As of today, the show will be known as &#8220;LIVE With Kelly &#038; Ryan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRyan is a quintessential broadcaster and at the top of his game,\u201d said Ripa. \u201cI am thrilled to start my mornings with him every day, and we are so fortunate at \u2018Live\u2019 to have him join the family.\u201d She added, \u201cRyan is a close friend and his star shines as brightly off camera as it does on. His tremendous success is only matched by his impeccable reputation. Plainly said, everyone loves him, and so will our daily viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot only is Kelly Ripa one of the most talented live hosts in broadcast TV, she\u2019s also become a very dear friend to me over the years,&#8221; added Seacrest. &#8220;It\u2019s consistently been my privilege and pleasure to work alongside Kelly with all her incredible talents, charm and humor \u2013 whether hosting the Disney Christmas Day Parade special with her a decade ago or guest co-hosting alongside her on \u2018Live,\u2019 it\u2019s always just been easy and fun to share a set with her, and we have a blast.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ripa has been featuring temporary co-hosts since Michael Strahan&#8217;s departure from the show last spring.<\/p>\n<p>TV provider listings had been advertising Chris Pratt for Monday&#8217;s episode, but the official &#8220;LIVE&#8221; website no longer confirms any interview guests.  It is unclear if plans for interviews were put on hold to make way for the Ryan Seacrest announcement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kelly Ripa has finally found a permanent co-host.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":81383,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[3716,8898,742],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&quot;Live With Kelly &amp; Ryan&quot; Confirmed As Ryan Seacrest Permanently Joins Show<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Last week, rumors broke that Ryan Seacrest would be permanently joining &quot;LIVE&quot; as Kelly Ripa&#039;s co-host.
