I am very surprised that QVC let Gabrielle Kerr go after 12 years of good service. She is a lovely person.



I thought she was one of the better hosts, too.  I will admit to never seeing a show with Ms. Zell or Ms. Ivy.


They need to hire new hosts who don't look alike. I never knew who was who. Years ago, they all looked different.

I just saw that Antonella said that she is definitely leaving after 18 years? Was that her choice? I am shocked, she is a great force on the Q. What is actually going on here? I thought that the Q was gaining more customers because of covid? 


I actually thought business would be down. When ur home - u don't need to buy much.

I believe Gabrielle will have the easiest time finding employment. She had a nice TV presence. We know they had been gunning for the oldest one of the group for awhile.

And if I were that oldest one, I'd be ready to sue the pants off them ... not so much for "ageism," but that survey they put out on her ... why was she singled out?

This is so sad.  Elise Ivy is really good, she is calm explains things so well.  Hope she is not on the chopping block.

MaryBeth is past her prime. Wonder why Q mgmt didn’t phase out some of those close to retirement and invest in younger ones to keep for future. Or is there no future??

Not unhappy that Kristine Zell is leaving, but will be unhappy if Elise Ivy leaves!

It was announced that QVC2 will have no more live shows.....thus not that many hosts are needed....

I hate to see people lose their jobs, but to me, Kristine Zell never seemed to mesh very well as a QVC host-she was very scripted, lots of mistakes, and interrupted vendors.  Some of the vendors even looked puzzled or annoyed when hosting with her......
