Kelly Ripa Shares Her Disgust Toward Husband Mark Consuelos’ Preference for Morning Sex

Kelly Ripa recently expressed her strong distaste for her husband’s desire to have sex exclusively in the mornings. During an appearance on a podcast, she detailed her personal feelings and the dynamics of their sex life after nearly 30 years of marriage.

Ripa revealed that her husband, also 54, prefers to have sex only in the morning, which she finds “disgusting.” She jokingly remarked that she often finds their morning routines unsexy, especially with her retaining her dental device and him with nasal strips. She humorously described themselves as “the most repulsive, disgusting people,” highlighting the mundane and unromantic reality of their intimacy.

She shared that she had to set boundaries with her husband, explaining that sometimes their sex life needed to be at night instead of the morning. “I told him, ‘There needs to be a yin and a yang. It can’t always be your way. Because it feels like 90 percent of the time it’s your way. Now that we’re working together daily, it might have to be my way—at night only,'” she recounted.

Kelly also mentioned that her husband’s morning kisses, which she finds unappealing, are just part of their routine. She joked about her readiness by saying, “I have a retainer in. I gotta rip that out.” Their playful banter extends to the fact that they’ve become quite the “freak show,” often letting their appearance drop in bed for intimacy.

Despite the humorous complaints, Ripa emphasized that their sex life remains lively. She likened it to exercise: “The more you do it, the more you want to do it. You just have to do it, and then you’ll remember why you like it.” She also attributed their long-lasting intimacy to simply making the effort regularly, despite life’s busyness, including raising their three children and working together on their morning show.

In conclusion, Ripa’s candid discussion underscores that even a successful marriage requires compromise, humor, and the understanding that intimacy might not always fit perfectly into a busy schedule. Nonetheless, she humorously hopes her husband’s preference for mornings persists until he suffers from erectile dysfunction, jokingly lightening the tone of their ongoing bedroom banter.
