Kelly Ripa Revealed Intimate Way Her Husband Mark Consuelos Deals with Stress
This week, Mark Consuelos joined his wife, Kelly Ripa, as a guest host on her show for a very special segment. During the episode, Ripa revealed the physical way her husband distressed.
On Monday, Kelly Ripa hosted her husband, Mark Consuelos, as a guest host on her show, “Live with Kelly and Ryan.” The show had a segment where the pair discussed the series “Scenes From a Marriage.”
The new HBO show discusses things like hatred, monogamy, love, desire, divorce, and marriage. Ripa confessed that her husband would not have allowed any marital drama they saw while watching episode two.

The television personality revealed that Consuelos would’ve asked her if she was upset and then informed her he knew how to deal with that. Even if she felt overworked, the “Riverdale” actor knew the remedy.
Ripa jokingly dragged out her husband’s secret remedy leaving the audience in stitches. Consuelos interjected to finish her sentence by saying he resolved tensions with “love,” but she corrected him by adding:
"Love and sexy time."

The actor protested that “sexy time” wasn’t his only remedy for everything, but his wife confirmed that he used it for almost everything. Clearly, that’s the secret ingredient to keep a relationship going after 25 years!
Carrying on exposing him, Ripa said her husband had sex on the mind all the time. She shared how he often thought couples in films or shows would end up hooking up whenever they had a tense moment.
Consuelos defended himself by noting how children would hope people would have sex whenever they were shot and killed. He called it a human reaction before his wife said the CW show was practically soft porn!

Eventually, the actor gave in and admitted that intimacy was his way of dealing with stress. During the show, Consuelos was sitting in for Ripa’s full-time co-host, Ryan Seacrest.
One can’t blame Consuelos for desiring his wife, especially when she still looks so good in everything she wears. During the show, she was dressed in a black button-down top and gray high-waist pants.
Her look was finished off with pumps, but she proved she also looked good in swimwear before that. In an Instagram video post from their vacation, Ripa wore a monochrome checked swimsuit.
The couple recently became empty-nesters after their youngest child, Joaquin, moved out of the house in August to attend university. Besides him, they're also parents to older children, son Michael, and daughter Lola.
