Kelly Ripa Realizes Something Sad About Mark

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos took a vacation before Easter weekend, which meant they had to pre-record a couple of episodes of Live for the end of the week.

Despite the show not being taped live, Kelly shared some of her feelings regarding Mark Consuelos’ upcoming birthday. The All My Children alum will be 53 years old.

Mark Consuelos made a big deal out of his wife Kelly Ripa’s birthday back in October. He put on a show at Live for her b-day and Kelly revealed that she’s sad she can’t do the same for him for his big day.

There is one reason she won’t be able to: Mark’s birthday falls on a Saturday this year. It is March 30. This is the first year that he’ll be on air with Live on his birthday. Mark Consuelos took over for co-host Ryan Seacrest after he decided to depart from the morning talk show last spring.

As she was announcing his birthday on the prerecorded show, she realized that they wouldn’t get to do something special. “Since it’s Friday, we won’t be here tomorrow for your birthday… no cake!” Kelly Ripa said to her hubby.

Looking shocked, Mark exclaimed, “No cake!” Kelly continued, “That makes me very sad.” She stated that she wanted to celebrate his big day with everyone on the show, including a cake and everything else that comes with a birthday celebration.

There Is Plenty To Celebrate On Live 

Trying to cheer her up, Mark said, “Every day is my birthday.” His wife laughed and said he was right. It was “like his birthday” every time they played Stump Mark on Live.

He has grown to love the game that took over Live‘s trivia portion of the show. Each day, a viewer calls in and tries to stump Mark Consuelos. He has gotten pretty good at it and claims he “can’t lose.” Those who are able to stump him win a t-shirt and mug (and bragging rights, of course). It isn’t as glamorous as the trips they give away on Live, but it has become a fan-favorite part of the show.

Although they aren’t getting to celebrate Mark’s birthday on the show, his one-year anniversary on Live is coming up. Maybe Kelly Ripa will have a cake and a party for him then to make up for it.
