George Stephanopoulos<\/a> is very on trend. Like the rest of the internet, the 64-year-old journalist took to Instagram to share photos from 2016<\/a>. The post marks a rare departure from his buttoned-up broadcast persona.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To his 208k Instagram followers, George wrote: “I hear people are posting photos from 2016.” He shared memories from the trendy year with his wife and children, one snapshot from a beach day with his daughter Harper.<\/p>\n

The Good Morning America<\/a><\/em> co-host is known for his political prowess. Before his career as a journalist, George was a key architect of the 1992 Clinton campaign and later served as the White House Communications Director<\/a>. His transition from the center of politics to the GMA<\/em> anchor desk in 2009 proved to be a successful career pivot. He now hosts GMA<\/em> alongside Robin Roberts<\/a> and Michael Strahan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

George’s life off screen as a dad<\/h2>\n

From before 2016 to now, George has loved nothing more than being a father. The long-running news anchor shares 23-year-old Elliott<\/a> and 20-year-old Harper<\/a> with his wife Ali Wentworth<\/a>. The couple has been candid about the difficult shift to an empty nest.<\/p>\n

Elliott graduated from Brown University<\/a> in May 2025 and now works as an executive assistant to the CEO of Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis. After getting her diploma last year, Ali wrote in the caption: “She did it! Happy graduation to an incredible human being who has her father\u2019s brain and my legs. And if it was the other way around- she’d be screwed. Proud parents! All our children deserve an education!”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Harper is still in school, and seems to be following in her dad’s footsteps. She is a junior at Vanderbilt University<\/a> and is studying communication and media. Last summer, Harper worked at celebrity.land and wrote to LinkedIn: “I’m thrilled to share that [an article I contributed to] became the 5th most-read story on the celebrity.land website that day! Huge thank you to the amazing journalists and editors who welcomed me into the process and trusted me.”<\/p>\n

In August of last year, Ali and George helped Harper move back to school, writing: “Move in day\u2026 I’m sweating and assembling furniture with wrenches,” she wrote in her caption, adding: “Swipe to see what my daughter set up\u2026”<\/p>\n

As both of the couple’s daughters are now out of the house, they adopted a puppy to make things a little less quiet. George and Ali introduced Fig<\/a>, a golden retriever, on GMA<\/em> in July. “If she wasn’t adopted, she probably would have spent her life in a cage as a breeder \u2013 and I know what that feels like!\u00a0<\/p>\n

She continued: “She is really sweet. She was covered in ticks and fleas, but not anymore. And we really wanted to adopt another dog. I wanted a boy because we have two daughters, and yet this little girl just caught my eye.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
