Kelly Ripa of 'Live with Kelly and Ryan' Tears up Saying She's Not Speaking to 2 of Her 3 Kids

Kelly Ripa got emotional as she revealed she isn’t on speaking terms with two of her kids who refuse to give her a hug amid self-isolation.

The past few weeks have been emotional for many people with all the stress and bad news amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Nearly every country has been on pause as many observe self-isolation to curb the spread of the deadly virus that has already infected more than one million people globally.

KELLY’S SELF-ISOLATION UPDATE

During the “Live with Kelly and Ryan” show on Wednesday, Kelly Ripa teared up as she revealed that some of her children “won’t hug her” while in quarantine at home.

The 49-year-old mom shared that she was “currently not speaking to two of my three kids,” but didn’t mention if it was her daughter Lola or sons, Michael and Joaquin. She said:

“I haven’t gotten to hug my parents. I want to hug my parents. And my kids like, won’t hug me. And I’m like, ‘Guys, we’ve all been in lockdown together.’”

“We’re fine. You can give me a hug,” Ripa continued to tell her kids, yet they refused. Ripa apologized to Ryan Seacrest, whom she was talking to through video chat, for being emotional.

LIFE ON PAUSE

Since precautionary measures were taken as the virus continues to spread, every event was postponed and every individual was encouraged to self-isolate.

The celebrity couple joins other stars such as Lady Gaga, Pink, Ryan Reynolds, and his wife, Blake Lively, in giving monetary support as the entire world fights against the deadly pandemic.

Included in the many things put on hold was Ripa’s son’s college graduation, which was supposedly in a few weeks.

The host’s father also delayed his knee surgery for safety reasons. Ripa acknowledged that the postponed events in her family’s life are small things compared to the problems several people are facing.

KELLY AND MARK DONATE $1 MILLION

Along with several other celebrities and public figures, Ripa and her husband, Mark Consuelos, extended help to those in need during this difficult time.

The couple reportedly donated a sum of $1 million to help provide for those who can’t afford basic needs and hospitals that need ventilators.

America is currently the leading country with the most number of infected citizens, with New York City being struck the hardest.
