Kelly Ripa has hope and religion that Mark Consuelos gained’t ask for this within the morning.
The discuss present host, 54, revealed that she finds the 54-year-old “Riverdale” actor’s desire for morning intercourse “disgusting.”
“Men are morning people. He hasn’t learned, he’ll never learn,” Ripa stated on Wednesday’s episode of the “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast. “He wants to kiss. And I have a retainer in. And he’s got his nasal strips on. It’s like we are the most repulsive, disgusting. I’m already pre-disgusted for tomorrow morning.”
Because the couple, who tied the knot in 1996, began working collectively on “Live with Kelly and Mark,” Ripa has pushed for “night only” intimacy.
And the morning discuss present’s early name time has “almost repulsed” Consuelos from wanting morning intercourse.
“It’s so early, and it’s like a miracle. It’s like a miracle has occurred,” the actress quipped.
Regardless of her time of day desire, Ripa views intercourse like train, the place being constant in a routine makes it simpler to do.
“The more you do it, the more you do it,” she defined. “And so, you just have to do it and then you’re like, ‘Oh, I remember why I like this.’”
Ripa additionally advised host Amanda Hirsch her largest challenge in relation to working along with her husband of 30 years.
“He doesn’t listen to me frequently, and he will tune me out while we are live on the air,” the “All My Children” alum said. “And I’m like here’s the thing, I’m used to you tuning me out in life, but when you are being paid, highly paid by the way, to literally listen to me, then you have to listen to me.”

Consuelos formally joined Ripa behind the desk in 2023, after Ryan Seacrest’s departure. Nevertheless, at first, it wasn’t simple to get the cleaning soap star on board.
“It was really convincing Mark,” Ripa recalled. “Because initially when they came to Mark, he flat out refused.”
“I also thought that was kind of a bad idea,” she confessed. “I was like a husband and a wife hosting a morning show is different than a husband and wife acting together or producing something together.”
However in the end, his time on the present has been well-received.
“The audience really responds to Mark because Mark has a gives zero Fs attitude,” Ripa gushed. “And the audience loves that. There’s no artifice with him. If he hates something, he hates it out loud no matter how much we’re supposed to love it.”
“And when he thinks something is dumb,” she famous, “he says it no matter how much we’re supposed to pretend to like whatever the thing is.”
Being actual is one factor Ripa and Consuelos — who share children Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22 — delight themselves on.
“We have been together for 31 years and we are not afraid to express ourselves publicly, there is no artifice,” the “Hope & Faith” alum continued. “We’re not worried about protecting each other’s feelings. We both just say what is on our minds and I guess people find that relatable.”
As Ripa put it, “I love working with him.”
Simply final month, the writer referred to as out her associate’s inflexible weight loss program.
“So right before the Academy Awards, I was having trouble getting my dress zipped up the side. It was a side-zip dress, and I kept getting zipped into the dress,” Ripa shared on a June episode of “Live with Kelly and Mark.”
After following Consuelos’s tremendous strict, tremendous excessive protein weight loss program of yogurt, veggies and steak for 3 days, the gown match.
“I don’t love it, but I ate exactly how you told me to eat, and that dress zipped right up, no side skin,” she defined.
“And I looked super fit. Super, super fit. So thank you for that.”
Nevertheless, following his routine was a one-time factor.
“It’s the only time I’ve listened to Mark about my diet because I typically don’t like to do what you’re doing,” Ripa went on. “I just find, you’re like, way too disciplined. I can’t live that way. But for 72 hours, I can live like Mark Consuelos, so I lived like Mark Consuelos for 72 hours.”
In the meantime, some folks aren’t considering listening to each element Ripa and Consuelos share with the general public.
“I’m pretty sure they’ve blocked us,” she advised E! Information in 2023 about her kids. “When you have a news feed and it says ‘Suggest more or suggest this, like this or block this channel,’ I’m certain they have blocked any channel with any mention of our names. Just like they block us on social media. They block us any way they can.”
