Ouch! What a way to start your day!
This morning, Regis Philbin made the stunning announcement that after 28 years on the air, he’s decided to retire from the Live!. America was shocked, but no one more so than Kelly Ripa, since she was only told about the announcement 15 minutes before they went on the air.
According to sources, Kelly was truly “stunned” that Reg didn’t let her in on his plans in advance, but Regis was concerned that if he talked to much about it before it happened, it would leak out. Still, one source close to the show reveals that though Kelly was shocked, she “wasn’t upset” with Regis.
That’d a girl. No sense making the poor guy feel about it. He’s had his time – now it’s yours!
