During the East Coast broadcast of Kelly and Ryan’s morning talk show, Ryan Seacrest announced his plan to step down as a co-host in a passionate declaration.
After presenting the famous show for six years, he wants to focus on other projects, such as American Idol.
With Michael Strahan’s departure, the media personality first appeared on the show in 2017. His first aim was to stay for three years, but he enjoyed co-hosting so much that he decided to wait for another three.
The goodbye is bittersweet for Ryan and the show’s viewers, but he believes it is time to move on.
Ryan Seacrest has been a beloved presence on daytime television for years, juggling his responsibilities as host of Live with Kelly and Ryan and American Idol with his life in Los Angeles.
His working relationship with Kelly Ripa continued beyond the show, forming a friendship. However, Seacrest revealed that he would leave the show to focus on other ventures.
Ripa praised Seacrest and their time together, referring to him as a family member. Mark Consuelos, Ripa’s husband and a frequent co-host, will step in more often to fill the space he leaves behind.
This shift represents a watershed moment for both Seacrest and Live with Kelly and Ryan, which entertained viewers for many years.
The famous talk show Live with Kelly, and Ryan is ending. Ryan Seacrest has said that Mark, the husband of real estate magnate Kelly Ripa, will take over the show after he has been in charge for a long time and has done an excellent job.
The show’s name will be “Live with Kelly and Mark” to reflect the host change.
While Ryan’s departure saddens us, we are excited for Mark to join the team and share his unique perspectives as a permanent co-host. We wish Ryan the best of luck in his future efforts!
