Ryan Seacrest, the powerhouse host of American Idol and Live with Kelly and Ryan, has long captivated audiences with his charm and work ethic. But behind the scenes, his love life has been a subject of equal fascination. From a years-long on-again, off-again relationship with chef Shayna Taylor to high-profile romances with Julianne Hough and Aubrey Paige, Seacrest’s dating history reveals a man who is both deeply committed to his career and open to the idea of love. With his recent split from Australian realtor Camille Orders, we break down the timeline of Seacrest’s relationships and explore what the future holds for the ever-elusive bachelor.
Multitalented and in-demand media personality Ryan Seacrest wears many hats, but one thing he’s not wearing is a wedding band on his ring finger—though he has admittedly come close to getting engaged before. The hardest-working man in Hollywood’s parents have been married for over 50 years, “so there’s a high bar” for Seacrest. “That’s in my head,” the former Live with Kelly and Ryan co-host confessed in 2022. While the TV host, producer, radio star and philanthropist hasn’t walked down the aisle yet, he’s certainly had many high-profile relationships.
Is Ryan Seacrest Single? The Latest on His Relationship Status
In November 2025, it was announced that the American Idol host split from most recent fling, Australian realtor Camille Orders. This news confirmed that the media mogul is currently single and back on the market after his long-term relationship with Aubrey Paige came to an end in April 2024.
The Aubrey Paige Era: A Three-Year Romance
Seacrest and model Aubrey Paige met in 2021. Reflecting in a New Year’s Eve post that year, Paige wrote on her Instagram, “Safe to say the best part of 2021 was meeting the most incredible man 😍🙌🏼.” She was on hand for Seacrest’s final day on Live with Kelly & Ryan in April 2023, and penned a supportive message on Instagram. “Ryan, never have I ever met a more inspiring man. You make it look so easy, but the truth is there is just nobody quite like you. I am so beyond proud of you,” Paige wrote.
“Not just for your work ethic, but for your caring heart and the genuine love that you give to others. I am so excited for this next chapter of your life and our life,” she continued. “May it be filled with total presence, joy and relaxation in every single moment. The best is yet to come. Cheers 🥂Love ya babe 💕.”
The following year, People reported in April 2024 that Seacrest and Aubrey Paige had split. “After three beautiful years together, Ryan and Aubrey have mutually decided to part ways,” a source told the outlet. “They plan to stay in each other’s lives as good friends and support one another’s endeavors.”
The Shayna Taylor Saga: An On-Again, Off-Again Relationship
Seacrest and Taylor dated on-and-off for eight years. According to People, Seacrest and Shayna Taylor met through friends in 2013. They first split in 2014. In 2017, People reported that they moved in together after reconnecting, but split again in 2019. Following their split, a source told People that Taylor “wanted more out of the relationship,” adding, “It felt like the natural next step for her. She was ready to get married, but Ryan wasn’t there yet.”
By September 2019, Seacrest and the chef were back together. In 2020, the Emmy-winning television host gave Taylor a sweet shout-out on Live with Kelly and Ryan. “I just want to say, happy third anniversary to Shayna,” he said. “It is our third time together. So we’ve gotten together, broken up, gotten together, broken up. This is number three of being together. So we’re celebrating as well.”
The couple called it quits for the third time in 2020. “Ryan and Shayna decided to end their romantic relationship amicably some time ago,” a rep for Seacrest told People in June of 2020. “They remain good friends, each other’s biggest supporters and will always cherish their time together as a couple.”
Other Notable Relationships in Ryan Seacrest’s Past
Before his long-term relationships, Seacrest was linked to several other high-profile women. Us Weekly reported in 2015 that Seacrest was dating former Miss Teen USA Hilary Cruz. The pair were said to have first met at the TV star’s 40th birthday party that February. Months later, the Daily Mail published pictures of the pair leaving a restaurant in West Hollywood and in the summer were pictured on a yacht in Portofino.
Prior to Cruz, Seacrest reportedly dated model Renée Hall. They were spotted out together in New York City in March of 2015. According to TMZ, Seacrest and Hall also met at his 40th birthday party in Napa.
Julianne Hough: A Defining Romance
One of Seacrest’s most well-known relationships was with Julianne Hough. Hough revealed to Glamour in 2012 that when she first went to L.A. someone tried to set her up with Seacrest, but she was engaged to a guy she knew from Utah at the time. The pair didn’t go on a date until months after she and her boyfriend broke up. Per People, she and Seacrest started dating in the summer of 2010.
Discussing balancing her career and relationship with Seacrest, Hough told Parade in 2012, “It’s a hard thing to do, especially when you’re so caught up in your work and bettering yourself. It does get hard because you’re so focused on that, but I think at the end of the day you have to find a balance with what’s really important. I’m so lucky that I have a great relationship. I’m very blessed and I don’t take anything for granted. I think if you alienate people and just focus on your work then it just becomes lonely and it’s not fun anymore.”
In March of 2013, it was reported that the media mogul and Hough had gone their separate ways. Despite splitting, they’ve remained friends. During an On-Air With Ryan Seacrest interview in 2022, Hough said that she and Seacrest have “respect and love” for each other. Seacrest noted, “There is nothing uncomfortable about it because we remain friends for years and still are.”
Seacrest on Marriage and Fatherhood
Seacrest is not married, but he’s said in the past that he loves “the idea of marriage.” Speaking to Kelly Ripa in 2017, the On Air with Ryan Seacrest host said, “My parents [have] been married for 47 years, and so I have this thing…” He explained, “The truth is, I have this thing that I don’t want to screw it up and a lot of times, they get screwed up and so I figure, the longer I wait, the older I’ll be, the closer to death I am, so I can get it in, and not screw it up.”
Seacrest told Ripa in 2017 that he’s never been engaged, but admitted at the time that he’s gotten close. “I didn’t do it and it was the right move,” he shared.
While the TV and radio personality does not have any children, he’s expressed interest in one day having kids. In an interview with WSJ Magazine, published in December 2021, Seacrest, who was dating Aubrey Paige at the time, said: “I do want to have kids. But I haven’t even gone down that path, which is nuts at my age. I think in the last year, it’s become clear to me that yes, I do want to do that… I want to be available and present.”
As Ryan Seacrest continues to dominate the airwaves and television screens, fans will undoubtedly remain curious about his personal life. With a history of high-profile relationships and a candid perspective on love and commitment, Seacrest’s journey to finding his own “happily ever after” is one that continues to captivate the public’s imagination.
