QVC’s Kerstin Lindquist fought back tears as she hosted her final show with the shopping network, marking the end of nearly 14 years on air.
“I love you guys. Honestly, it’s not goodbye,” Lindquist shared on Thursday, February 6, during her farewell episode of Feel Good Finds alongside her colleagues and friends Rachel Boesing and Alberti Popaj. “Thank you for having me here for the last 13 years. You really, truly are my family.”
Throughout her emotional sendoff, Lindquist received heartfelt messages from fellow QVC hosts, including Rick Domeier and Pat James DeMentri. She also took time to showcase some of her favorite products from brands such as Home Reflections, Lug, Calista, Barefoot Dreams, and ActionHeat.
Supporting her during this milestone moment was her family, who stayed up until midnight to watch her final show live from the QVC studios in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

“Every time you buy something, it is based on a need, and that need is validated by another human,” Lindquist reflected during her farewell. “Here at QVC, that’s what it’s all about.
We are validating you as a human being. It can be fulfilled by sticking here with us. It’s a relationship. This isn’t just buying something.”
As she prepared to step away from the network, Lindquist encouraged viewers to continue watching and embracing the new hosts joining the QVC family.
“All of these new hosts, all of these people, they are here for you,” she said. “They love you. Make new friends, stay engaged with us. That’s what this life is all about. It’s validating each other and being seen and heard. I love you.”

Lindquist initially announced her departure in December 2024, sharing that she was leaving QVC to spend more time with her family and focus on faith and women’s wellness.
“After a prayerful year, God has led me to such a time as this,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “This is more than shopping, it’s a relationship, and we will always be family. I pray I’ll still be able to serve you in what’s to come for me in 2025, and I know if you follow along, you will continue to be blessed. Xoxo.”
