Ryan Seacrest stepped down as co-host of ‘Live with Kelly and Ryan’ on April 14, 2023. After almost six years on the show, Ryan was replaced by Kelly Ripa’s husband, Mark Consuelos.
Kelly, Mark & Ryan shared the announcement on ‘Countdown to Oscars 95: The Red Carpet Live,’ as Kelly said, “Nothing will change between the three of us, it’s just Ryan will get to have his coffee later.” Meanwhile, Ryan shared the news on his own Instagram, writing, “I’m going to miss my work wife and all the laughter we share. When I signed on to host Live in 2017 it was meant to be for 3 years, but I loved the job and working with Kelly so much that I extended my time and last year I made the decision to stay on for one more final season. I’ve been grateful to be able to share a cup of coffee with our viewers everyday, one of the best parts of the gig.” You can see all of the photos of Ryan on the show throughout the years here.
