Ryan Seacrest has revealed that his biggest relationship red flags often come down to simple manners and morning routines, admitting he even uses a secret “exercise test” to vet potential partners.
Speaking on his radio show On Air with Ryan Seacrestthe 51 year old man Wheel of Fortune The star explained that he pays special attention to how a date interacts with the world when they go for a run or bike ride.
For Seacrest, not acknowledging a stranger’s “hello” on a path is a major warning sign, as he believes that being polite to people you pass is a fundamental trait he looks for in a partner.
Beyond basic social etiquette, the seasoned broadcaster has very specific requirements for how a loved one should handle their mornings.
He considers it a huge green flag if a partner drinks their coffee black, specifically asking them to avoid “dairies and such” in their brew.
Despite playful reactions from his co-hosts, Tanya Rad and Sisanie, Seacrest doubled down on his preference for another black coffee drinker.
He also has no patience for abrupt awakenings, insisting that a “hardcore alarm” is a drag; instead, he prefers a “chime” or a pleasant sound to start the day.
Timing is another area where Seacrest has a hard limit, stipulating that anyone interested in him must be able to get ready in less than 27 minutes.
He was pretty specific about the number, noting that while 30 minutes is too long and 25 is perhaps too short, 27 is the sweet spot for a green flag.
Having spent more than an hour waiting for partners in the past, he wondered what people could do in front of a mirror for 90 minutes.
He joked that by the time some people are finished, the “window” for the day’s activities is completely closed and it’s time for him to get back to work.
These dating reports come as Seacrest has been single for some time following his quiet split from model Aubrey Paige in April 2024, after three years together.
