LIVE Kelly Ripa Reveals Husband’s Bad Habit That Nearly Led To Divorce
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ romance is a real-life fairy tale. They met when he joined the ABC soap opera All My Children in 1995 as her character’s love interest. Love blossomed off-screen as well. The soap stars eloped to Las Vegas in 1996 and created quite the life together.
They share three children, all of whom are pursuing careers in entertainment. With their kids out of the nest, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos dote on their beloved dog, Lena. In fact, he said that the dog is the reason why he will never divorce Kelly Ripa. In a candid moment on LIVE, his wife shared the bad habit that nearly caused her to divorce him.
Kelly Ripa previously opened up about how an “airport divorce” saved her marriage. Couples split up at the airport to do their own thing, then meet at the gate right before the flight. Now, she shared her thoughts on a “sleep divorce.”
Most couples have at least one partner who snores obnoxiously. Kelly Ripa revealed on a recent episode of the talk show that Mark Consuelos developed a bad snoring habit in the last few years. She cited studies that show sleeping in separate bedrooms can help save a marriage.
However, she likened sleeping in separate bedrooms as “punishment” for snoring. “I am married to someone who took up snoring. Truly, truly, I’m not kidding. He hit 45 and took to snoring. And I was like, ‘What is this? What is happening here?’ But even that has not driven us to separate beds,” she told guest host Steve Patterson. The guest co-host agreed that sleeping in different beds from his wife feels “too separate,” per Radar Online.
Mark Consuelos can snore all he wants to, but Kelly Ripa refuses to let it come between their cuddle time.
Kelly Ripa Opens Up About Her Home’s Death Trap
The LIVE with Kelly and Mark hosts bought a $27 million townhouse in NYC’s Upper East Side in 2013. Kelly Ripa described it as her final home because she loves it so much. However, it may be the reason she dies.
She told LIVE viewers about a death trap in the pricey home. The shower is super slippery after she uses a luxurious body oil. “I know what my obituary will say. I will slip in the shower, and that will be the end of me,” she joked. When Kelly Ripa pointed out that the body oil is used up quickly, Mark Consuelos denied using it. “Yeah, I rarely put it on. I’ve put it on it 10 times in my life,” he claimed.
Kelly Ripa once joked that they’d have to take her out of the house “feet first,” but she didn’t mean after death by shower. The couple loves to share stories of their real-life marriage with television viewers. Do you agree with Kelly Ripa that snoring isn’t a marriage dealbreaker? Tell us in the comments.
