NEW YORK — Ryan Seacrest plans to leave ABC’s “Live with Kelly and Ryan” this spring, he announced on Thursday’s episode.
Seacrest has hosted the New York-set morning show with Kelly Ripa since 2017. Ripa’s husband, Mark Consuelos, will take over as her full-time co-host.
“It was a tough, tough decision,” Seacrest said. “Last year, we spoke and I made the decision to make this my last season as co-host with Kel here on ‘Live with Kelly and Ryan,’ which is bittersweet.”
