With a radio show, hosting gigs on Wheel of Fortune and American Idol, and other professional endeavors, Ryan Seacrest is kept quite busy. However, he’s still made time to let love in his life over the years.
While the broadcaster is currently single and joked in March 2025 that relationships are his “biggest fear,” he’s previously been in several long-term relationships amid his time in the public eye. Seacrest never got married or had kids, though.
“I do want to have kids,” he admitted in a 2021 interview with WSJ Magazine. “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.”
Scroll down for a full recap of Seacrest’s dating history and girlfriends from over the years.

Julianne Hough
Seacrest’s first high-profile relationship was with Julianne Hough. The two dated from 2010 to 2013 before calling it quits.
“Every relationship, there was nothing wrong or bad, but there was nothing right,” Hough told Redbook in 2014. “I had one foot out because I didn’t want to get hurt. And I didn’t say what was on my mind because I didn’t want to ruffle any feathers.”
