And in 2016, Strahan told People magazine: "At one point I think we were friends. I don't know what happened in the end." "I'm pretty sure there are trained professional snipers with tranquilizer darts in case I go too far off message." In an attempt to bury the hatchet, Strahan told The New York Times in 2020 that he tried to schedule biweekly meetings with his former co-host, but was denied. Regarding his transition from the NFL to the small screen, he said: "In television, I've had jobs where I got there and felt, Wow, I didn't know I was supposed to be a sidekick.

I thought I was." come here to be a partner." After revealing that they were no longer on speaking terms, Strahan said, "I don't hate her. I respect her for what she can do in her job." The late Regis Philbin held the Guinness World Record for most hours on American television and shared the spotlight with Ripa for ten years on Live with Regis and Kelly. Ripa would become her successor in the series she launched in 1983, when it was called The Morning Show. "Welcome to the start of a new show here on WABC-TV Channel 7, it's called The Morning Show.

During their stint as hosts together, Ripa revealed to The New York Times that Regis had a strict rule of not talking off camera and instead saved the magic for the show. But since his departure, more has come to light about their behind-the-scenes chemistry. The Insider: "I think I was angry when I left. I wasn't trying to get away from her." "Are you still in touch with Kelly Ripa? Not really, no." The strained relationship between Ripa and Philbin was nothing like her connection with former Live co-host Kathie Lee Gifford. In 2019, Philbin told Today: "Kathie Lee, do you want to know that The best part of my life, my TV life, was the 15 years I spent with you, from 1985 to 2000.

We remained friends throughout the game and it was a lot of fun." Philbin's estranged relationship with Ripa suggests that the co-hosts of They didn't click outside the studio all their lives.

On a 2016 episode of his SiriusXM show, Stern said of Ripa: "I can't play hooky on you. own show." In October 2019, the host mentioned to guest Jimmy Kimmel that he suspected foul play between Ripa and Regis led to Philbin's departure from Live with Regis and Kelly, when he suggested, "Don't you think they should have Regis on that show once a year?

At least a year? I think he would have liked to at least be associated in some way with the show and remind people that he's the guy who started all this." "People say there are problems." "There's no problem." "Well, I hear and I read…” “She couldn't be happier.” “Seriously. And what about you?" It's worth noting that Stern and Ripa were once friends: Ripa not only attended Stern's 2008 wedding, but, as People magazine noted, her husband Mark Consuelos served as officiant. Rosie O'Donnell has never been a fan of Ripa. In the tell-all feature, Ladies Who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of The View, O'Donnell said: "Kelly Ripa is bad.

I wanted to have this weird fight." O'Donnell also alleged that when they meet in public, Ripa avoids eye contact. Their issue dates back to a 2006 episode of Live with Regis and Kelly that O'Donnell brought up on Ladies Who Punch. On one occasion, when guest co-host Clay Aiken put his hand over Ripa's mouth, Ripa told him the move was inappropriate, adding, "I don't know where that hand has been, honey. When this moment came up as a topic." on The View, O'Donnell called the comment, quote, "homophobic," and explained, "If it was a guy who didn't question his sexuality, she would have said something different.

But in the fall of 2017, they became rivals when Megyn Kelly Today aired during the same time slot as Live with Kelly and Ryan.

With Kelly stepping away from political coverage, some speculated that she was targeting Live's audience. But as Live continued to dominate the ratings, an industry insider told Page Six that NBC's hiring of Kelly wasted her talents and the company's money. In 2018, Kelly's show was canceled just a year into her three-year contract. There were immediately rumors of a rivalry between Kelly and Ripa. It's worth mentioning that at the time, Gossip Cop reported, "There are elements of truth, but the story is ultimately misleading." While a feud between the two hosts was never confirmed, some may wonder why Kelly distanced himself from politics to emulate a style similar to Live.

Ripa and Jessica Seinfeld were once best friends. So much so that in 2014, the two went on a summer vacation to Greece with their husbands, Mark Consuelos and Jerry Seinfeld. Ripa even celebrated Jessica's 43rd birthday with her. And Jessica even posted on Instagram once: "When God gives you another sister with a different last name." But at some point, this brotherly friendship failed. Both sides have reportedly been silent about their friendship for years.

In 2017, a source told Blind Gossip: "They hate each other now. If you see them in person, don't ask what happened to their friendship. They'll just turn their backs on you and walk away without answering. It left their mutual friends in the awkward position." position of having to choose sides. It's no secret that Ripa has been a longtime critic of The Bachelor and its spinoffs. She has openly disapproved of the show's format that pits a group of women against each other to fight over a guy. She said in early 2019: "You know how I feel about the show, it disgusts me." "All you women see that disgusting, disgusting spectacle." Ripa's comments about the series caught the attention of Bachelor Nation and her bosses, when host Chris Harrison weighed in on Twitter: "Watch out, Bachelor Nation is coming after you and your 'gross' Monday night habit." The show's creator, Mike Fleiss, weighed in, tweeting, "Easy, The Bachelor franchise pays your salary!" That's when Grey's Anatomy actress Ellen Pompeo criticized Fleiss on Twitter, writing, "It's okay.

Your show pays NO salary. Also, we don't attack successful women on our network and men certainly can't take credit." of his success. Don't do it. Get me started on your show because I'm a savage #bachelorsoooowhite." Season 23 Bachelor Colton Underwood posted his own response, after Ripa called the series, quote, "disgusting" and "creepy." In a tweet now deleted, wrote: “How mad is Kelly Ripa going to be when The Bachelor wins an Emmy this year? #ThankYouForYourConsideration." The guy who won the 2019 MTV Movie & TV Award for Most Memeable Moment told Us Weekly: "It was all so much fun. We're both at ABC, so I don't take it too personally.

It really isn't." "It's such a big deal that it's just blown out of proportion." But Ripa's comments shouldn't have taken Underwood by surprise. When the former Bachelor In Paradise contestant was a guest on Live With Kelly and Ryan to Earlier that year, Ripa had no qualms about criticizing the show or jokingly questioning her involvement in the series. "You don't have to do this. You're a lovely human being." "But, Kelly, I had a lot of fun." In 2012, actor Christopher Walken appeared on Live with Kelly and Michael to promote Seven Psychopaths, and the interview generated a bit of drama.

When Walken revealed that his character kidnaps dogs for ransom, including a dog belonging to a gangster, Ripa responded, "But the gangster's dog is uh, I mean, if he's a gangster, he'd have to be a dangerous pitbull type of dog, right." ?" This assumption didn't sit well with animal-loving actors Kaley Cuoco and Wil Wheaton. The Star Trek: The Next Generation actor tweeted: "I'm not a gangster. My friend is not a gangster. My dog ​​Seamus is not dangerous. I couldn't be more wrong. I hope to do some research and spend some time with a Pit Bull." and correct the misleading impression it gave to millions of people. "I've always had a connection with all animals." "You know, they don't have a voice.

Maybe that's where I feel like we need to give everyone some kind of voice." In a since-deleted tweet, Cuoco also asked, "Did Kelly Ripa really say 'all wells are dangerous' on her show this morning?" But the commotion on social media did not ruin the relationship between Ripa and Cuoco. In a now-deleted tweet, The Big Bang Theory star assured fans: "Ok, I'm NOT in a war. We've been friends for years and I adore her! Just love her, my global pitbull family and my owners!" Check out one of our most recent videos right here!
