LIVE co-hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are taking a break from filming their daytime talk show until the fall, The U.S. Sun has exclusively learned.

The next time everyone will return to film will be on September 5- the same time last year Live with Kelly and Ryan's new season premiered.

A source close to production told The U.S. Sun: "The Live family is taking their annual summer break, but will still be providing fresh new material to viewers at home during this time."

The insider added that even though there is no filming happening the next few five weeks, there are some staffers hard at work already planning Halloween content.

Despite the talk show being on hiatus from filming, the pre-taped episodes that will be airing include new content that production and hosts "worked so hard on."

"Kelly and Mark's goal is to just bring joy and a bunch of laughter and smiles all summer long," the source shared.

WHAT'S TO COME

Starting next week and continuing until the end of the current season, Live with Kelly and Mark will have new guests, new celebs, fresh cooking segments and fun games for viewers at home.

Coming up next week - for Live's Summer School Week - Julia Stiles, Taylor Lautner and his wife Taylor Dome, Rose Byrne, and Marcus Scribner will be the celeb guests.

Then, the week of August 7th, it's Live's Body Boosters Week, which will include various experts and topics to improve health such as a lesson in accupuncture.

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi from Jersey Shore and Becki Newton will be appearing that week.

Even though Kelly will be co-hosting alongside her husband for majority of the episodes, there will be some surprise guest co-hosts.

These include: Live's Deja Vu, John Legend, Annie Murphy, Anthony Anderson, Rutledge Wood and Ayo Edebiri.

In addition, Live's Foodfluencer Friday Face-Off: International Edition will resume every Friday.

HEATING UP

On July 27, The U.S. Sun obtained exclusive photos of Mark filming Friday's Foodfluencer segment.

Alongside guest co-host Deja, he was seen tasting some spicy tacos that were made with help from TikToker Alejandra Tapia.

In the pics, the Riverdale star seemingly struggled with the heat level of the tacos as he covered his mouth with his hand.

The same day, The U.S. Sun obtained exclusive pics of Kelly walking in her New York City neighborhood wearing a pretty pink sundress.

The New Jersey native appeared to miss her hosting duties for the day to film Thursday's broadcast of her game show, Generation Gap.

While many fans praised her show in the comments section of her Instagram, others begged for the star to return to Live.

One wrote at the time: "Miss you on Live! Come back! Mark is doing a great Job."

Another added: "Why weren't you on Live it wasn't the same!" and a third asked, "Are you ever coming back?"

HOT HOSTS SUMMER

On July 15, the couple of 27 years were seen attending a charity event in the Hamptons in rare off-duty photos obtained by The U.S. Sun.

"They were very down to earth and came by themselves," an onlooker said about their appearance at a private residence in Water Mill, NY.

Prior to this, the lovebirds enjoyed a romantic getaway to Greece where they were joined by their 22-year-old daughter, Lola.

The family visited the country's historic architecture, relaxed on the beach, enjoyed Greek cuisine and, of course, time with each other.

When they're not traveling, the Live hosts spend majority of their time in Manhattan where they own a $27million townhouse in the Upper East Side.

They also have a five-bedroom home in Southampton, NY, and a winter house in Telluride, Colorado.

While they have not discussed their plans for August, it's safe to say they will be sharing updates on social media with their fans.
