Kathie Lee Gifford spent fifteen years hosting “Live With Regis And Kathie Lee” alongside the legendary late television personality Regis Philbin. Now, in a new interview, she’s opening up about the secret behind their electric on-screen chemistry.

“I remember all those days of being with him and so looking forward to seeing him every morning,” Gifford told Fox News of Philbin. “But we would never speak before the show. And that’s what kept it alive and unpredictable and fun.”

“And we had fun for 20 years — 15 years working together, and then [afterward], we remained wonderful friends. [The experience] changed my life. We made broadcast history,” she added. ‘We changed the landscape of daytime TV forever, for better or worse. And Regis became one of my closest, dearest friends, as has Hoda [Kotb] on ‘The Today Show.’”

Gifford, 67, was then asked why she decided to leave both of these shows.

“For the same reason — I’m an artist,” she said. “And unless an artist is growing and creating and thriving on the vine, we die. We just die inside. And again, my joy was non-negotiable. I had movies to make, I had books to write. I had symphonic oratorios I wanted to film in Israel. And I just had big dreams that had never come to pass. And I knew I was running out of time for them like everyone is.”

Gifford also opened up about her strong Christian faith.

“You know, the Bible is very clear about what our relationship with God is supposed to be,” she said. “It doesn’t say once a week I want you to go and visit me for an hour. Or on Easter Sunday or on Christmas Eve, that’ll be enough. That’ll give you everything in life.”

“No, the Bible says in Acts, it says, ‘In Him, we live and move and have our being.’… When we seek a relationship with the living God, it will absolutely transform every aspect of your life,” Gifford added.

When asked what her best piece of advice is, Gifford had an answer ready.

“Simply that it’s never too late,” she said. “If you’ve always wanted to be a singer, dancer, actress – there’s always ways you can do those kinds of things, even if it’s not going to be your life’s work. Because dreams delayed and dreams unrealized create almost a sort of sense of despair in the human soul.”

“It’s a negativity that eats at you,” Gifford added. “It eats at you and robs you of your joy. And I don’t think God wants us to be robbed by joy. You know, nobody in the Bible ever retired. They just died *laughs*. Died or went on to be on an even more glorious experience and adventure with God.”
