Why Kelly Ripa Won’t Get a Boob Job

by

Kelly Ripa is sticking with what she was given. 

Over the years, the host of “Live with Kelly and Mark” has revealed that the true implications of undergoing plastic surgery have dissuaded her from having a breast augmentation, even though she identifies herself as having small breasts.

On the latest episode of the ‘Not Skinny But Not Fat’ podcast, I openly shared: ‘I don’t have any bust to speak of.’ Now, it’s no secret that I’ve always been on the flat side – it’s become quite apparent by now.

In her current state, the 54-year-old takes great satisfaction in her smaller breast size. However, she’s openly acknowledged that she’s sought medical advice on multiple occasions regarding breast augmentation surgery to enhance their size.

Kelly admitted, “I’ve attended more consultations for breast augmentation than I care to disclose. Whenever someone mentions a new specialist in this field, I make it a point to schedule a consultation.

And according to the TV personality, the appointments go well.

Kelly remarked that the doctors “consistently speak correctly and act appropriately,” but shared her hesitation to proceed with the surgery after learning about cases where people encountered complications.

She stated that since our cell phones overhear our conversations, relevant suggestions appear. In this case, she encountered numerous scary tales about breast augmentation surgeries.

Could it be that the reason Kelly is unwilling to alter that particular aspect of her body is because she dislikes the notion of needing to get new implants every ten years?

In simpler terms, the former star of All My Children stated that most of her friends have undergone breast augmentation procedures and often replace them after about ten years.

Kelly went on to explain, “If I get new tires at age 55, then by age 65, I would need to replace them. By age 75, I would have used up my first set and require a second one. If I live till 85, it seems I’d need another tire change.

Besides her long-term spouse, Mark Consuelos (who she has been married to for 29 years), and with whom she has children Michael (age 28), Lola (age 24), and Joaquin (age 22), he expresses no grievances. As Kelly humorously put it, “It seems like no one is conversing with these individuals except for Mark, and even he appears to be adhering to a ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy regarding them.

She added, “He’s like, ‘We’re good. I’m fine.’”

For more stars who have sounded off on plastic surgery and other cosmetic procedures, keep reading.

In a June 2025 Instagram post, I openly discussed the various plastic surgeries and cosmetic treatments I’ve had throughout the years, as a star on Shark Tank.

In March 2025, the host of “Watch What Happens Live,” who had previously been candid about avoiding Botox, disclosed that he had started exploring cosmetic treatments and ultimately underwent an injectable procedure intended to minimize wrinkles.

As a lifestyle aficionado, I recently found myself in possession of something brand new to my experience, acquired approximately four weeks prior during an exciting gathering. It was quite a small item, but it’s made a significant impact on me.

Previously on “Teen Mom 2”, the show’s alumna – a mother of seven – had a Brazilian butt lift and tummy tuck procedure back in 2016. Later, in December 2024, she underwent another tummy tuck surgery, liposuction, and breast reduction treatment.

A month later, she spoke candidly about wrestling with her body image.

She expressed her hope on Instagram that her children will never feel such intense pressure about their bodies that they resort to harmful surgeries for weight loss. She feels that cosmetic procedures like a nose job or breast augmentation are acceptable, but striving for thinness to the point of self-mutilation is a sign of mental illness and should be treated with respect.

In the thrilling tale of my life, I, a fan beyond measure, find myself compelled to share an intriguing turn of events that unfolded in April 2024. Three months after stepping out of the prison’s gates, where I had spent seven long years, I underwent a remarkable transformation – a rhinoplasty and septoplasty, commonly known as a ‘nose job’. This operation was not just about aesthetics; it was a symbol of new beginnings, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. The events leading up to this moment were far from ordinary. Seven years prior, I found myself entangled in a tragic tale, serving time for my role in the heart-wrenching loss of my beloved mother, Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard.

The main cast member of “The Real Housewives of Dubai” openly shared her facelift, which she underwent in November 2023, and her subsequent healing process on various social media platforms.

She shared with TopMob News that her intention was to show people the reality of the process when one undergoes a transformation, revealing the wounds and imperfections that are part of it. Five days post-procedure, she resembled someone who had been in a car accident but managed to recover enough to appear presentable. By the tenth day, she was dining out in public without any issues.

Why did the Bravo star openly discuss her facelift experience? She explained that, given her role on a reality television program, it would appear strange if she returned for the next season noticeably younger, an observation she confirmed.

In an Instagram video posted in June 2024, Zarin openly discussed her recent facial enhancement (lower facelift) and some minor adjustments.

After parting ways with David Harbour on “Stranger Things”, the singer known for “Smile” disclosed that she had enhancements, specifically breast augmentation surgery.

In 2013, Lady Gaga shared with Howard Stern that she had a period in her life where she was heavily into smoking marijuana and became fixated on getting facial injections. She recalled visiting a strip mall in Chicago for these treatments, which many people thought was unusual. During this time, she wasn’t always thinking clearly and would often go to the strip mall after smoking marijuana, drinking, and getting injected with various substances like Juvéderm before leaving.

She went on to say, “Now everything has vanished. Prior to filming the ‘Applause’ video, a friend who is a photographer told me, ‘Lady Gaga, I admire you deeply, but if you don’t cease injecting substances into your face, I might just end up ending your life.’

The Real Housewives of New York star got breast implants in 2005, but removed them in 2008.

Every choice I’ve made has led me here, and I won’t dwell on the past but focus on moving forward.

In 2002, the actress confided in The Telegraph that she had undergone various cosmetic procedures. She admitted to having minor facial enhancements, body contouring, and Botox injections. However, she candidly expressed her disappointment with the results, stating that none of it proved effective.

In an interview with People back in 2007, the actress shared that she had corrected her deviated septum, a decision she considers the best she’s ever made. She finally slept like a newborn for the first time in years. Regarding the other speculations, although it might sound mundane, the experience remains uniquely hers. Everything related to it is still part of her personal journey.

In the year 2010, a cast member on The Real Housewives of Atlanta openly disclosed her past procedures, which included a rhinoplasty (nose job), a mastopexy (breast lift), and liposuction.

“I’m very comfortable and confident in myself,” she told People. “I just wanted a tune up.”

In 2015, the reality star affectionately referred to Dr. Lenny Hochstein as her “breast deity” due to his work on her well-defined breasts. It’s no secret that this television personality has been candid about her various cosmetic enhancements, such as a tummy tuck and lip augmentations.

At the age of 24, a cast member on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” underwent lip augmentation using silicone. Later in 2010, she opted to have some of that filler taken out.

As a lifestyle connoisseur reflecting on the past, I can’t help but marvel at the phenomenon that has taken lip enhancement to such extraordinary heights. In my early days, I was among the forerunners who dared to experiment with this transformative procedure and openly share my journey. In 2013, when I appeared on Today, I proudly declared myself as one of the pioneers in the field. My lips, you could say, have paved their own path to fame, as they catapulted me into a career that I never knew existed before! And if given the chance, I would certainly make that choice again.

At the age of 23 in 2009, the actress from “Hills” opted for an extensive makeover, having a total of 10 cosmetic surgeries performed on the same day.

She mentioned in her book, “I could breathe normally, but I chose cosmetic enhancement. I’ll admit it: I used false hair and had my nose done.

The founder of SKKN shared with Allure for their August 2022 issue that she deeply values maintaining a polished appearance. In fact, it’s safe to say her passion for beauty surpasses that of over 90% of people globally. Balancing motherhood, school, and various other responsibilities can make it challenging, but even when she’s tired at the end of the day, she still prioritizes her beauty routines. Typically, she performs her beauty treatments late at night once everyone else has gone to bed, including laser treatments.

The mother of four openly admitted that she’s had a touch of Botox, but she’s steered clear from using fillers on her lips or cheeks. Emphatically stating, “I’ve never used fillers; I haven’t filled my lips or cheeks at any point in time.

During an Instagram Live Q&A session in August 2022, the reality TV personality openly addressed a fan’s query regarding her chest. “I’ll be honest with you all,” Kristin started her reply. “After nursing all three of my children, I had a breast lift.

Later on, she began to sense an issue, so she requested a revision, during which her doctor found the implant was flawed. She disclosed this fact by stating, “It turned out to be severely damaged!” Adding to that, she said, “I had a ruptured implant in there, which is surprising when you consider it.

While The Hills alum isn’t opposed to cosmetic procedures, she admitted she’s “never done” Botox.

She expressed, “I personally wouldn’t do it, but I’ve noticed it suits others quite well. My worry is that we don’t fully understand its long-term impacts (not just over a decade, but rather 20 years or more). Given your face is made up of muscles, it’s important to exercise and maintain them as you would any other muscle.
