Ryan Seacrest Pokes Fun At Kelly Ripa’s Disappearance?

Ryan Seacrest made a joke at the expense of his missing co-host. Kelly Ripa has been off the show for another week. Celebrity guest hosts have filled in for her while she’s gone. Some fans are wondering if Kelly is planning on leaving the talk show for good.

Others think the show is in danger of cancellation. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, fans mocked Live with Kelly & Ryan for its blooper reels and blunders. They think the show is desperately trying to be silly in wake of the low ratings.

Read on to see what Ryan had to say about Kelly’s disappearance.

Kelly Ripa’s sexy Hamptons stay

Kelly Ripa has been sharing clips of her sexy Hamptons staycation with her husband Mark Consuelos. One of their Instagram Stories shows her hunky husband running in slow motion out of the water and toward her direction. She joked that someone ruined the shot. Kelly couldn’t stop gushing about her muscular man.

In another clip, Kelly Ripa bent over for her husband. The 51-year-old wore a black one-piece swimsuit. The pint-sized star stuck out her booty in his face. Meanwhile, Mark had a shocked expression on his face.

The two haven’t stopped sharing content from their Hamptons trip. They’re currently staying at their beach house. The couple doesn’t have any special plans. Kelly and Mark want to spend as much quality time together.

Earlier this summer, they had their first no-kids trip in decades. Kelly Ripa shared the details of their break on the talk show. They went rock climbing in Utah. This time, they want to have a sexy beach vacation. This is the second week that Kelly’s gone missing from the ABC-produced show.

Ryan Seacrest breaks his silence

Ryan Seacrest made a wisecrack about Kelly Ripa’s obvious disappearance. He explained why she’s been missing for two weeks. On Tuesday’s broadcast of Live with Kelly and Ryan, he looked at the camera and joked: “I heard she won the lottery.” He was joined by Scandal alum Katie Lowes.

The two co-hosts took part in a shopping segment. The actress showed off her pillows with names embroidered on them. One of the pillows read, “Consuelos.” Katie held up the pillow to the camera and said, “Kelly, we miss you. We got you a Consuelos one.”

Ryan looked into the camera and broke his silence about Kelly Ripa’s disappearance. He said, “I heard she won the lottery. She’s fine.” This comes after Kelly joked that if she won the Mega Millions that she wouldn’t return to the show. Ryan turned to the camera and said, “Tune in to find out.”

Kelly Ripa has gone missing ever since. Luke Bryan was the first celebrity co-host on Live with Kelly and Ryan. The country crooner joked, “Well, I’m not Ripa.” Ryan told Luke that he was excited to have the American Idol judge on the show. They’ve wanted to do this for a long time now.
