Ryan Seacrest is known for keeping his love life secret, but he (along with cohost Kelly Ripa) can’t help but rave about his current partner, Aubrey Paige.
In June 2021, Us Weekly exclusively revealed the affair between the American Idol host and the model, whose full name is Aubrey Paige Petcosky.
“[They are] very happy together and doing great,” an insider told Us at the time, adding that the pair were “keeping their relationship very private.”
Despite the 23-year age gap between Seacrest and Paige, the Live With Kelly and Ryan cohost has dated people half his age before.
The age difference between ex-girlfriend Julianne Hough and Seacrest, dating from 2010 to 2013, is 13 years old. He dated chef Shayna Taylor, 17 years his junior, for eight years before starting a relationship with Paige.
“Ryan and Shayna decided to end their romantic relationship amicably some time ago,” his rep told Us in June 2020. “They remain good friends, each other’s biggest supporters and will always cherish their time together as a couple.”
Paige eventually moved on with Seacrest, but it took months before she met Ripa. The All My Children actress referred to her friend’s girlfriend as “the most exciting visitor that arrived” to her husband Mark Consuelos’ birthday celebration during an April 2022 episode of their talk show.
“Kelly said, ‘We’re all happy you’re here and that you exist because we weren’t sure there was somebody,’” Seacrest recalled, to which Ripa added,
“We were starting to be like, ‘Maybe he doesn’t have a special person and maybe we should check in on him more often?
By informing her cohost that she “shall go into seclusion” if Seacrest breaks up with his girlfriend, the actress is a fan of Paige.
“That’s exactly what she said to her,” Seacrest replied. “I said, ‘That’s a compliment.’” About Consuelos, the radio host disclosed that the Riverdale star expressed concerns regarding the couple’s height disparity.
“Mark pulled me aside at the beginning of the night. He said, ‘Can I ask you a question? … She’s really tall. She’s taller than you, and much taller in heels. How does that work? ’ I was like, ‘What are you asking me? ’” he said.
“He had that dead-serious look. He’s like, ‘Because Kelly and I always talk about that. The height.’ … He was so confused. He was like, ‘When you walk together, whose arm goes where? ’”

“He’s trying not to get too far ahead of himself, it’s still relatively early days after all, but the fact he was willing to go, red carpet official, was a big step.”
