Ryan Seacrest Fans Are Emotional After He Shares Huge News About His Foundation: ‘I Am In Tears’

Earlier this month, Ryan Seacrest went back to the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to celebrate the grand re-opening of the very first Seacrest Studios – and everyone was understandably very emotional about the “full circle moment.”

The 49-year-old American Idol host opened the first of the Seacrest Studios in his hometown of Atlanta, Georgia back in November 2010, as a way to give the patients a chance to explore the world of media. He has since opened up a total of 14 locations around the country through his philanthropic Ryan Seacrest Foundation, and recently went back to the first Atlanta location to give it a makeover and update it with the latest technology.

The Wheel of Fortune host documented the process on Instagram on October 11th, and wrote: “We’re proud to be back where it all began! The re-opening of our very first Seacrest Studio at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta was a huge success. Seeing this studio—bigger and better than ever—was a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come in 14 years and the lasting impact programming has on patients and families.”

The former Live with Kelly and Ryan host also shared a similar update on October 12th, captioning another video: “It was more than just a reopening, it was a homecoming. And it was moments like this that made today so special.”

Fans got very emotional in the comments. “Awesome tearjerker,” wrote one fan, followed by a red heart emoji. “Ryan you continue to amaze me with your compassion and kind,” gushed a second, also followed by the red heart emoji, as a third exclaimed: “A full circle moment. I am in tears. This is so special!”

“Awesome story! Ryan you’re a wonderful person,” praised a fourth, followed by the popular red heart emoji. “Made me cry,” added a fifth fan, followed by three red heart and three hand praising emojis.
