Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen

Cohen’s return to The Today Show‘s fourth hour next Friday comes amid continued speculation over the future of Watch What Happens Live.

Consider the source, but with Kelly Clarkson reportedly considering stepping away from her daytime talk show, The National Enquirer says that her occasional fill-in host has his sights set on replacing her permanently.

The Watch What Happens Live host is putting in some serious overtime this week between filling in for Clarkson on her daytime talk show today, and joining Jenna Bush Hager on Today with Jenna & Friends Tuesday.

The Watch What Happens Live host will be trading late night for mid-morning next Tuesday when he co-pilots the Today show’s fourth hour with Jenna Bush Hager.
