Kelly Ripa Set To Return to Live!, Execs Fear She May Go Rogue

Kelly announced her return in a late-night email to her staff.

“(Sorry for this late Friday night email). I wanted to thank you all for giving me the time to process this new information. Your kindness, support, and love has overwhelmed me,” she wrote. "We are a family and I look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday morning. Love, Kelly.”

Kelly has been absent from the daytime talk show since Wednesday, when she was a no-show following her co-host’s, Michael Strahan, announcement that he was leaving the show for a role on Good Morning America.

Michael's exit reportedly blindsided his co-host Kelly, leaving many to wonder when the 15-year veteran would return to the show.

While Kelly has not commented about Michael’s departure, Page Six reports that she is still not taking calls from Michael nor ABC execs, which has left her bosses fearing that she may go rogue on live TV.

A source told Page Six, “she ‘might do an Ann Curry’ and turn on her co-anchor. There clearly would be tension between her and Michael. He’s on the show for another four months, but could they even be on-air together? Nobody knows what is going to happen.”
