Kelly Ripa And Mark Consuelos Jet To Africa

Since Live With Kelly And Mark hosts, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ daughter, Lola moved to London, they have become jet-setting fiends. Often, now the couple will hop on flights to Italy or Africa to take a quick getaway. When fans heard Lola was in Morocco several days ago, it came as no surprise her parents jumped on a plane to meet up with her over the weekend. Likewise, this is becoming the new norm for Kelly and Mark. For instance, Mark took a fast trip to Italy to join Lola for a weekend trip as well. But their quick escape doubles as a perfect meet-up with Lola and a celebration for friends. During the weekend, the couple attended the wedding of friends Joe Machota and Michael Russell. Notably, many fans recognize Joe Machota as Scarlett Johansson‘s agent.

Kelly Ripa Has Feelings Of Devastation After Reaching Home

She tells the audience, “I was in Africa just a few short hours before…I’ve never been to Africa before. It was so exciting!” Although she went through proper protocols, she later discovered the stamp on her passport was faint. She explains, “It was not very inky. You can barely see it. I’m very devastated! You can barely see I was there. It upsets me.” For avid travelers, that first stamp at a new location is irreplaceable. Notably, she points out she doesn’t go to Africa every day and this makes it like she almost wasn’t there at all.

  • One fan tries to make it a little better by saying, “This is proof you went. It’s documented on @livekellyandmark ❤️❤️ #eargasmsgroupfb.”
  • Another fan attempts to soften the blow, “Absolutely 🫶🏼👑👑But you know you were there most importantly.”
