Ryan Seacrest's friends are allegedly worried his girlfriend might be a "gold digger."
The 'American Idol' host, 39, started dating 24-year-old fitness trainer Shayna Taylor last summer, but his close pals reportedly think she is only using him for his connections and fortune.
A source told the National Enquirer: "His buddies are urging him to take his time."
Shortly after she was photographed holidaying with Ryan, who split from 'Safe Haven' actress Julianne Hough in April 2013 after three years of dating, in Uruguay and Argentina last July, Shayna landed a modelling contract with Wilhelmina Models, and now hopes to carve out a career as a fitness guru in Los Angeles.
The insider said: "Shayna is already posting healthy recipes and diets to her Instagram page, but she'd like to get deals for a cookbook and fitness training book, and maybe even her own website.
"Ryan needs to look before he leaps."
Meanwhile, Ryan's mother Connie is said to be desperate for him to settle down and start a family.
The source said: "Connie wants her only son to give her a grandchild in the worst way."

Kerry Katona's fiancé was hospitalised under the Mental Health Act on Wednesday evening (30.07.14).
George Kay was reportedly sectioned at John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for his own welfare after a female motorist called the police when she spotted the former rugby league player "running in and out of cars" in an agitated manner, screaming that someone was trying to kill him.
A spokesman for Thames Valley Police told The Sun newspaper: "Thames Valley Police can confirm that officers were called to a road in Chinnor shortly after 6pm following concerns for the welfare of a man.
"A 34-year-old man was detained at the scene and taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, where he was detained under the Mental Health Act. He was later discharged."
The Atomic Kitten singer, 33, declined to comment, but a neighbour, who asked not to be named, told the MailOnline: "It looked like he had been taking something like cocaine or ecstasy I think. He was behaving very strangely - actually it was quite frightening.
"A woman who was driving down the road was so upset by what he was doing that she stopped and dialled 999 for the police. It all happened at about 6pm on Wednesday evening and the police were here very quickly. It took quite a few of them to restrain him."
She added: "Then an ambulance arrived and the policemen climbed into the back with their prisoner and off they went. It was quite an unusual spectacle."
Kerry, who recently gave birth to her first child, Dylan-Jorge, with George and has four other children from previous marriages, gushed about her fiancé earlier this week, saying she had finally found the "right man."
She said: "I know this time I'm marrying the right guy and I won't be doing it for the wrong reasons. I can't wait to be Mrs Kay.
"We've been together for two years but we feel like we've been together for ten. We've been through so much, but this time it's right."

Zoe Saldana claims she is a "bad influence" on her sisters, Mariel and Cisley.
The 36-year-old actress, who is reportedly expecting twins with husband Marco Perego, admits she has "almost 10" hidden tattoos on her body and is also responsible for many of her family members' inkings.
She said: "I am very proud to say I have assisted many friends and family, my sisters, to get tattoos. I get them drunk, I wine and dine them, I take them to the tattoo parlor, they come out with tattoos. The next day they're like, 'What the hell happened?!'
"I can convince you of getting a tattoo in the worst place possible. I am very convincing. That's why I've always been sort of the bad influence out of all the girls in my family."
Despite having no visible tattoos, the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star also told David Letterman on his late night chat show that her love of body art might not be a secret for much longer.
She said: "I'm running out of private places to put them on.
"My grandmother says that I look like a newspaper naked."
Shortly after she married Marco last year, he unveiled a portrait of her face on his forearm, but he also has an impressive collection of body art.
She said: "My husband has more. His are more exposed."

Kylie Jenner has got a new Range Rover ahead of her birthday.
The 16-year-old reality TV star - who will turn 17 on August 10 - shared a photograph of the expensive black vehicle, believed to have been a gift from her parents, Kris and Bruce Jenner, on Instagram today (31.07.14), and revealed she plans to have it customised ahead of the celebration.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' beauty captioned the image: "Just got this little beauty. Follow @spinimaging to see the transformation. #rangerover #progressstartsnow"
Kylie, who is reportedly dating Jaden Smith, received a $125,000 Mercedes SUV for her 16th birthday last year, shortly after passing her driving test.
She crashed the car less than three weeks later in Los Angeles, but no one was injured. She has also allegedly received multiple traffic tickets since getting her license, according to the MailOnline.
Her 18-year-old sister, Kendall Jenner, also received a $90,000 black Range Rover from Bruce and Kris for her 16th birthday in November 2011.
A source said at the time: "Kendall was thrilled and jumped right in the car with friends.
"She spent about 15 minutes in there checking everything out, oohing and aahing over the car. She was in the driver's seat and her friends were crowding around her inside the car."

Ne-Yo is suing his former accountant for $8 million.
The 'Closer' hitmaker, real name Shaffer Smith, has filed a new lawsuit against his one-time "manager, confidant, trusted adviser and friend" Kevin Foster in Manhattan's Federal Court in New York City, claiming he swindled him out of $4.5 million.
In court documents, obtained by the New York Daily News, the 31-year-old star says he agreed to let the accounting company Foster was working for handle all of his "business management and accounting needs," ensuring he "was financially situated as to maintain his accustomed lifestyle for the remainder of his life," after they were first introduced in 2005.
Foster subsequently left the firm to start his own company and Ne-Yo accompanied him, as they had "developed a personal relationship, with Smith eventually placing complete trust in Foster's handling Smith and his companies' finances and affairs."
But the 'Sexy Love' singer claims he later discovered that Foster had moved some of his money without his permission and when he hired another accountancy firm, they "uncovered instances of Foster engaging in self-dealing and inappropriate conduct," which allegedly included forging Ne-Yo's name on loan documents and investing the star's money into a struggling water company, without telling him that he was the president and CFO of the venture.
The Grammy Award-winning singer is seeking the return of the $4.5 million, in addition to the $3.5 million fees he paid Foster since 2005.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie exchanged romantic love letters when they were forced to be apart last year.
The 39-year-old actress, who has six children, Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and five-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, with her 50-year-old fiancé, says he was very supportive when she spent three months directing her upcoming biopic, 'Unbroken,' about World War II hero Louis Zamperini, in Australia, even though he was filming his upcoming film, 'Fury,' in London at the same time.
The brunette beauty told Australia's TV Week magazine: "He was supportive from a distance, and it was quite romantic in a way.
"We decided to be of that time, when we could imagine he was in the European theatre and I was in the Pacific theatre, and we wrote handwritten letters to each other that were very connecting for us, thinking of the people that were separated for months, if not years, at a time back then."
The 'Maleficent' actress recently admitted she plans to take on less work in front of the camera in the future, so she can focus on her family and her humanitarian work.
She said: "I'm not retiring completely, but I'm going to focus more on my writing, directing and my humanitarian work, so I will do less films and hopefully that will also make it possible to be very selective and do a few I feel really compelled to do. But I will be doing much less."

Jonathan Ross won't work in the US.
The 53-year-old talk show host has admitted he isn't ready to take 'The Jonathan Ross Show' across the pond as he doesn't feel he can compete with popular presenters Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel, who also front their own late night talk shows.
Speaking at the Cinemoi and Fashion Film Network's annual international awards in Los Angeles, he said: "The No. 1 guy at the moment is Jimmy Fallon. You wouldn't want to come out here and take on Jimmy. You're never going to be up there with him.
"And Jimmy Kimmel is doing great still.
"I don't have the appetite to conquer new territory. I am still really happy working in the UK."
Jonathan - who has hosted the ITV show since 2011 - has already turned down opportunities to crack the US, preferring to put the needs of his wife Jane Goldman and their three children, Betty, Honey and Harvey, first.
He explained: "Years ago I was offered a show here. We didn't come over because the kids were growing up and were happy at school. And we were really happy there.
"It's not really on my agenda, and they've got so much talent here - why would they need to look elsewhere? - they don't."
Although Jonathan won't be heading to America to advance his own career, he is prepared to make the move for his screenwriter wife, who helped pen 'X-Men: First Class' and 'Kick-Ass'.
He said: "I wouldn't consider moving here for work. I'd consider working here because my wife has so much work in the US now. She writes big movies for big studios.
"But really, our life is in the UK. It's where my kids go to school, where they are still."

Conan O'Brien refuses to follow celebrities on Twitter.
The 51-year-old talk show host randomly selected one person to follow in 2010 - fan Sarah Killen - and has yet to add to his list, often refusing celebrity pals who ask him to connect on the social networking site.
He exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I've had so many celebrities [ask] ... I ran into Slash a couple of years ago and Slash said, 'Hey man, follow me on Twitter!' and I said, 'No, I only follow one person.' And he's like, 'Who?', and I said, 'Sarah Killen', and he's like, 'Who's that?' and I go, 'She lives in Michigan.'
"I've had people that want me to follow, like Slash. They say, 'Will you follow me?' and I say, 'Can't do it. I'm committed to one person.' "
Conan changed the life of his lucky fan, who became a viral sensation and even had companies vying to pay for her wedding due to her internet infamy.
The irreverent star said: "When I met her she was single but now she's got kids, her whole life has changed since I met her. But I loved her, she was very straight-forward ... she was the perfect person to choose."
The 'Conan' host recently joined Tinder in a skit for his show, which also featured hunky actor Dave Franco, and he admits he is "fascinated" by the mobile phone app which allows users to find potential love matches based on common interests.
He said: "All my staff was on Tinder, so I had to find out what this is all about so I did that remote [skit] with Dave Franco. I was just fascinated by it - it's a new world. I don't know how I would have dealt with that if I was in my twenties, I wouldn't have had the nerve to put myself out there like that."
Conan's talk show is set to launch in the UK next week and it seems there's plenty of action behind-the-scenes as well as on camera.
Talking about his staff's Tinder habits, he quipped: "I think, yes, it is a big orgy, my show - you should get that out there, 'Come visit the set of Conan in Los Angeles because it is a non-stop orgy.' I'm not part of it because of my own inadequacies, but that's what it's like backstage."
Catch 'Conan' on new free to air channel truTV (11pm Monday-Thursday from 4th August) - channel number 68, the home of larger-than-life characters in real situations.

Drew Barrymore's half-brother doesn't believe their half-sister committed suicide.
Jessica Barrymore was found dead in her car by a neighbour on Tuesday (29.07.14) with pills reportedly scattered around her but John Barrymore - who shared a father, late actor John Drew Barrymore, with his half-siblings - thinks she took an accidental overdose, rather than deliberately taking her own life, comparing the tragedy to the death of Heath Ledger, who overdosed on prescription medication in 2008.
He told the New York Daily News newspaper: "It looks like it was a drug misadventure. Mixing alcohol and pills. I seriously doubt she took her own life.
"There were some empty vodka bottles, a couple bags of meth and a variety of pills in the car. My guess is that it was the booze and pills, like with Heath Ledger.
"She visited her mom the day before, and her mom is almost gone. It was hard for her to see her. I doubt she tried to kill herself, though . . . I predict it will be that -- mixing booze and pills and taking too many.
"I'm going to miss Jessica. She was a kindred spirit. She knew laughing is what saves us all."
John admitted the half-siblings barely knew one another and had met together only once to scatter their father's ashes.
Following the news of Jessica's death, 39-year-old Drew - who has two daughters, Olive, 22 months, and Frankie, three months, with her husband, Will Kopelman - paid tribute to her older half-sibling.
She said in a statement:"Although I only met her briefly, I wish her and her loved ones as much peace as possible and I'm so incredibly sorry for their loss."

Kate Hudson says Heath Ledger was her best ever on-screen kiss.
The 35-year-old actress - who has sons Ryder, 10, from her marriage to Matt Bellamy, and Bingham, three, with fiance Matt Bellamy - has shared smooches with some of Hollywood's hunkiest leading men including Matthew McConaughey and Billy Crudup but admitted her late 'Four Feathers' co-star was her favourite.
Speaking on 'Watch What Happens Live' with Andy Cohen, Kate said: "I would say my favourite one was Heath [Ledger. That was pretty excellent."
"He was just so beautiful and sweet and gentle. I would say that, I look back at all of the... and that was really... he was lovely."
Heath died from an accidental overdose in 2008 at the age of just 28.
When speaking of her favourite on-screen kiss, Kate didn't upset her 'Wish I Was Here' co-star and director Zach Braff, who was right beside her, even though she didn't mention him.
The caller who posed the question to her made sure that Zach wouldn't feel left out by saying: "Who's been your best kisser from all your movie stars, or your costars? Excluding Zach, cause I'm sure Zach is a good kisser."
A grateful Zach replied: "Thank you, darling! Thank you for saying, 'present company excluded.'"

Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden have "already discussed marriage".
Although the 41-year-old actress and the 35-year-old musician have only been dating for a few months, they are already practically living together and friends don't think it will be long before we hear wedding bells.
A source told PEOPLE: "It's early, but they have talked about marriage.
"Benji spends so much time at Cameron's that it seems he now kind of lives there. They look very happy together ... Cameron hasn't looked this happy for years."
Benji met Cameron's family during a recent trip to Florida and the actress was delighted to show off the rocker.
A friend said: "It seemed important to Cameron that Benji met her family, and she looked very proud to introduce him to everyone. They were very sweet to each other, constantly kissing and flirting. It was obvious that they had a great vacation."
Nicole Richie recently revealed she takes full "responsibility" for Benji and Cameron getting together.
The 32-year-old socialite - who is married to the former Good Charlotte rocker's twin brother Joel Madden - "approves" of the couple's new relationship and admitted she was the one who got them together.
Asked if she set them up, she said: "Yes. I'm going to take responsibility for everything!"
Nicole - who has children Harlow, six, and Sparrow, four, with Joel - is delighted her brother-in-law has found happiness with the 'Sex Tape' actress in recent months.
She added: "I approve of anything that's going to make Benji happy.
"I am a devoted sister-in-law. I'm happy for anyone who is happy, and I want everyone to be surrounded with love."

Leonardo DiCaprio and Lindsay Lohan cheered on Orlando Bloom after he tried to hit Justin Bieber.
The 'Lord of the Rings' actor reportedly swung a punch at the 'Baby' singer at Cipriani restaurant in Ibiza in the early hours of Wednesday (30.07.14) morning and other guests at the bash at the eatery found the incident amusing.
Anastasia Skolkova, a model and journalist from Spain who witnessed the incident, told the Daily Mirror online: "When Orlando punched Bieber, everyone started clapping. People were shouting, 'What a show! Justin and Orlando fighting. What a show!' Lindsay [Lohan] was laughing. It was amazing.
"The whole table he and DiCaprio were on were clapping. Afterwards, I don't know if people were congratulating Orlando or trying to calm him down."
Although Orlando - who had been having dinner with Leonardo before the scuffle - threw the first punch, Justin was thrown out as he allegedly started it by mouthing off about Orlando's ex-wife Miranda Kerr, who the singer was romantically linked with while they were still married.
Anastasia said: "He was thrown out of the place, and then Orlando continued the party. After about 10 minutes, Orlando also went away. DiCaprio and some other friends stayed behind."
And while Lindsay initially found the altercation hilarious, she reportedly did try to calm Justin down as he left.
Anastasia said: "Lindsay Lohan tried to get Bieber a little bit calm when he went away to the exit but he was like, 'I don't want to speak to anyone.' "
