“He’s not who you think he is off-camera” — David Muir’s SECRET WILD LIFE behind the camera REVEALED as fans discover his stunning home, longtime partner, and a hidden world of FAMILY and calm far from the chaos of breaking news

David Muir might be the face millions trust every evening, but what he keeps off-screen is what’s turning heads now. Beyond the newsroom, the ABC anchor leads a life few could’ve imagined—complete with a beautifully kept home, an unspoken love story, and a family dynamic quietly shielded from the public eye. Who is the man behind the headlines, and why has he worked so hard to keep this world hidden?

Step inside the quiet sanctuary of America’s most trusted anchor—read the full story now before it disappears from the feed.

ABC anchor David Muir is known for keeping his personal life fiercely private, but he recently gave fans a rare glimpse inside his jaw-dropping, $7.5 million New York City townhouse thanks to one special companion: his dog, Axel.

Muir, 51, frequently shares snaps of Axel lounging in different corners of his four-story West Village home, which he quietly put on the market for $7.5 million last month.

The historic 2,280 square foot townhouse, located on West 4th Street, dates back to 1877 and is packed with original charm from sky-high ceilings and marble fireplaces to oversized windows that flood the rooms with natural light.

He purchased the impressive home in 2013 for $4.2 million – the same year he succeeded Diane Sawyer as the host of World News Tonight, per Hello Magazine.

Over the years, he has renovated the space to have a more modern look, but has ‘kept and restored original details including hardware, flooring, fixtures and historic plaster medallions and moldings throughout,’ per Realtor.

Inside, the parlor floor boasts two grand living rooms with original moldings and seven-foot-tall French windows – perfect for Axel’s sunbathing sessions.

One of the spacious living rooms also features an ornate marble fireplace and soaring ceilings, creating an airy, elegant space.

The room also boasts bright white walls and dark furniture.

Downstairs, the open-plan kitchen and dining area features sleek marble countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, and access to a private garden, where Axel can roam around outside.

The three bedrooms upstairs are just as spacious.

The primary suite takes up the entire top floor and includes an office and a vintage-style bathroom with a clawfoot tub.

There’s also a full basement with laundry and storage.

Muir has lovingly updated the home over the years while preserving its character.

There’s central air, a Sonos sound system, and even approved plans for a rooftop terrace which is ideal for city views and cozy evenings.

The anchor became an internet sensation in recent months thanks to his youthful appearance, after photos of him in a tuxedo at an event went viral.

He reflected on his newfound internet fame to People earlier this month, explaining, ‘People will forward TikTok videos, but only because they are laughing out loud at them and making fun of me and saying, “When did you become Daddy?”‘

He continued: ‘Anyone who works with me knows that I am so uncomfortable even having to put on [a] tux.

‘The fact that I survive those events is still a surprise to me without looking like a total nerd.

‘So maybe it’s lost on me, but I guess ‘Daddy’ is better than the alternative.

‘I don’t know whether that happens when you hit 50 or what, but I’ll take it as a compliment, I think.’

Social media was completely distracted by Muir’s remark about his age and begged him to drop his skincare routine.
