Re: "said matter of factly that both were let go"...did they...

That class of 6 hosts is now half of its former size.  And of the previous class of 5 only Courtney Khondabi remains.

Re: Courtney Webb Leaving QVC

At one point, QVC had 32 host and three live channels.  They're down to 25 hosts and one live channel.

 

Courtney W. was part of the last group hired.  It seemed to me QVC never found a way to truly utilize her talents.

She was great!  I wish her well and hope to see her at the Olympics!!!

Everyone has favorite hosts and she was one of mine so I'm especially sad to see her go.

Re: Courtney Webb Leaving QVC

I always thought Courtney did a wonderful job as host. She was always professional, pleasant and very well prepared. QVC never seemed to utilize her as much as they could have IMO. My best to her in future endeavors.

Hmmm, it's all speculation, but I don't think she was fired.  I don't know anyone who would show up for another on-air show on Saturday if they were fired.  

 

It looks more like a Mary Nelson type of departure to me -- really leaving to be closer to her family.  But, who knows.


Didn't say she was fired.  She is leaving on her own choice is what she said.

@rms1954   I know.  But some posters are speculating that Courtney's twisting the truth and actually got fired by QVC.  Pure speculation.  No one would know that.

Gotcha!  I tried to be sure I was clear.  I know how that speculation things go.

Re: Courtney Webb Leaving QVC

Just to be CLEAR and CONCISE so as not to create any speculation, read it for yourself or hear it from her:

 

There's a moment when you have to chase your dreams, and there is a time where you need to pivot. Shopping with you on QVC has been a dream come true! A season of my life that has changed me for the better. I am grateful for the opportunity and the beautiful individuals (guests, team members, customers, and friends) I have met. At this time, my pivot has come to be closer to family. I need to be where I can nurture those relationships, and I appreciate the kindness and understanding that family is the most important blessing in my life. This is not goodbye, but a simple, I'll see you again. I appreciate you and admire the openness of welcoming into your homes and lives. Please stay in touch via social media, and I will share new chapters with you there.

I think she's very good.  


Great Host!  Always very thorough when presenting merchandise being offered without yelling, looking at herself on the monitor or interrupting the vendor.  Wish her all the best in her next endeavor.

Re: Courtney Webb Leaving QVC

I had no idea she was still at QVC—haven't seen her on air in a very long time. She was always prepared, professional, and engaging, and I enjoyed her presentations.
