Ryan Seacrest Was Joined by a Surprise Guest Host on ‘Live’ Today

On today’s episode of Live with Kelly and Ryan, viewers may have noticed that Ryan Seacrest wasn’t joined by his fellow co-host, Kelly Ripa. Instead, he did the show with a very special guest co-host who needs no kind of introduction.

In a new photo posted on the Live Instagram page, Seacrest posed for a snap with his surprise co-host, who happened to be none other than TV personality Carson Kressley. And they were both joined by actor and producer Gerard Butler. The caption read, “@gerardbutler with @carsonkressley and Ryan!”

Fans absolutely loved seeing the Queer Eye alum return as the guest host and they shared their excitement in the comments section. One person wrote, “Love it when Carson is on- non-stop laughter & joy!” Another chimed in and said, “Love Carson!!!” with a red heart emoji. 

This is certainly not the first time Kressley has appeared as a guest host on Live. Back in August 2022, the Live IG account shared a video of Kressley coming on the show and filling in for Ripa. And before they kicked off the show, Seacrest just had to take a moment to compliment his stylish outfit.

Whenever Carson comes on Live and guest hosts, it’s always a fun time.
