"Millennial women are our fastest growing audience segment, and we want to ensure that we continue to produce content that resonates with them," said Marc Rothschild, senior VP, Meredith Digital. "This partnership will provide our editors with daily access to compelling lifestyle and entertainment content, and provide our brand partners with additional opportunities to reach our desired audiences through digital video, experiential and branded content experiences."

The show, airing on weekdays on over 150 local TV stations and cable channel Reelz in over 80% of the country, will be rebranded as “Celebrity Page” and air on Meredith Digital as well starting March 28 and include lifestyle content from Meredith brands like Better Homes and Gardens and Martha Stewart Living and segments like cooking, beauty, health and fitness.
