THE TALK’s Sara Gilbert has accused Ryan Seacrest of lying about being a vegan.
She roasted the Live host as she joined his show with Kelly Ripa on Monday.

Kelly and Ryan welcomed The Talk’s Sara, 47, as she promotes the new season of The Conners.
During a discussion about health and fitness, Ryan, also 47, told his guest: “We have veganism in common!” although he admitted, “You’re probably more strict than I.”
Sara immediately hit back: “Right. Because you’re not a vegan.”
As the audience laughed, Ryan tried to explain: “When I eat plants… I’m a vegan! And when I cheat, I cheat.”
The actress decided to put this to the test, asking the American Idol host: “What’s in your cup?”
“My cup… this is H2O,” he said, innocently, as he leaned over to show Sara the contents.
“So you only drink water, you don’t eat food?” she clapped back, sarcastically.
Ryan then decided to come clean about his diet, as he revealed: “I think the thing for me is, I try and eat a lot of plants but I love everything. But for you, you are strict right?”

“I’m pretty strict, yeah,” she replied.
Sara explained that she abstains from dairy, although she will occasionally take a “tiny bite” of home baked cookies from her friend.
RYAN’S REGIME
Ryan previously told PEOPLE in 2021 that he is “con-vegan”, meaning “conveniently vegan”.
“So I do cheat and eat things every once a while,” he explained.
“But I try and mostly stay plant-based and fish-based occasionally.”
The workaholic TV personality, who is dating model Aubrey Paige, also practices intermittent fasting and daily workouts to maintain his trim physique.
Despite his early starts as a co-host of Live, he skips breakfast and sticks to tea, coffee, and water until lunch.
Meanwhile, Sara has been vegetarian since she was 13, making the switch to vegan a decade ago.
The mom-of-two even authored a book titled The Imperfect Environmentalist, in which she discusses the eco friendly impacts of the diet.
