Former “What Not to Wear” co-hosts Stacy London and Clinton Kelly have officially ended their feud — after 10 years.

The pair opened up about their reconciliation during a tearful joint interview on “Today with Hoda & Jenna.”

“I sobbed my eyes out. I told Clinton everything that made me sad, everything that hurt me, every way I thought I hurt him. All the petty grudges. All the stupid crap,” London said during Thursday’s appearance.

Kelly chimed in that they “don’t really hate each other” — even after all this time.

“After seeing the same clickbait story over and over and over on Instagram about how much we hated each other, I was like, ‘I can’t take this anymore,’” he explained of reaching out. “We love each other, as a matter of fact.”

“We have very strong feelings toward each other,” Kelly continued. “So I reached out to Stacy and I was like, ‘Can we put this behind us? Let’s talk it out.’ And we had a really emotional conversation. It was during the pandemic, sort of as the pandemic was ending. And we just talked through it all.”

Their epic blowout began following the release of Kelly’s 2017 book, “I Hate Everyone, Except You,” where he wrote he “either adored her or despised her” and they spent “too much time” together against their “own free will.”

London “sobbed” over the reunion.

“There’s a part of me that will love Stacy forever, and a part of me that would be just fine if I never saw her again for the rest of my life,” he explained in his book.

“We had great chemistry, for sure. But just like when you combine baking soda and vinegar, after the fun part fizzles out, you’re left with a puddle of nothing in particular.”

Naturally, London took offense and subsequently blocked him on social media.

The pair previously worked on the TLC show together from 2003 to 2013. Now that they’ve buried the hatchet, they are set to embark on a 10-city live tour, titled “The Stacy & Clinton Show,” from Oct. 5 to Oct. 18.
