Kerstin Linquist is returning to the Q....

Kerstin just posted she will be on the Saturday morning Q representing a new line, at least new to me, Vitahustle, plant based protein.

Seems disingenuous to make a big production about leaving only to return albeit in a lesser role.

She is obviously quite comfortable returning.

hosts seem to leave, only to return !!!

I imagine they leave because the host schedule, from what I understand, can be rather brutal especially if you have a family. So maybe Kirsten left because being a product rep allows her more time for family and to do the other things she wants to do. I won't be watching no matter what her reasons are for leaving and returning.

Lori Shore left QVC as a host so she could spend more time with her daughter. She came back as a rep for Mrs. Prindable's Apples. It took a few years for her to come back. It wasn't like Jennifer Coffey and Kerstin Lindquist that left and in less than a year they are back as vendor representatives.

I was thinking the same thing! Sounds appropriate, though!

@JudyL. Years ago Mary Beth said she couldn't work at Q with her schedule and family without her husband's help. I believe he had a shop and did musical instrument repair out of their home.

I have no interest in Kirsten's latest nutritional Hawk either and won't be watching.

Fortunately she is going to be a rep for something I have no interest in, so I won't have to see her.

First Jen, now her....then why the BIG farewells? QVC should not bake anymore "so-long" cakes, as they are all-for-naught.

Who is next? Lisa, who gave us 9-months heads-up when she left-!

@MercyMe7 They get our hopes up that we'll never have to see them again, then, wham! They're back. It's as disheartening as a broken promise.

After all the whoopla surrounding their departure, I'd be too embarrassed to return.......especially so soon after leaving! Wonder how long before their next grand send-off!!!!!

@Krimpette Vendors get grand send offs?

I understand that could very well be the reason. I just don't understand the big send off only to return a few months later.

When she announced on instagram this morning she seemed almost giddy.

Very well said and agreed upon!!!!!!

Vitahustle is already sold on the Q, It is the product Kevin Hart represents.

I guess Kerstin is taking his place.

I too am tired of these long goodbyes with returns shortly after.

I would prefer they say they are leaving their full time host position and coming back in a part time vendor position.

Courtney Cason, Nancy Hornback, also former hosts, now reps. Ellen Langsam now repping Hair Max, she was a host many years ago.

When you need money, you need money, no matter how you want to color it.

I said it before they left, neither have the talent they thought they had.

They probably thought that they had a stronger following of fans than they actually had. All of this manifestation didn't result in anything.
