CNN‘s star anchor Kaitlan Collins is looking for love on the exclusive celebrity dating app Raya, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.
The anchor, 32, has a profile on the platform with the tongue-in-cheek description ‘Nick Saban was taken’, referring to the married 73-year-old sportscaster.
Kaitlan has five curated photos on her page, many of which have been taken from her Instagram feed.
In one image, she is seen looking glam in a one-shoulder maroon dress, while another shows her enjoying an Aperol spritz and keeping a low profile in a pair of sunglasses.
Another picture appears to show the New York-based broadcaster hard at work as she holds a microphone while sporting a serious demeanor.
Of course, she also revealed her caring side in one candid snap which saw her walking six fluffy dogs.

Kaitlin was previously in a relationship with Will Douglas, a Republican who ran for a seat in Texas’ House District 113 in 2020.
He faced off against Democrat Rhetta Bowers, and ultimately lost. According to his website, he now works as a pharmacist.
It’s not known when Kaitlan and Will’s romance came to an end, but they were last posted together in October 2021.
Raya is a celebrity dating app that is notoriously difficult to gain access to.
The exclusive, membership-based platform was launched in 2015 as a dating app for people from creative industries but has since turned into what one New York Times journalist described as ‘Illuminati Tinder’.
In the nearly 10-years since Daniel Gendelman created this secret society of ultra-desirable singletons, it has attracted A-list Hollywood stars, Grammy-winners, Olympic athletes, and influencers with millions of followers to boot.
Some of the most famous, rumored Raya users include Gladiator II star Paul Mescal, Magic Mike actor Channing Tatum, Oscar-winner Ben Affleck, and supermodel Cara Delevigne.
Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles reportedly met her husband, NFL star Jonathan Owens, on the app – much like Lily Allen, who swiped right on Stranger Things star David Harbour.

The reason celebrities flocked to Raya as soon as the ‘Soho House’ of dating apps opened its doors has to do with founder Daniel Gendelman’s almost-militant rules for entry that relegated hundreds of thousands of hopefuls to a never-ending waitlist.
Kaitlan, born in Prattville, Alabama, graduated from the University of Alabama in 2014 where she got her degree in political science and journalism.
After college, she landed a job at The Daily Caller as an entertainment reporter, and after she covered the 2016 presidential election, she was promoted to White House correspondent.
Soon, CNN began inviting her to appear on the show as a political commentator and by 2017, she left The Daily Caller and officially joined the publication full-time.

Throughout Trump’s presidency, Kaitlan – who is a registered independent – often traveled the world covering his international events.
Following the 2020 election, she was promoted to chief White House correspondent for CNN – making her the youngest chief White House correspondent in CNN history at age 28.
Then, in 2022, Kaitlan became a co-anchor on CNN This Morning alongside Don Lemon and Poppy Harlow.
One year later, she left CNN This Morning to host her own evening segment on the network, entitled The Source with Kaitlan Collins.
