Three decades and he was interviewing the likes of Barack Obama, Tim Cook, and Bill Gates.

Is David Muir Married?

It seemed David Muir has worked quite hard to keep his private life out of the public eye. Because judging from is such a demanding job and that to in the media, it must not have been easy peasy.

Nevertheless, reports everywhere in online magazines meant he is not yet married.

Also, he has sure been surrounded by romance rumors with a few people.

Circa October 2015, Kate Dries penned an article for Jezebel titled, “Report Indicates My Boyfriend David Muir Is a ‘Monster.’” The part where she mentioned David read:

“David and I connected right from the start. ‘I thought Peter Jennings was the James Bond of evening news,’ he told me on our first date. I tried to remain calm because (little did he know) Peter was my first love and I didn’t want to make David feel uncomfortable. But Peter would quickly be pushed far from my mind during my courtship with David. I mean, will you look at this man?”

And, that was that. The matter was never discussed afterward.

Again, the same year, David, was rumored to be in a relationship with ABC colleague Gio Benitez.

The hearsay stories had emerged after the two were photographed together several times. But this time, Gio put an end to the rumors after he and his boyfriend Tommy DiDario got engaged and married the next year.
