It’s true thatKelly RipaandDavid Muirdon’t just share the ABC online grid.
He’s even shouted Ripa and her husband out on hisInstagrammore than a few times.
“I remember when I first saw David Muir file a report for ‘World News Tonight.’

By that point, Muir had long since proven his journalistic skills.
Suffice to say, Ripa was impressed.
And I wrote: ‘Dude.

You looked amazing tonight.
Don’t know what was going on.
Looked kinda dangerous where you are.

But just wanted to let you know that you looked amazing.
I had the volume down,'” (via Hello!).
Apparently, that’s where it all began!

“I’ve never baked him a cake,” Ripa admitted (viaHello!).
“He’s too … kind … shy about asking,” she told Seacrest.
“But this time he said, ‘I wouldn’t mind a cake.'”

Muir didn’t stop with just celebrating Ripa, though.
He shouted out Ripa’s husband, Mark Consuelos, in anInstagrampost for his birthday in 2019.
“Happy birthday @instasuelos,” Muir wrote.
“[Y]ou make every view better truly.”
As a journalist, Muir made a name for himself investigating and covering disasters.
Ripa presented Muir with the prestigious “Voice Award” at the 6th Annual Save the Children Illumination Gala.
“David Muir is such a baller,” Ripa said within minutes of the episode beginning.
It turns out, Ripa had initially communicated with her journalist best friend on his “work” phone.
“You used to [text] on the breaking news phone,” Muir revealed.
Proving how seamless their friendship is, the two kept on bantering for the rest of the show.
