Kathie Lee Gifford stopped by the FOX411 studios on Tuesday, and she shared some advice for fellow morning-show hosts Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan.

“Be totally professional,” she advised. I would keep anything that is going on between you private… It’s nobody’s business but yours. But always, always be professional at your job. That’s what you’re hired to do.”

Ripa made waves when she disappeared from the air after a sudden announcement that Strahan was leaving “Live!” to take a full-time position at “Good Morning America.”

Until today, Ripa avoided commenting on the headline-making move, but she addressed the drama when she returned to the series Tuesday.

Upon her return to “Live!” Ripa thanked fans for their support and joked about the media hype surrounding her four-day departure from the show.
