Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos Reveal Their Wild NSFW Routine After Kids Move Out!

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are embracing their empty nest.   

Five months following the disclosure that their children Michael Consuelos (age 27), Lola Consuelos (age 23), and Joaquin Consuelos (age 22) no longer reside with them, Kelly recently unveiled a fresh and intimate approach they’ve adopted to navigating life at home without them.

In a recent episode of “Live with Kelly and Mark” on May 26th, the interviewee, who is 54 years old, told guest Amanda Peet that the first experience was quite unexpected. He described the second one as nothing to worry about. However, the third one will make you feel like, ‘Oh my goodness, what have we done? Now it’s just us.’ After a while, your entire life at home turns into being comfortable with nudity wherever you choose.

54-year-old Mark found himself in agreement with his wife’s disclosure and likened their shared activity to feeling like a “spectacle in a circus.” However, despite their children having moved out, the couple remains vigilant in keeping tabs on them—though they may not always receive a response when calling.

The Riverdale alum shared that he had sent his children articles about what employers seek in candidates after they graduated, stating “Have you read this article?” However, it seemed no one had taken the time to read them as nobody appears to have read anything.

Joaquin is our most recent academic achievement, having graduated from the University of Michigan this month. At the same time, his parents and Lola, who earned her degree from New York University in 2023, went to the ceremony together. Meanwhile, their elder brother Michael obtained his film degree from NYU in 2020 as well.

For Kelly and Mark, their kids will forever maintain a bond with their New York residence. In a home tour they did for Architectural Digest last December, the pair unveiled a unique art piece that symbolizes Michael, Lola, and Joaquin – three lifelike paintings of their eyes situated near their bedroom.

Mark expressed that since their family no longer resides there, exiting their bedroom seems as if the family members are still present. Kelly then shared her sentiment, saying she could gaze into her children’s eyes endlessly and finds them truly remarkable.

During a 2017 episode of Live! With Kelly, when Mark Consuelos joined Kelly Ripa, she took the opportunity to voice her grievance. She said, “Whenever we have special time together at home, Mark becomes grumpy and short with me afterward, which I don’t appreciate. It seems odd to me.”

Though she later clarified it was all in jest, Mark felt compelled to clarify his position when he noticed the joke had become a hot topic. “I just want to clear up one thing: no one can be rude after something if they are asleep,” he said on-air a few days later. “I don’t sleep.”

Kelly added, “Perhaps I was being unclear. I didn’t mean ‘rude.’ I meant completely disinterested—asleep.

The children, Michael Consuelos, Lola Consuelos, and Joaquin Consuelos, are cautious when browsing through social media due to a specific reason. For instance, during an episode in 2019, Mark announced he would manage his Instagram feed for the show Riverdale, which prompted Kelly to comment, “Oh, Daddy, I love it when you take over.” As a result, Kelly is confident that her kids have made efforts to remove any trace of them from social media. She stated in an interview with TopMob News in April 2023 that they likely blocked any accounts referencing their family names and have also blocked her and other family members on their social media accounts.

In my expert opinion as a lifestyle guru, when Kelly shared her throwback Halloween photos from 2020 featuring Mark and their friend Bruce Bozzi dressed in full CHiPs outfits, my husband couldn’t help but chime in about the snug fit of those trousers.

He diplomatically pointed out, “Full disclosure, I think that might just be a shadow causing that bulging effect.” This remark left Kelly questioning, “Baby, are you seeing shadows?”

Later, during her appearance on Daily Pop by TopMob, Kelly wasn’t shy about acknowledging the topic that had been raised. When host Justin Sylvester commented on the reason behind their long marriage, she humorously responded, “Well, it’s not the only reason we’ve been married for so long, but I would say it definitely ranks in the top three.

Instead of grumbling, Kelly developed the habit of thoroughly inspecting herself before posting any family memories on Halloween due to the photo frenzy.

When Justin Sylvester pointed out that Kelly had been extremely selective with her Instagram posts from a November 2020 tropical vacation, the morning host playfully responded, “You have no idea how meticulous I’ve been. And how constricting it all can be (I’m not complaining).

The reason for their long-lasting marriage, spanning nearly 30 years with three children? According to Kelly, it’s all about love and intimacy, as she shared during a 2021 episode of Live!.

During a temporary hosting stint, Mark and his partner, Kelly, talked about the TV series “Scenes From a Marriage” and shared their unique approach to handling tension in their relationship.

Kelly remarked that in the Consuelos household, such turmoil wouldn’t occur because Mark would swiftly address any issues. She explained, “He would say something like, ‘Oh, you seem troubled? I can fix that. You feel uncomfortable with something? Don’t worry, I’ll handle it. You feeling overwhelmed? I’ve got your back. I know what you require.'”

She continued by saying, “Everything for Mark is resolved with—,” to which Mark responded, “Love.” Kelly added, “Love and intimacy.” Mark countered, “Not everything. Not everything!” But she clarified, “Almost everything, except a few things.

Mark responded to Kelly’s post of her wearing a vibrant rainbow-sequined sweater with some lively words. Referencing the message “More Glitter, Less Twitter” on her top, he humorously inquired, “Sweetheart, is that an ‘G’ or a ‘C’… I was just curious.

Oh my goodness, I can’t help but reminisce! Remembering the joyous occasion of youngest son Joaquin turning 18 recently has stirred up some nostalgia. When Mark shared an Instagram tribute in February 2021, titled “Our little guy is all grown up,” I couldn’t resist commenting, “You know what? Creating him was such a blast!”

It seems that bringing Joaquin into the world was quite the global adventure, as Mark mentioned he was, well, “made” during a trip to Montreal. What an incredible journey it has been!

In the thrilling world of entertainment, when my beloved Andy Cohen dared his dear friend to play a game titled “Have You Schtupped There?” during the September 2022 episode of Watch What Happens Live, the response was an emphatic yes.

From public restrooms to our shared days on All My Children, and even aboard a boat, the affirmative responses kept rolling in. As Cohen humorously quipped, “You used to go to the bay in front of my house and schtup on that boat of yours.”

However, despite the apparent intimacy displayed on their Instagram PDA, there are still a few locations left unexplored. When asked about getting frisky in a car en route to an event, a department store dressing room, or even the set of her daytime talk show, Kelly admitted that those adventures were yet to unfold.

Kelly’s preferred pose? The one that showcases her best angle. During the peak of the pandemic, while she was working on her show in NYC and he was filming Riverdale in Vancouver, they developed some rather unusual intimate routines, as she shared on a March 2023 episode of her Let’s Talk Off Camera podcast.

She also came up with a clever solution. “I grew so concerned about my appearance during FaceTime calls,” she admitted, “that I began propping up the computer on a ladder, allowing me to look upward at Mark and preventing him from seeing the true effects of gravity.

It seems that Kelly doesn’t typically involve personal relationships in her professional life. When discussing the romance between Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes that led to their departure from ABC’s GMA3, Kelly made a humorous remark about herself and her husband maintaining professional boundaries now that he works with her on Live.

In April, she revealed on Watch What Happens Live that she and her husband of 28 years have sworn off any romantic involvement while working together due to the network’s disapproval of such relationships between TV partners. “I know how ABC doesn’t like it when their TV partners get too close,” she said, “so we promise, no secret rendezvous.

After Joaquin left for college in 2021, Mark and Kelly grew accustomed to living in an empty nest. As they explained to TopMob News in June, they had fallen into the routine of coming and going as they pleased, often leaving doors unlocked. However, their peaceful lifestyle was disrupted when Lola returned from London, requiring them to secure their home once more. Joaquin’s summer break brought another unexpected return, necessitating another lockdown.

When Mark and Kelly moved to a temporary residence in New York, they found that the lack of privacy pushed them to be more inventive. “You wouldn’t believe,” she joked, “the measures we had to take.

During her final semester at college, Lola often entered her parents’ bedroom without knocking, a habit they were eager to change. To address this issue playfully, Mark jokingly warned his daughter about the unexpected surprises waiting for her in their room from now on. In a January episode of “Live! With Kelly and Ryan,” Mark said, “Watch out Lola Conseulos, this week’s a bit unusual, isn’t it?” When Kelly asked why this week was special, Mark replied with a grin, “It is now.”

The NSFW (Not Safe for Work) warning came after Lola continued to enter their bedroom without notice. During the episode, Mark and Kelly explained that they had a conversation with Lola about the issue. Mark told her, “I didn’t want you to misunderstand, I’m thrilled that you’re back home. We missed you, you’re the soul of our family, you’re hilarious and terrific. But remember to knock before entering.
