Aaron Hernandez ended up being referenced at least a few different times during Tom BradyIt’s roasted – and not in a flattering way either… that’s why his ex-fiancee is upset.
Partner of late Patriots star Shayanna Jenkins — who is also the mother of her only child — tells TMZ she’s disappointed that her late fiancé was the butt of several jokes during the Netflix show … which ended up making light of her sad story.
She says, “It’s sad that I’m trying to raise my children in such a cruel world.”
Shayanna goes on to say that even though Aaron is gone and a lot of people have opinions about him and his life – their daughter, who is now 11, is still very much present.
Waiting for your permission to upload Instagram media.
She also says the fact that her daughter is now coming of age as a pre-teen means there’s no doubt she’ll see what was said about her father on Sunday… coming from a bunch of grown men who have fun with her tragic death and that of someone she viewed as her hero.
Bottom line… Shayanna thinks Aaron should be off limits, and he definitely wasn’t.

If you didn’t notice… Aaron was touched – directly and indirectly – several times during the roast, including by Tom himself. Nikki Glazer made a joke about Aaron and a ring around his neck… while his former teammate Julian Edelman made a joke too.
There were lots of oohs and ahhs during these awkward moments… but also, laughter.

As you all know… Aaron took his own life in prison – after being convicted of murder.
Obviously an ugly period for the Pats – but clearly, it wasn’t over the top for Brady and company. … because they went there and then some. Nikki continued Howard SternMonday’s show to dissect the entire roast…including what was actually prohibited in terms of material.
Turns out… Tom’s most important problem was his kids – so there were no jokes about them.
Anyway, it came and went – but it looks like the cheap shots hurt Aaron’s loved ones. It’s hard to say if anyone will apologize or not… based on the vibe from last night, probably not.
