Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos Reveal Pre-Show PDA in BTS Clip from ‘Live with Kelly & Mark’

Things got a lil’ bit personal between co-hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos before they walked out and filmed Live with Kelly and Mark this morning. 

In a new video shared on the Live Instagram Story, Ripa, 52, and her hubby, 52, are getting ready backstage for the show. While waiting on the sidelines, Ripa shows some comforting PDA toward her man with a hug from behind.

Right before they make their entrance, the Live Wire author looks at the camera and jokingly says, “He’s convinced he can’t fit through the door,” and Ripa proceeds to point out the small entryway. 

This week, in honor of Consuelos’s debut, the couple received a surprise visit from their daughter, Lola Consuelos, 21, who came to cheer her parents on.

In a BTS snap taken by Ripa (and shared on her Instagram page), she and her husband are smiling in front of the live studio audience, and sitting in the front row is their daughter. “First day. First show. First selfie,” the caption read. “So the adventure begins!”
