Despite an "awkward moment" this morning between Ripa and her Live co-host, People magazine reports that she fully supports Seacrest following a former co-worker's allegations of sexual harassment and abuse. People further reports that "spokespeople for both American Idol and iHeartMedia are also in full support." Seacrest's girlfriend, Shayna Taylor, also expressed her support via an Instagram post this morning. "You are the most respectful, well mannered, civil, gracious, loving, kind human being," she wrote. "I have known you for 6 years and every day you impress me with your kindness. Not only to me or your friends and family, but most importantly in your work environment. You have worked SO hard to be where you are and you deserve it." ALSO: E!'s investigation of Seacrest included the male former co-worker who spoke anonymously to Today about witnessing alleged misconduct.
