Ryan Seacrest made a huge announcement on Live with Kelly and Ryan. After six long winters, he is leaving the show and New York City this Spring when American Idol goes live.
“I’m going to miss my work wife and all the laughter we share. When I signed on to host Live in 2017 it was meant to be for 3 years, but I loved the job and working with Kelly so much that I extended my time,e and last yea,r I made the decision to stay on for one more final season,” he wrote. “I’ve been grateful to be able to share a cup of coffee with our viewers everyday, one of the best parts of the gig.”
So who will replace him? Kelly Ripa’s husband, Mark Consuelos. She had this say to him, “Welcome home, or to the contractual obligation phase of our relationship.”
It will be interesting to see how the viewers will accept the couple on a daily basis. That, and if their marriage will survive working side by side five days a week, and then spending their off time together. That is a lot of time to spend with someone.
When it comes to Seacrest, I am sure he will find another television hosting gig soon. He always does. He always does.
