Kelly's TV show will return to screens on Monday October 16 following the end of the WGA strike. It is the first season of the show to film completely from its new home in New York City, as season five moves from Los Angeles to the Big Apple.
Kelly's children with her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, nine-year-old daughter River and seven-year-old son Remington, have also moved to the big city with their mom. But the move wasn't an easy decision to make, especially because she was so close to her crew who worked with her for four years in LA.
"I haven't actually been able to talk about this a lot. I talked to my crew back in January through tears because I have built such an amazing group of people," she revealed in August.
"Obviously, we've been very successful and I love everybody I work with and we have such great relationships."

It's either I'm not going to be able to continue with the show or I have to go to the East Coast,'" adding: "My family is [in the] East Coast. They're North Carolina-based. It was one of those things where I just had to."

Expressing her appreciation for NBC for their understanding through the moving process, she concluded: "It was really cool that NBC backed me because I was, like, 'Y'all I love doing this show, I really do, I didn't even know I would but I got to make a change for me and my family so any chance we can maybe do this. I know we can't do this from my ranch, so, any chance we can do it in New York, which is at least closer to my family.'"
