Good Morning America anchor George Stephanopoulos is a proud "girl dad" alongside his wife, Ali Wentworth. Together, they've raised two incredible daughters—Elliott and Harper. Let’s dive into their world and get to know more about these amazing kids. Keep reading to uncover some heartwarming stories and insights into their lives.
Who Is George Stephanopoulos and Ali Wentworth’s Eldest Daughter, Elliott?
George Stephanopoulos and Ali Wentworth’s love story began in early 2001 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. It didn’t take long for sparks to fly—just two months after their first date, they got engaged. The couple tied the knot in November 2001 at the Greek Orthodox Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in New York City. From the very beginning, they dreamed of building a family together.
George and Ali welcomed their first child, Elliott, in September 2002. Like many celebrity parents, they’ve chosen to keep their kids out of the public eye, sharing family photos only on special occasions. But when they do share, it’s always heartwarming. In June 2017, George revealed that Elliott had been diagnosed with scoliosis—a condition where the spine curves abnormally. He took to Twitter to express his pride in her strength and resilience. "So proud of my daughter Elliott. Wearing her brace every day. #NationalScoliosisMonth," he wrote alongside a series of photos celebrating her courage.

Fast forward to June 2021, and Elliott hit another major milestone—her high school prom. Ali captured the moment with a sweet photo of Elliott in a stunning black gown, standing beside her proud dad. Just months later, Elliott headed off to college after recovering from a bout of COVID-19. As any parent knows, sending your child off to college is bittersweet. Ali opened up about their emotional goodbyes during an episode of her "Go Ask Ali" podcast. "We literally got through every scenario and so by the time I took her to college, we had our own weird therapy group together to comfort each other," she shared. "Now she’s really thriving at college." It’s clear that Elliott is following her own path and making her parents proud every step of the way.
Who Is George Stephanopoulos and Ali Wentworth’s Youngest Daughter, Harper?
Harper arrived in June 2005, turning Elliott into a big sister. Like her older sibling, Harper has inherited her mom’s playful spirit and quick wit. Together, the sisters have turned teasing their dad into an art form. During a December 2016 appearance on the show Harry, Ali joked about how George gets the brunt of their humor. "I have two girls. George is the only guy in the house. For some reason, he gets beat up constantly," she said with a laugh. "He is always wrong. He is an idiot. He is a loser—but in a loving way!"
She went on to explain, "Basically, my children get to say it for me, so I don’t have to say it. But it’s really funny. He could go off and win a Peabody Award, and as soon as he comes in, the girls are like, 'I can’t believe you wore that tie.' It’s just part of our dynamic, and it keeps things lively around here." It’s easy to see that Harper and Elliott have a close bond, one filled with laughter and love. They may tease their dad, but there’s no doubt they adore him just as much as he adores them.
