The guest roster on Live with Kelly and Mark has been nothing short of stellar recently. Today’s installment yet again featured captivating appearances, with a special twist in the form of a guest co-host.
Stepping into Kelly Ripa’s shoes, Michelle Buteau teamed up with Mark Consuelos for this morning’s Live episode. Ripa has been out of commission due to her recovery journey after undergoing gum graft surgery. It’s noteworthy that this week’s episodes have already been recorded.
A reliable insider from the production team revealed that the Live crew sticks to their tradition of a summer hiatus, with regular season programming extending to August 28. Viewers can anticipate some fresh content even during this break, while the curtain will rise on Season 39 of Live with Kelly and Mark on September 8, marking Ripa’s much-anticipated live return post-surgery.
Earlier this summer, Buteau experienced the excitement of co-hosting at the Hot Topics Table on The View, seizing the opportunity when Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, and Ana Navarro were all away.
Today’s Live episode will also see Walt Willey and Patina Miller gracing the show. Tomorrow promises a compelling lineup as well, featuring guest co-host Carrie Coon alongside a star-studded drop-in by Furious actress Emmy Rossum.
