Stacy London and Clinton Kelly, both 54, gained fame as co-hosts of the hit TV show What Not to Wear, in which they charmingly bickered with one another as they helped people develop a better fashion sense and confidence.
But apparently, they weren't always friendly towards each other off-screen, as the two engaged in a public feud that lasted around 10 years—until now.
Stacy and Clinton appeared together on Today With Hoda & Jenna on Thursday, Sept. 28, and announced that their feud is officially over. On top of that, the two are working together on a new project, bringing back the dream team one more time.
Clinton told Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager, “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.”
“We have very strong feelings toward each other,” he went on, explaining that he reached out to Stacy and they "had a really emotional conversation...And we just talked through it all.”
Stacy also shared her feelings during the reconciliation, saying, “Oh, I sobbed my eyes 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.”
Talking about what led to the development of their feud, the two referenced the pressure of being in the public eye for a long time: "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."
Rumors of a disagreement between Stacy and Clinton started when What Not to Wear ended in 2013, though they grew when the latter released a collection of essays in 2017 titled, I Hate Everyone, Except You. In the book, Clinton said of his former co-host that he “either adored her or despised her, and never anything in between.” The same year, Clinton revealed that Stacy had blocked him on Twitter.
Although Stacy made an appearance on Clinton's show, The Chew, in 2015, they haven't really been spotted together since then. Thankfully, the two addressed their disagreements recently, and, as they told the two Today hosts, they “forgave each other.”
Now, Stacy and Clinton are taking advantage of their great chemistry—which is still thriving even 20 years after the start of What Not to Wear—and going on tour together.
Clinton announced on Today With Hoda & Jenna, "We make each other laugh, we finish each other’s sentences, why aren’t we sharing this with the world?" In their shows, they will reportedly talk about their entire history together, including behind-the-scenes of What Not to Wear and the feud.
The Stacy & Clinton Show will be a 10-city tour throughout October, starting in Birmingham, Alabama on Oct. 5, and ending in Austin, Texas, on Oct. 18. You can grab tickets on their tour website.
