QVC Host Kerstin Lindquist Becomes Emotional in Her Last Saturday Morning Q Show
QVC’s Kerstin Lindquist said an emotional goodbye to Saturday Morning Q after nearly 11 years on the show.
“It’s all been incredibly wonderful,” Lindquist stated on Saturday, December 28, sharing the moment with her cohost Alberti Popaj. “Some of the most laugh-out-loud moments we’ve shared have been so funny that we’ve had to step off set. I especially cherish the Halloween shows.”
Lindquist reminisced about filming during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
“I know it may sound strange, but some of my most cherished memories were made during the pandemic when it was just us here,” she explained. “We were dedicated to staying on air for you and finding ways to connect because that’s what this show means, and we made it happen.”
On December 21, Lindquist revealed she was leaving QVC after 13 years to devote more time to family and focus on faith and wellness for women.
Although she has six more QVC shifts in January 2025, Lindquist couldn’t help but express how significant Saturday Morning Q has been in her life for over a decade.
“Everyone says this, but it really is the crew, the people behind the scenes,” she expressed to viewers. “What I will truly miss is sitting down with you every Saturday. It felt almost like a talk show where we could feel your presence. … I’m going to miss that sense of family we’ve built with our viewers each morning.”
During the show, Lindquist received heartfelt messages from her friends and fellow QVC hosts Jennifer Coffey and Rachel Boesing, and she was notably praised by her longtime cohost.
“You have the biggest heart of anyone I’ve ever known, and I care for you deeply. More than anything, your faith motivates me every day, as does your ability to bring such energy to everything you do,” Popaj expressed. “From caring for your family to supporting everyone here at work to attending to our customers at home. I love you and I’ll genuinely miss you.”
Lindquist embraced Popaj in a heartfelt hug before wiping her tears and presenting her final product of the show.
“Thank you all for being with me on this journey for 11 years,” she said while saying goodbye. “Next week, you’ll meet a fantastic new host, and I can’t wait to see all of you thrive. It’s going to be an amazing show in 2025.”
Courtesy of Jennifer Coffey/Instagram Longtime QVC host Jennifer Coffey shared her decision to leave the network at the end of the year. “Join me for my final show on New Year’s Eve. How fitting!” Coffey wrote on Instagram on Tuesday, November 19. “We’re closing one chapter and starting another. I’m excited to […]
As Lindquist embarks on this new journey, she mentioned in a blog post that she will be focusing on her “StRest” podcast, health coaching, and a forthcoming book, which includes a devotional set to release in 2025.
“This hasn’t been an easy choice, yet it feels so clear,” she shared in her blog. “I’m moving on because the Lord has revealed to me it’s time to use my gifts to support women more intentionally in faith and wellness.”
Saturday Morning Q is aired on QVC every Saturday at 10 a.m. ET.
