  • Kelly Ripa opened up about why she finds her husband Mark Consuelos’ preference for morning sex to be “disgusting” on a recent podcast appearance
  • The  Live with Kelly and Mark host joked that she and her husband of 26 years are both the “most repulsive” people in the mornings
  • Ripa also revealed how their sex schedule has changed since Consuelos became the co-host of their morning show

Kelly Ripa is spilling the tea about her husband Mark Consuelos’ bedroom preferences.

On the latest episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, the Live with Kelly and Mark host, 54, revealed that she and Consuelos, also 54, don’t always see eye to eye about when to have sex.

“I don’t know about you in your marriage, but I’m going to go personal. Are you an evening person or a morning person?” Ripa asked host Amanda Hirsch.

“Definitely not morning,” she replied. “Do not breathe on me in the morning.”

However, the television personality noted, “Men are morning people.”

“He’ll never learn,” she jokingly added. “He’s a guy.”

However, Consuelos has had to change his ways after taking over as co-host on Live with Kelly and Mark in April 2023.

“I said to him, ‘Here’s the thing,’” she explained. “‘There needs to be a yin and a yang here. It can’t always be your way. ‘Cause it feels like 90 percent of the time it’s your way. And now that we work together every day, it’s gonna have to sometimes be my way, and my way’s at night only.’”

“I have a retainer in. I gotta rip that out,” she admitted. “And he’s got his nasal strips on. It’s like we are the most repulsive, disgusting [people].”

While explaining that men “don’t care” about things, she added the “d— has a brain of its own” before joking, “I’m already pre-disgusted for tomorrow morning.”

While Ripa revealed the pair don’t have sex every morning, she said there has been an unexpected benefit to working with her husband.

“The greatest thing about this job, this thing has like, almost repulsed him from morning time during the work week,” she teased. “Which is like a miracle.”

“May this show last until he suffers from erectile dysfunction,” she jokingly added. “He’s in his mid-50s now. Shouldn’t that be happening now? I was promised!” 

“We found each other at the right time in our lives, we were really young,” said Ripa during an interview on SiriusXM Radio Andy show Quarantined with Bruce in 2020. “We learned each other well. And with that comes a certain level of comfort and confidence and experimentation. We have fun. We enjoy [each other].”

“You check off all the boxes for me,” added Consuelos.
