Meredith Seacrest

Meredith Seacrest is an American producer, probably famous for Live With Kelly (1988) and The Buried Life (2010). Rather than her profession, she is popular as the single sister of Ryan Seacrest, an American radio personality.

Born in 1980, as Meredith Marie Seacrest, this TV producer holds American citizenship and is of white ethnicity. Her father's name is Gary Lee Seacrest whereas her mother is Constance Marie Zullinger. As of 2020, her age is around 40.

Most Awaited Journey of Love 

The executive director and COO at the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, Meredith officially became the wife of a senior executive at TOMS, Jimmy Leach. They walked down the aisle on the 5th of November 2016 on Saturday with close friends and family only.

The function was held in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Bride, 40 Seacrest stunned in a strapless Vera Wang gown whereas both the groom and the elder brother, Ryan both donned a bright blue suit from his own collection named Seacrest style.

Likewise, all groomsmen wore suits and accessories from the Ryan Seacrest Distinction. The television host and producer even posed for a group image with the sister and her six bridesmaids. Moreover, the bridal party sported TOMS shoe footwear. 

The producer who holds the degree from Grady College of the University of Georgia in Journalism and Mass Communication now lives a happy life along with her love of life, Leach. Meanwhile, there is no sign of divorce between them.

Overwhelmed Poet for Ryan to be a 'Man of Honor' 

As we already mentioned above, Meredith is the only sister of the co-host of Live with Kelly and Ryan, Ryan Seacrest. The sister and brother duo, therefore, definitely have a beautiful connection because they are very close to each other.

In November 2016, the former host of ESPN's Radical Outdoor Challenge stepped up over the weekend to help with the big wedding bash of his sis Meredith as the Man of Honor. In an extravagant marriage ceremony, the two siblings even worked together.

Actually, last year, sister Meredith asked Ryan to be her man of honor in her wedding through a poem posted on Instagram. She said:

 “You’ve been by my side all of my life and I wouldn’t want you anywhere else when I become a wife. I’m so lucky to have you as a brother, and couldn’t imagine celebrating with anyone other. So basically what I’m trying to say… Will you be my Man of Honor on my special day?!”

The mega-producer, who recently ended his 15-season run hosting "American Idol," even shared the wedding pictures of Meredith and Jimmy, claiming that he is very proud to be a honor. Therefore, we can obviously see the pure love of the two siblings.
