'What Not to Wear' co-hosts Stacy London, Clinton Kelly reunite after 10-year feud
View Date:2024-12-24 00:43:38
Former "What Not to Wear" co-hosts Stacy London and Clinton Kelly have squashed their differences after a decadelong feud.
London, 54, and Kelly, 54, showed a united front on "Today with Hoda & Jenna" Thursday, revealing that their rift had more to do with public pressure than actual distaste for one another.
"When you grow up a little bit – and we did grow up together on television – there was a lot of points of pride that I don't think either of us were willing to cop to," London said.
Rumblings of a feud between the pair began in 2013 after their TLC show came to an end after 10 years.
It was further exacerbated by Kelly's 2017 collection of essays in which he wrote he "either adored her or despised her, and never anything in between," referring to London. A month later, London blocked Kelly on Twitter (now, X).
Kelly shared on "Today" that he stands by the fact that the pair had a "love-hate relationship," but the quotes were taken out of context that working on the show as a whole was strenuous.
"After seeing the same clickbait story over and over and over on Instagram about how much we hated each other, I was like, 'I can't take this anymore.' Because we don’t really hate each other. We love each other, as a matter of fact," Kelly said.
He revealed that he reached out to London amid the COVID pandemic to put an end to their tension. "We had a really emotional conversation," the TV personality recalled. "And we just talked through it all."
London said she "sobbed my eyes out" during the conversation. "I let it all hang out. I told Clinton everything that made me sad, everything that hurt me, every way I thought I hurt him. All the petty grudges, all the stupid crap."
London also acknowledged that she had more difficulty adjusting to fame than Clinton. "My anxiety really presented more as diva behavior than anxiety. I was afraid to appear weak and there was a lot of stuff going on for me," she said.

Once they were able to let their hurt go, the "What Not to Wear" duo fell back into a routine of banter. "Now, we've decided, we have this great chemistry, we make each other laugh, we finish each other's sentences, why aren't we sharing this with the world?" Kelly said.
In a big reveal, she announced their joint tour, "The Stacy & Clinton Show," which begins in Alabama on Oct. 5 and ends in Texas on Oct. 18.
"We're going to stand up and we're going to talk about the behind-the-scenes stories of 'What Not to Wear.' … The big feud, we'll go through that," Kelly teased. "We'll do lots of audience participation, like if people want style advice, our updated style advice."
