RIPA NURSED TO RECOVERY BY HER PARENTS

TV host KELLY RIPA made a dramatic recovery from a bout of stomach flu to return to LIVE WITH REGIS + KELLY on Wednesday (28Nov07) - just 24 hours after she fled the show. Ripa was forced to cut short a live broadcast from the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas on Monday (26Nov07) when she fell ill. Co-host Regis Philbin later told viewers,"Kelly is a little bit under the weather right now." Ripa returned on Wednesday, and credited her parents with nursing her to a speedy recovery. After Philbin joked, "She's pregnant again," Ripa told viewers, "I am sorry about that. It caught me by surprise. "My parents took care of me all night. Cold compresses and nice hot tea."
