Ryan has never wed though he has had a serious relationship with Julianne Hough and has been linked to Sophie Monk.

In December Ryan told ET that he did not feel any pressure from his family to get married. ‘Here’s the good news about my family: they are so distracted that my sister is having a baby in about three days, they don’t even know I exist,’ he said at the time.   

In 2017 he told Kelly Ripa he almost got married once. ‘I did get close and I didn’t do it and it was the right move. But I love the idea — and I know you’re going to ask me — of marriage because my parents have been married for 47 years, and so I have this thing — and you’ve been married 21.’
