Kelly Ripa opens up about her husband
On the first edition of her SiriusXM podcast Let’s Chat Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, Ripa noted, “It’s very hard being married to someone who is envious.”
The 26-year marriage of Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos has had its ups and downs, including some difficulties that the couple has had to overcome.
On the first episode of Kelly Ripa’s new Sirius XM podcast Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, which debuted on Wednesday, the couple talked about their love and how they overcame some challenging moments by talking things out.
when you’re pissed on the phone, you hang up.”
“That’s awful. Ripa earlier asserted that she and Consuelos were “bad arguers” and occasionally needed to communicate more efficiently. “It’s terrible,” she stated on her podcast. That came from my upbringing, I guess. I come from a well-known family of hangers-on.
Everyone experiences ups and downs, as Ripa acknowledged. It never just happens to be even or flat. I compared it to a heartbeat, saying that if it flatlines, the person is definitely dead.
The couple, who have three children—son Michael, 25, Joaquin, 20, and daughter Lola, 21—also visits a marriage therapist, particularly now that they are empty-nesters.
Consuelos declared, “I’m a lifer; I want to be married for the rest of my life.” Yet after the distraction is over, I think you’ll be stuck in a house with only me. And I desired to attend counseling in order to resolve some of the problems we had been battling for 26 years.
Consuelos claims that talking to a counselor has assisted them in getting rid of their bad habits.
One of the greatest advantages of marriage counseling, he said, “especially when things are good and you want them to get better,” is that it makes you think twice about your old habits and behaviors. “I knew that within a week or five days, I would be accountable to somebody and that person would look at me like, ‘You want to explain that?’” he said.
Consuelos & Ripa’s Milojo Productions collaborates with SiriusXM to present Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa. The initial guests on the show include Matthew McConaughey, Andy Cohen, Carol Burnett, and Anderson Cooper.
