Love knows no boundaries, and that’s certainly the case for Ryan Seacrest and his girlfriend, Shayna Taylor. Sources close to the couple exclusively tell Closer Weekly that if Ryan decides to make the big move back to Los Angeles from New York City, Shayna is fully on board. She’s all about supporting Ryan wherever his career and personal life takes him. As one insider puts it, Shayna is ready to “follow” Ryan and be with him wherever he sets up his home base.

Big Decisions Ahead for Ryan

Let’s break this down. Ryan has a lot on his plate right now. While he’s currently based in New York to host Live with Kelly and Ryan, the thought of moving back to Los Angeles is definitely on his mind. It’s not a decision he’s taking lightly, though. There’s a lot at stake, and it’s a move that would affect not just his career but also his personal life. The source adds that Ryan needs to carefully weigh his options before making any permanent changes. It’s clear that this is a big decision for him, and he’s not rushing into it.

Shayna Taylor: The Supportive Partner

Thankfully, Ryan doesn’t have to worry about how a potential move might affect his relationship with Shayna. The couple, who have been on-again, off-again since meeting in 2013, currently share Ryan’s luxurious Manhattan apartment. Shayna, who is 28 years old, is completely supportive of whatever decision Ryan makes for his career and personal well-being. She understands that sometimes you have to do what’s best for yourself, and she’s all in on that.

Ryan’s Health and Career Balance

Ryan, who is 45, has had some health concerns recently. Back in May, he skipped an episode of Live due to exhaustion. His rep explained to People at the time that Ryan was adjusting to the “new normal” and trying to find a better work-life balance. Juggling multiple on-air jobs during the pandemic has been tough, and Ryan needed some rest. It’s clear that he’s been thinking about what’s best for his health and how he can continue to thrive in his career.

Moving Back to L.A.: A Possibility

With Ryan working from his L.A. home during the pandemic, it’s had him reconsidering his life in New York. An insider shared with Closer that Ryan feels healthier in L.A. and is considering a permanent move back there. He has nothing against New York, but the thought of returning to L.A. has been on his mind. The source revealed that Ryan would like to move back to Los Angeles permanently, but there are some factors to consider, especially with his cohost, Kelly Ripa.

Kelly Ripa’s Reaction

While Ryan’s move makes sense to him, Kelly might feel differently. Sources say Kelly would be “absolutely” upset if Ryan decided to relocate. It’s no secret that Kelly has had issues with past cohosts, and she truly loves working with Ryan. She doesn’t want to replace him, but the reality is that filming Live from two different locations isn’t ideal. The show is only doing that because of the pandemic, and once things return to normal, everyone expects the show to go back to its usual format. However, sources close to Ryan deny rumors that he’s looking for a change. Ryan will return to the set of Live! once production resumes in New York.

Can It Work?

Despite the challenges, Ryan and Kelly’s chemistry works best when they’re side-by-side. ABC wants both hosts in the same room, but the network might consider making adjustments if Ryan moves. It’s “doable,” according to one insider, but it won’t be easy. Still, because Ryan and Kelly get along so well, the network might find a way to make it work.

No matter what Ryan decides, one thing is for sure: Shayna will always have his back. Love and support like that can make all the difference during life’s big decisions.
