Kelly Ripa's creative countdown to her husband and fellow star Mark Consuelos' 50th birthday has been a chronicling of steamy throwback photos of him, which she has been sharing to fans on Instagram.

The star who shares three kids with Consuelos has been flaunting alluring photos of the "Riverdale" actor on her Instagram page, and it is safe to say that the images are playboy-worthy.

In one of her posts, Ripa and Consuelos seemed to have been on a vacation as they were photographed on a tropical beach sharing a searing kiss. The post's caption read:

"#fbf 2011 a light PDA moment in celebration of #MC40. ? countdown to #MC50 which will be a virtual celebration this year."

In another of her posts, Ripa showed her husband spending time with their kids as they flaunted the striking resemblance among them. She indicated in her caption that Consuelos's birthday countdown was down to one day.

Since Ripa and her husband returned to work, they have been busy and staying apart.

Consuelos, in return, had a response for his long-time spouse sharing photos of them when they were a younger couple. He made the first photo a replica of Ripa's sizzling post.

Here, the pair were photographed on a beach, warming up to each other and locked in a kiss. The following slide showed them enjoying a sweet moment as they looked ahead.

More of Consuelos's sizzling post appeared on Ripa's Instagram story where she showed fans how her husband enjoyed winning during vacations. Consuelos' chiseled body was on display in many of the images.

Since Ripa and her husband returned to work, they have been busy and staying apart. While she worked on "Live with Kelly and Ryan," Consuelos was away in Canada filming "Riverdale."

Ripa once exemplified a scenario. She stated that if she got two weeks off work to visit Consuelos in Vancouver, she would have to spend the two weeks in isolation, and by the time she was free to see him, work calls.

On the other hand, the former "Hope and Faith" actress has been able to visit her parents and spend some cherished time with them, catching up on updates and staying safe.
