Premiering in national syndication on Monday, September 14, the daily talker features Emmy-winning talk show host, supermodel, and businesswoman Tyra Banks leading an influential panel of lifestyle experts that includes Chrissy Teigen, Joe Zee, Lauren Makk and Leah Ashley. Childress, who will serve as senior supervising producer, and Gorman, join the previously announced team of executive producer Shane Farley, co-executive producer Rebecca Mayer and senior supervising producers, Karl Newton and George Davilas. The announcement was made today by Lisa Hackner, EVP Daytime & Syndicated Programming, ABC Entertainment.

"With Ashley's incredibly strong vision and Patricia's unique and creative style, combined with the diverse and talented team already in place, 'FABLife' will have a fresh look and tone that is truly unique in daytime."
