Alright, let's talk about Ryan Seacrest and Aubrey Paige Petcosky. If you’ve been keeping tabs on celebrity love stories, you’ve probably noticed this pair. Ryan, the charismatic TV host, seemed to have found something special with Aubrey, a stunning model. But like any good drama, fans started buzzing when the couple stopped posting photos together on social media. So, the big question is: Are they still together?
How Did Ryan and Aubrey Cross Paths?
Let me paint the picture for you. It was Memorial Day weekend in May 2021 when the sparks began flying—or at least that’s what the rumors suggested. They were spotted taking a little getaway to the Hamptons and then returning to New York City together. It wasn’t long before Closer confirmed the couple’s status, despite the 23-year age gap. But here's the thing: sometimes age is just a number, and it sure didn't stop these two from falling head over heels for each other.
Aubrey didn’t shy away from expressing her feelings either. In a heartfelt New Year’s Eve Instagram post, she gushed, “Safe to say the best part of 2021 was meeting the most incredible man.” She went on to wish everyone love, happiness, safety, and health in the new year. You could feel the connection through her words.

Fast forward six months, and the couple was spending their summer in the Hamptons, sharing their mutual love for cooking. Aubrey took to Instagram again, this time inviting everyone into their "test kitchen." She wrote, “Hello and welcome to our test kitchen...where two people obsessed with food try to teach each other how to cook.” She posted a photo of the two cuddled up on their patio, followed by a series of snapshots showcasing the meal they were making. It was clear they were enjoying their little slice of paradise.
Are Ryan and Aubrey Still Together?
On Valentine’s Day in 2023, Aubrey shared a sweet video filled with cozy photos of the couple. She captioned it, “Happy Valentine’s Day mi amor.” She went on to say, “Loving you has been the adventure of a lifetime. Cheers to many more laughs, sunrises, meals, and spontaneous adventures. Blessed to have the honor of loving you.” It seemed like everything was still on track. However, by the holidays, Ryan was noticeably absent from Aubrey’s Instagram posts. Fans couldn’t help but wonder, “Where’s Ryan!?” Aubrey never addressed the comments, leaving everyone guessing.
When Did Ryan and Aubrey Part Ways?
In April 2024, Ryan and Aubrey confirmed their split. A source close to the couple told People, “After three beautiful years together, Ryan and Aubrey have mutually decided to part ways.” They plan to remain friends and support each other’s endeavors. It was a bittersweet ending to a love story that seemed so promising.
Did They Ever Get Engaged?
Ryan has been open about wanting to find love in the past, even mentioning it on Live With Kelly and Ryan. When asked by Kelly Ripa if he had ever been close to getting engaged, Ryan admitted he “did get close.” It seemed like Aubrey might have been the one to finally get that elusive proposal. An insider told Closer in 2022, “Aubrey might be the one who surprises us all and finally gets that elusive proposal from Ryan.”
Before Aubrey, Ryan dated wellness influencer Shayna Taylor from 2013 to 2020. They remained friends after their breakup. His most high-profile romance was with Dancing With the Stars alum Julianne Hough. They dated from 2010 to 2013. Julianne later revealed in Redbook, “Every relationship, there was nothing wrong or bad, but there was nothing right.” It sounds like Ryan was searching for something special, and for a while, it seemed like Aubrey might have been it.
