<p id=”par-1_67″><em><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/american-idol”>American Idol</a> </em>host Ryan Seacrest split with his girlfriend of several years, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/american-idol-body-language-expert-says-ryan-seacrest-acts-non-committal-girlfriend-aubrey-paige.html/”>model Aubrey Paige</a>, in April 2024. While the couple seemingly had a great relationship they announced their breakup. Now, Seacrest looks happier than ever with his fans, and Paige has a divisive message to her “haters” online. Here’s what Seacrest’s <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/are-kelly-ripa-and-ryan-seacrest-really-friends.html/”><em>Live With Kelly and Ryan </em>co-host, Kelly Ripa</a>, once said about the couple breaking up.</p>

<p id=”par-2_29″><em>American Idol </em>host <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/who-has-ryan-seacrest-dated.html/”>Ryan Seacrest started dating</a> Aubrey Paige in 2021. They went public with their romance in May of that year and opted to keep their romance private.</p>
<p id=”par-3_15″>“[They are] very happy together and doing great,” an insider told <a href=”https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/pictures/ryan-seacrest-model-aubrey-paige-petcoskys-relationship-timeline/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Us Weekly</a> at the time.</p>
<p id=”par-4_50″>Of course, the public went wild over Seacrest and Paige’s 23-year age gap. But Seacrest’s co-host on <em>Live With Kelly and Ryan</em>, Kelly Ripa, adored Paige. Ripa commented on meeting Paige on the show in April 2022. She said that she worried that Seacrest may never find his perfect partner.</p>
<p id=”par-5_55″>“We were starting to be like, ‘Maybe he doesn’t have a special person, and maybe we should check in on him more often?’” Ripa said on the show. She then told Seacrest that she would “go into seclusion” if he and Paige ever called it quits on their relationship. Seacrest considered the comment a compliment.</p>
<p id=”par-6_15″>Unfortunately, Seacrest and Paige broke up in April 2024. It’s unclear what caused the split.</p>
<p id=”par-7_38″>“After three beautiful years together, Ryan and Aubrey have mutually decided to part ways,” a source close to the couple told <a href=”https://people.com/ryan-seacrest-aubrey-paige-break-up-after-3-years-exclusive-8638307″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>People</a>. “They plan to stay in each other’s lives as good friends and support one another’s endeavors.”</p>
