Greta Van Susteren and Megyn Kelly are together again, with both women announcing last week that they had accepted positions as part of the NBC News team.
And while the hiring of the two all-star anchors is being viewed by members of the media as quite the coup for the Peacock Network, Van Susteren is less than thrilled about being back under the same roof as Kelly according to one industry insider.
That individual told DailyMail.com that Van Susteren, 62, took an almost immediate disliking to Kelly when she first met the young upstart 12 years ago around the time she started at Fox News, and that little has changed over the years.
'They both started working together out of the [Fox News] Washington DC office when Megyn joined the network in 2004, and Greta never liked her,' explained the insider.
'She was extremely jealous of Megyn.'
That jealousy was due in some part to Megyn's rapid rise at Fox News claims the insider, which culminated in her getting her own primetime program on the network back in 2013, The Kelly File.
The last episode of that show aired Friday, thee days after Kelly and NBC revealed that the Fox News host would be joining the NBC News team in a surprise announcement.
No one was more surprised claims the insider than Van Susteren, who had no idea that Megyn, 46, was making the switch to NBC just as she was getting settled in and her new show was set to premiere.
DailyMail.com has reached out to MSNBC for comment.
Van Susteren will kick off her new show on MSNBC at 6pm on Monday with an interview with President Obama's good friend and advisor Valerie Jarrett.
