Ryan Seacrest on Live with Kelly and Ryan showed Cincinnati -- and WCPO -- some love.

Thursday’s episode of “Live with Kelly and Ryan” showed Cincinnati and Channel 9 some love.

Somehow, an exchange between Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest ended in discussing Nick Lachey and WCPO anchor Ryan Houston.

Ripa, referring to Lachey, said, “He’s literally -- he’s Cincinnati royalty.”

This prompted Seacrest to say, “He and the anchor from the noon and 4 p.m. on Channel 9 are the two … are the two.”

“@NickLachey is #Cincinnati royalty! Him and the noon & 4 o clock anchor on @WCPO “ - @RyanSeacrest knows what’s up!!! (Sup @RyanWCPO ) 🎉🎊😄 #VideosMomSendsMe pic.twitter.com/6LhHA3aX7z
