The hosts have been spending time exercising as part of Live’s Strive for More in ’24 segment.

here have been different fitness instructors each day to show off new moves to the pair.

The day’s fitness instructor had Kelly, 53, and Mark, 52, in the floor doing some stretches.

He explained why it was important to focus on the upper body as well as the lower body.

The camera panned away from Kelly, who was working on a stretch, beside show producer Michael Gelman.

While it was focused on the fitness instructor, Kelly hissed at Gelman.

“You are so irritating,” she said to Gelman, who barely listened what she had to say.

“Shh,” Gelman said, shushing her and pointing to the fitness instructor so they didn’t interrupt him.

It’s unclear what Gelman was doing to annoy Kelly, as the camera was not on him at that moment.

However, he was likely snickering at something the instructor had said.

The audience couldn’t help but laugh at Kelly’s outburst, but the show went on quickly from there.

‘I’M SO MAD’

Kelly went head-to-head with Mark on Tuesday with another spat on the morning show.

Mark sparked a reaction from Kelly, 53, after he reported sports news during the opening segment of the daytime program.

“I’m not talking to you anymore,” Kelly told Mark as she patted her mouth clean with a paper napkin.

The ex-soap opera actress had just nibbled on a Cuban sandwich before her admission.

Last night Kelly’s favorite football team, the Philadelphia Eagles, competed against Mark’s favorite football team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Mark’s beloved Buccaneers triumphed over the Eagles, beating Kelly’s top team 32 to 9.

She later revealed that she was “so mad,” implying that she was upset about her team losing.

Kelly has seemed to be snapping up Mark quite a bit on-air.

‘ARE YOU KIDDING?’

At the beginning of Monday’s episode, Mark informed Kelly and the audience that it would be snowing in the Big Apple tomorrow.

The Riverdale alum revealed that the city that never sleeps would be getting “one or two inches of snow.”

After reading the weather report, Mark asked producer Michael Gelman, who was off-camera, if he and Kelly got “a day off from work” because of the snow.

“No, are you kidding?” Kelly replied in an annoyed tone.

She then proceeded to “walk him through” what happens when they have to host and it’s snowing.

“We’ll walk across Central Park in the snow [and] we will arrive to an empty studio. There will be no people,” Kelly told Mark.

The Live Wire author added that “disgruntled producers, interns, and various people found in the studios’ building” will serve as the Live audience for the day.

KRABBY KELLY

In an episode of Live that aired in October 2023, Kelly furiously argued with Mark on air about who’s the better driver between them.

After a story Mark told about the two of them driving, Kelly suggested they should have an RV for traveling.

Mark asked her: “In all honestly, could you or would you drive it? Would you want to back one up?”

Kelly looked unsure for a moment, then answered.

“I would learn how to drive an RV,” she replied.

She continued: “My dad, let me remind you, was a bus driver for New Jersey Transit for 30 years, so I believe -“

It was then time for her husband to loudly jump in and argue.

“My dad, uh, my dad worked for the Defense Department,” Mark shot back, as both husband and wife began talking over each other with increasing volume.

Kelly lobbed her own barb at Mark, saying: “And you were in the military!”
