknown how Love and Stone met. However, sources claim that the couple started dating back in September 2020, which was not long after the Packers drafted him and before Love had amassed a net worth of $12.5 million. Since then, the couple has featured each other in their social media accounts. In fact, Stone has been very supportive of her boyfriend, who got the starting nod for the Green Bay Packers.
During the Packers' first game of the 2023 season, Stone made waves on social media after getting arguably the worst seats in the house. However, Stone was satisfied just to watch her boyfriend lead the Packers to a 38-20 victory over the Chicago Bears.
In fact, she even said in her Instagram story, “The view was better than it seemed, I swear!”
Stone also finally accomplished her desire to be featured on SportsCenter. However, it wasn't for her volleyball skills.
In her story, Stone added “I always wanted to be on sportscenter… thought it'd be for volleyball tho…”
In January 2024, Stone went “viral” when she trolled Cowboys fans during the Packers' playoff victory. She posted a video of empty seats that Cowboys fans had vacated during the Packers' blowout win.
