Let's talk about Kelly Ripa and her husband, Mark Consuelos, who are definitely keeping things interesting in 2024. Just a couple weeks after their holiday card made waves on the internet, the co-hosts of "Live With Kelly and Mark" decided to turn up the heat with a sizzling photo in swimsuits. Talk about knowing how to make a splash!
In a playful Instagram post from January 7, Kelly, 53, joked with her caption, “Greetings from Captains Underpants (One last swim).” This was clearly a nod to the controversy surrounding their previous Christmas card, where Kelly’s fashion choice—or lack thereof—stirred up a storm of comments. Now, she's back, showing off her confidence in a stylish black one-piece swimsuit adorned with a white floral pattern, while Mark, 52, flexes his toned physique in some sleek black swim trunks. Talk about couple goals!
What Fans Had to Say
The internet is always full of opinions, and this photo was no exception. One fan commented, “Mother of holy hotness!” while another chimed in with, “You should have played Barbie & Ken!!” Clearly, the couple’s chemistry and charm are still winning hearts. But let’s not forget the controversy that sparked from their previous Christmas photo where Kelly was seen sans pants. Fans couldn’t help but ask, “Why is she in her underwear?” But here’s the thing—Kelly was actually rocking some chic swimsuit bottoms paired with a festive Christmas T-shirt. It just goes to show how easily things can get misconstrued online.

Of course, there were those who couldn’t resist teasing Mark. “Why can’t we see Mark in his underwear? That would be the greatest gift of all times,” one commenter joked. It seems like fans are just as eager to see Mark strut his stuff as they are to admire Kelly’s elegance.
Relaxation Time with Family
Despite the hullabaloo over her holiday look, Kelly seems unfazed by the negativity. In fact, she and Mark took some much-needed time off for a beach getaway, where they truly embraced the relaxation vibes. Kelly gave fans a sneak peek into their vacation through her Instagram Stories, leading up to the steamy swimsuit photo that everyone's buzzing about.
On Monday, January 8, during an episode of "Live," Kelly and Mark revealed that their entire family joined them on this tropical adventure. Their three kids—Michael, Lola, and Joaquin—along with their significant others, made the trip even more special. It’s clear that the former "All My Children" stars are thrilled with their children's choices in partners.
“I have to say, our kids have such good taste,” Kelly proudly told the audience. Mark couldn’t agree more, adding, “They have good pickers.” It sounds like the whole family had a blast, with everyone staying in separate rooms to maintain their privacy. Kelly admitted, “We didn’t know how it was going to go, you know what I mean? You just don’t know. But everybody seemed so nice during dinner, and it turned out beautifully. It was so nice.”
