Kelly Ripa is putting Mark Consuelos on blast.

Specifically, she called him out for recently preventing her from having a restful night. 

"Mark kept me awake all night last night," she said on the March 20 episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, as the audience started oooing. "No no, it's not that, it's not what you think."

Mark chimed in, jokingly calling the crowd "disgusting," before Kelly continued with the real reason her husband of 27 years kept her awake.

"You were very," she began before pausing," vocal last night. A lot of sounds. A lot of snoring. I put in my noise cancelling head phones. Normally they work beautifully, but they did not work last night."

Kelly added, "You could not be deterred. You would not be stopped."

Not even her Dateline podcast could drown on Mark's noises, with the 53-year-old adding that she "couldn't hear Keith Morrison over the snoring."

Finally, she resorted to physical measures. "I started jostling you, and jiggling you," she explained, "and some light kicking, and some light slamming on the bed next to you."

When Mark quipped, "Maybe I was dying," Kelly quickly shut down the Riverdale alum's suggestion, replying, "No, you were not dying."

This is not the first time the couple—who share kids Michael, 26, Lola, 22, and Joaquin, 21—have brought their personal lives to their morning talk show. After all, since Mark joined as cohost last year, they have shared insight into into their marriage.

But sharing glimpses into their life comes naturally for the duo, who have spoken about their immediate connection after meeting on the set of All My Children in 1995.

"I don't know how I knew, but I knew that we would be together forever," she told E! News in 2022. "I had a cognizant thought of that in my head, which still doesn't make any sense to me."

The couple have come a long way together since that first meeting. Keep reading to more of their sweet family moments.

Empty Nest, No Problem

For the first September in at least 20 years that she didn't have a kid to see off to school, Kelly filled the void with a throwback from 2008.

"Looks like @instasuelos just found out he won't be @joaquinconsuelos roommate in the fall," Kelly teased during a trip to Ann Arbor before Joaquin started at University of Michigan.

Kelly took a few days off in March 2022 to watch the Wolverines compete in the Division 1 Wrestling Championships in Detroit.

Still a freshman, Joaquin didn't wrestle this time, but still, Kelly said on Live upon her return, "It took years off my life watching these young men."

Generational Health

The whole family finally made it to Greece and Italy in June 2021 after the pandemic had other plans in 2020.

"Last year's graduation trip for our oldest son and niece was delayed long enough to become a graduation trip for the family newborns as well," Kelly shared.

I hope you have the greatest day ever. You're a badass and an inspiration to everyone. Also, when I call you a T. Rex, I mean it as a compliment. You should know that by now."

History Repeating

In August 2020, Kelly Ripa shared an epic recreation of an old family photo from 2003 on Instagram. With youngest son Joaquin on her lap and older kids Michael and Lola perfectly in place, we'd say they nailed it despite the fact that, as Kelly noted, "objects may appear larger."
