In a 2023 Instagram post, Dreyer had expressed how much she wished her family lived closer to her, calling the distance from her brother Mike “heartbreaking.

” But as she showed on her dad’s 80th birthday, the Dreyer family knows how to make every reunion count.

Dylan Dreyer has always been open about her deep relationship with her father, often referring to him as her “buddy” and a “truly caring family man.

” In an article she penned for TODAY back in 2014, Dreyer explained that Father’s Day for her isn’t about gifts but about making memories with her dad, sharing quality time, laughter, and good food.
