NEW YORK (AP) — Kelly Ripa is set to announce a new partner for her daytime chat show, nearly a year after the departure of former co-host Michael Strahan.
Ripa posted a video to Twitter on Sunday afternoon in which she took a sip from a "Live with Kelly" mug that also included a question mark. She said in the video, "Tune in tomorrow. Trust me."

The show says it's "growing to two" on Twitter . Another posthas "announce co-host" on Ripa's "to do" list.
News of Strahan's exit for "Good Morning America" last May led Ripa to skip the show for two days in protest of the way the situation was handled.
So excited to join this show!! @KellyRipa crushes every morning... one of my favorite people ever #livekellyryan
