The couple are delighted by the nominations
The nods are a testament to the couple’s hard work and dedication to the show.

They’ve been working together since 2023, when Mark took over from Ryan Seacrest.

Kelly and Mark don’t hold back and have become known for their candid conversations on-air.

Working hard

Mark took over from Ryan
They adore working together and when Mark joined the show, he confessed he was blown away by Kelly’s work ethic.

“I knew that,” he told E News about how hard she works, “but not until I had to do it everyday. She works really, really, really hard.”

They recently revealed a big new project away from LIVE. The couple purchased the Italian Campobasso Football Club in 2022, and ESPN has been following them as they took on ownership.

The trailer was released this week, with Mark sharing it with his 3.4 million Instagram followers, writing: “Proud and excited to announce our new ESPN Original series Running with the Wolves — an inside look at the underdog rise of our Campobasso Football Club.”

He told People: “Building the Campobasso FC project from the ground-up has been one of the wildest and most rewarding adventures we’ve ever taken on. We can’t wait for new and longtime fans to join us for this ride.”

It seems this isn’t the end of their business ventures, because as they explained: “We are just getting started!”
