Kelly Ripa has dropped another bombshell about her love life with her husband, Mark Consuelos.
The TV personality revealed that she finds morning sex with him "disgusting" and also thinks morning kisses are far from sexy.
Kelly Ripa has also previously admitted that if they were ever to divorce, she wouldn't date again or ever get naked in front of another sexual partner.
During her appearance on Tuesday's episode of Amanda Hirsch's "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast, Ripa gave fans a peek into her sex life with husband Mark Consuelos, revealing that, unlike him, she is not a fan of morning sex.
"I find it disgusting," Ripa told host Hirsch about her distaste for morning sex before revealing that her 54-year-old husband prefers it at that time, per Page Six.
The "Live with Kelly and Mark" star then acknowledged that she is well aware men tend to prefer morning sex. However, she admitted that over time, she grew tired of this arrangement with her husband and eventually had a conversation with him about switching things up occasionally.
"I said to him, 'Here's the thing,'" Ripa recalled the discussion, "'there needs to be a yin and a yang here. It can't always be your way. 'Cause it feels like 90 percent of the time it's your way. And now that we work together every day, it's gonna have to sometimes be my way, and my way's at night only.'"
Beyond asking for sex in the morning, Ripa claimed that Consuelos also tries to kiss her during those moments.
But similar to her distaste for morning sex, she also doesn't like morning kisses, which she described as unsexy.
"I have a retainer in. I gotta rip that out," Ripa explained to her host. "And he's got his nasal strips on. It's like we are the most repulsive, disgusting [people]."
Fortunately for Ripa, now that she and Consuelos have an early morning show together, he seems to have lost interest in the morning sex routine.
"The greatest thing about this job, this thing has like, almost repulsed him from morning time during the workweek," the TV personality said, adding that it is "like a miracle."
Gushing further about her good fortune, Ripa jokingly said she hopes their show lasts "until Consuelos suffers from erectile dysfunction."
In that moment, she seemed to realize her husband's age and playfully asked Hirsch why Consuelos, despite being in his fifties, wasn't showing any signs of impotence.
"Shouldn't that be happening now? I was promised!" Ripa laughed aloud.
Despite a few pet peeves about their sex life, the couple has managed to stay in love ever since they first fell for each other on the set of the hit soap opera "All My Children."
However, Ripa has previously shared that if they were to divorce, she has no plans to date again.
"Let's just say you were to leave me. I can say with 100% certainty that dating is out of the question," Ripa told Consuelos on an episode of their show earlier in the month, per People Magazine.
"I've had three kids, there's too much to explain," she added, referencing her kids with Consuelos, namely, Michael, Lola, and Joaquin.
Opening up about what her sex life would look like after a divorce, Ripa joked that she has no plans to ever be naked in front of a partner again.
"I'm not ever getting naked again - and I resent having to get naked in front of you sometimes," Ripa said to her husband, who found her remarks amusing. "I'm like: 'No, no, no. Light out. You can wait until dark. Also, turn off that light, and also turn off your cell phone light.' I want it pitch-black in here. And no unexpected touching!"
However, unlike Ripa, Consuelos appears to have a different perspective on what his post-divorce life will look like.
Earlier this year, Ripa said on their show that Consuelos would "absolutely fall apart, completely" if they ever divorced.
At the time, Consuelos agreed that it was the most likely scenario but joked that there would probably be some interested ladies who would come around to help fill the void and help him cope with the emotional fallout.
"I do feel like someone would be there on the other end just to pick me up and make sure I'm okay. I'd have to get used to their college schedule and all that stuff," Consuelos teased Ripa.
