Ryan Seacrest is one of the most beloved, influential, and respected producers, tv, and radio hosts; however, now there are no amount of accomplishments that can replace his desire to become a father. The media mainstay recently opened up about starting a family with a 24-year-old girlfriend, Aubrey Paige.
The 46-year-old star admitted he does “want to have kids” despite his mother thinks she won’t be becoming a grandmother. The Live With Kelly and Ryan co-host started dating Paige in May 2021 after splitting from her longtime on and off girlfriend, Shayna Taylor.

He started talking more about fatherhood in October during his On Air With Ryan Seacrest radio show. “I said a few weeks ago, ‘I‘m not so into it,’ and then I saw some of my friends’ kids get excited about it. Then I see my niece, and she‘s so beautiful,’” he told his listeners.
“Then I see you, [co-host Sisanie], with twins, and I see how happy you are, and I would never in a million years — actually if you asked me when I was 40 a few years ago ‘Do you want kids?’ [I‘d say], ‘I don’t know’ — and now, all of a sudden, all I can think about is, ‘Wow, how do I do that? I’m getting older. What are the options?“’
