George Stephanopoulos and Ali Wentworth have once again proven why they are one of the most beloved couples in morning news television. The Good Morning America anchor, 63, and his actress wife, 59, recently shared a heartwarming photo of themselves enjoying a serene moment on a waterfront vacation. The couple, who have been married for over two decades, were seen snuggling up for a selfie while sailing, both dressed in matching blue cardigans. The photo, posted by Ali on Instagram, quickly garnered a flood of heart emojis and affectionate comments from fans.
While the exact location of their getaway remains a mystery, the couple is known to frequent the picturesque lakes of upstate New York. Ali was in California on July 11 for a speaking engagement as part of the Newsmakers Lesher Speaker Series, adding to the couple’s busy schedule. Despite the Fourth of July holiday weekend, George had to spend part of it in Wisconsin for an interview with President Joe Biden, following a request from the White House.
The interview with President Biden was his first since a controversial debate performance against Republican opponent Donald Trump, and it has continued to elicit mixed reactions from voters. George’s dedication to his work is evident, but he also makes time for his family, especially during challenging times.
This summer, George and Ali’s daughters, Harper and Elliott, were home from college, providing much-needed support to their father after the passing of his father, Rev. Dr. Robert G. Stephanopoulos. The revered Greek Orthodox priest passed away at the age of 89 on June 19, prompting George to take some time off from his on-air duties to grieve with his family. The family traveled to Ohio for the funeral service, where they were joined by George’s siblings, Anastasia, Marguarite, and Andrew.
Rev. Dr. Robert G. Stephanopoulos was a beloved figure who touched countless lives through his ministry. His obituary highlighted his years of service and devotion to his family, stating, “Over more than half a century in the ministry, Father Robert touched countless lives. He counseled young couples contemplating marriage, celebrated their weddings and baptisms, cried with them at the funerals of loved ones. His legacy lives through them, his surviving children Mother Agapia, George, Marguarite, and Andrew — his daughter-in-law, Alexandra Wentworth, and his grandchildren Elliott and Harper Stephanopoulos.”
Ali Wentworth shared the news of her father-in-law’s passing on social media, posting several throwback photos in his honor. She wrote, “Reverend Robert George Stephanopoulos, PhD, Dean Emeritus Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Trinity passed away on June 19th. He was my father-in-law and I loved him dearly. He married us. He laughed with us. He married or baptized almost every Greek on the eastern seaboard. He was held in the highest regard. He will be missed by so many. Sagapo Father Bob.”
The couple’s ability to find moments of joy and togetherness, even during difficult times, is a testament to their strong bond. They often enjoy quick getaways from the city, finding solace in each other’s company and the beauty of nature.
