Kelly Ripa Reacts Son Is One of the “Sexiest People in the World”

Kelly Ripa was stunned to learn that her 25-year-old son Michael, whom she shares with her husband Mark Consuelos, was named one of People’s Sexiest People Alive.

Ryan Seacrest delivered the message to his partner on the day Wednesday episode “Live with Kelly and Ryan”, where he exclaimed, “I’m falling over [the issue] … and I can see this “Gen Next” page … Michael is one of the “sexiest people in the world”.

Seacrest showed the camera page that shows Michael modeling in a green jacket next to an old photo of his dad when he was his son’s age.

Ripa, 52, responded in utter amazement as she examined the page where her son had a smoldering expression on his face.

“Are you joking?” Ripa asked, adding “Give it to me” before snatching the magazine from Seacrest’s hands for a closer look.

She put on her glasses to browse the page and read the note about her son.

“You’d think he would tell us to buy some for the grandparents,” said Ripa.

She then shared that she always forgets that her son and her husband look alike until she sees their photos side by side as they were displayed on the page.

“This is crazy,” she said, then read her son’s description in the magazine.

“Michael respects his father’s work ethic,” Ripa read from the page before showing a confused face in front of the camera and joking, “Yes, he worked one day last week.”

She continued reading: “I admire my dad’s organization and timeliness. Growing up, we were always very early, and if I’m not early then I’m a little freaked out. ”

Ripa shared, “It’s true. Mark made us all time crazy. If we are not two hours late, we will be late.

She then admired her son’s amazing qualities that make her a proud mother.

Michael Consuelos. I’ve always considered you a handsome young man. Conscientious, hard-working, diligent, respectful, ”she said. But then she whispered, “I had no idea you were considered sexy.”

Seacrest then reminded Ripa that she should be proud that her son won the title.

“No, I know,” said Ripa, adding, “I’ve always found his father sexy.”

Seacrest replied, “Well … an apple, a tree.”

The host of American Idol also made fun of Michael’s photo and his lack of clothes.

“I love that green hunting jacket, no shirt, I didn’t have time to put my shirt on this morning, I didn’t think about it, just a jacket, but I forgot my shirt,” quipped Seacrest.

Meanwhile, Chris Evans was voted People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive on Tuesday.

Ripa has raved about her eldest son in the past, sharing how proud she was of him after graduating from New York University in May 2020.

She caught the heat of 2019 for Micahel experiencing “extreme poverty” for the first time after moving to Bushwick, Brooklyn, where he was paying his own rent.

But Ripa defended her words by saying that she only meant that this was the first time Michael was in the world, supporting himself.

“Michael is going to college, he’s a senior, and he works full time. He is in his first subsidized apartment without parents with roommates, “she said then. “I’m used to being slack because people love to get outraged over something they haven’t seen. They only read the headlines and wave their tired fingers.

She added: “I didn’t grow up in a privileged position, and neither did @instasuelos,” she added, referring to her husband. “We work and we expect our children to do as well. And the fact that a bunch of fools want to complain about it, I say let them.

Ripa and Mark, 51, married in 1996 and have three children: Michael, Lola, 21, and Joaquin, 19.
