George Stephanopoulos was feeling nostalgic as he looked back at the past decade of his life this week.
The popular Good Morning America anchor took to Instagram as the latest celebrity to participate in the 2016 trend and posted several photos from ten years ago.
These included several images of the star - who tends to sport a clean shaven look - with a full beard.

He also chose several snapshots featuring his wife, Ali Wentworth, including an image of them dressed up while attending a ball.
George included some photos taken from GMA too, both pictured with his co-stars and backstage. A lot has happened to George since 2016.

He also became an empty nester, as both his daughters left home to attend college. Their oldest, Elliott, graduated from Brown's University in 2025, while their youngest daughter Harper is a student at Vanderbilt University in Nashville.

During an interview on Live with Kelly and Mark, George opened up about his daughters briefly coming back to visit. He said: "They're home, our oldest daughter Elliott, she was also in London this semester, she just got back."

He explained: "Because we had kids right when we got married, so this was the first time we were alone together in the house," but maintained: "It was pretty great."

The couple have also adopted two new dogs following the loss of their beloved older dogs, Cooper and Daisy. In 2025, George and Ali adopted a golden retriever, Fig, followed by a dachshund puppy called Stanley.
