On this morning’s show, Ripa talked about her son, Joaquin, who just started high school and who has dyslexia, something Ripa has been open about in the past.

Then, she went on to explain how she “broke down crying” at a recent parent-teacher conference when she learned 14-year-old Joaquin is currently getting straight A’s in school.

“I see the way you handle career, and most importantly family… and it’s so impressive,” Seacrest said. “I am inspired by it, and anybody who knows you and watches you agrees. When my mom cries, it makes me cry, so when you cry, it makes me cry.”
