David and Rebecca Muir’s wedding featured many classic elements of a traditional celebration—vows, a floral arch, joyful dancing, and touching family moments. However, what stirred controversy was a persistent rumor: that David had married his sister.

When searching for “Rebecca Muir,” one of the top results links her to David Muir as his older sister. And that part is true—David does have an older sister named Rebecca Muir. But the confusion arises from the fact that his wife shares the same first name.

To clarify: David did not marry his sister. His sister, Rebecca “Becky” Muir, is known for running an organic farm in Borodino, upstate New York. She has no involvement in his romantic life. On the other hand, David’s wife—also named Rebecca—has a completely different background. She is a human rights lawyer, and her maiden name has not been publicly disclosed.

The mix-up appears to stem from the name similarity and online search results that conflate the two Rebeccas. Once separated by context, the facts become clear: David Muir’s wedding, while intimate and meaningful, was not scandalous or inappropriate. The viral rumor is based solely on coincidence and misinformation.
