Ripa was in agreement but noted that 'men are morning people,' and in particular, Consuelos wants to have sex 'only in the morning,' which the former All My Children star deemed 'disgusting.' She added of her husband of 29 years: 'He'll never learn,' she jokingly added. 'He's a guy.' But Consuelos has had to change his way of thinking after taking over as Kelly's co-host in April 2023. 'I said to him, 'Here's the thing, there needs to be a yin and a yang here. It can't always be your way. 'Cause it feels like 90 per cent of the time it's your way. And now that we work together every day, it's going to have to sometimes be my way, and my way's at night only.'' Ripa added that Consuelos also enjoys kissing her in the morning, which she doesn't love. 'I have a retainer in. I gotta rip that out,' she said. 'And he's got his nasal strips on. It's like we are the most repulsive, disgusting [people].' But Ripa noted that men 'don't care' about things like that and that the 'd*** has a brain of its own.' She jokingly added: 'I'm already pre-disgusted for tomorrow morning.' A post shared by Amanda Hirsch (@notskinnybutnotfat) While Ripa revealed the pair don't have sex every morning, she said there has been an unexpected benefit to working with her husband. 'The greatest thing about this job, this thing has like, almost repulsed him from morning time during the work week, which is like a miracle,' she said. 'May this show last until he suffers from erectile dysfunction,' she jokingly added, pointing out that now that he's in his mid-50s but impotence has yet to be an issue. 'Shouldn't that be happening now? I was promised!' Ripa did share her and Consuelos' secret to keeping things spicy after nearly three decades of marriage. 'It's like exercise. The more you do it, the more you do it,' she said of having sex. 'You just have to do it, and then you're like, 'Oh! I remember why I like this.'' The couple met on the set of All My Children in 1995, started dating shortly after, and tied the knot the following year. They have three children — Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22.

Kelly Ripa gets candid on intimacy over podcast–not a Morning Person when it comes to Mark Consuelos
Kelly Ripa recently shared a candid and humorous take on her and Mark Consuelos' intimacy preferences during an appearance on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. The Live with Kelly and Mark host, 54, revealed that she and Consuelos, 54, often disagree on when to be intimate, with her husband preferring the deed done in the morning, a time Ripa finds less than appealing. During the podcast, Ripa posed a question to host Amanda Hirsch: 'Are you an evening person or a morning person?' Hirsch quickly replied, 'Definitely not morning. Do not breathe on me in the morning.' Ripa then explained that men, like Consuelos, tend to be 'morning people' when it comes to the 'deed', which she admitted she finds 'disgusting.' 'I have a retainer in, I gotta rip that out,' she joked. 'And he's got his nasal strips on. It's like we are the most repulsive, disgusting people.' Despite her aversion, Ripa noted that it's important for both partners to find a balance, adding that while Consuelos tends to prefer early-morning intimacy, she's firmly in the 'night' camp. Ripa went on to share that working together on their morning talk show has unexpectedly curtailed some of Consuelos' morning preferences. "The greatest thing about this job, this thing has, like, almost repulsed him from morning time during the work week," she joked. Ripa added that she's hoping their work schedule keeps him away from morning intimacy, even jokingly wishing, 'May this show last until he suffers from erectile dysfunction!' The couple, married for 26 years, has always been open about their relationship, which began when they met on the set of All My Children in 1994. Despite their busy careers and differing preferences, Ripa and Consuelos continue to share a strong bond. The couple has three children: Michael, Lola, and Joaquin, and they often reflect on how their relationship has evolved over the years. In earlier interviews, Ripa has discussed how their connection grew from a deep understanding and shared sense of humor, making their dynamic both comfortable and fun.

Kelly Ripa shuts down Mark Consuelos' 'repulsive' morning habit
There's one prevalent bedroom tendency that Kelly Ripa just can't get behind. During an appearance on the "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast, Ripa discussed evening versus morning sex, with the talk show veteran telling host Amanda Hirsch that she finds her husband Mark Consuelos' preference for morning intimacy "disgusting." "Men are morning people. He hasn't learned, he'll never learn," Ripa, 54, said of her husband of 29 years. "He wants to kiss. And I have a retainer in. And he's got his nasal strips on. It's like we are the most repulsive, disgusting. I'm already pre-disgusted for tomorrow morning." She added: "I said to him, 'There needs to be a yin and a yang here. It can't always be your way. 'Cause it feels like 90% of the time it's your way." Kelly Ripa says 'life becomes nudity' during empty nesting on 'Live with Kelly & Mark' The "Live with Kelly and Mark" cohost said that after the couple began working together, she started to push for "night only" sex. The early call times for the show have "almost repulsed" Consuelos, 54, from morning sex completely. "It's so early, and it's like a miracle. It's like a miracle has occurred," she said. Ripa said elsewhere in the interview that her outlook for keeping one's sex life active, which originated with her TV producer years prior, is to think of it like exercise, where consistency makes it more enjoyable. "The more you do it, the more you do it," she said. "And so, you just have to do it and then you're like, 'Oh, I remember why I like this.'" Consistent sex can also sustain a relationship. Called "maintenance sex," it has plenty of benefits. Research has shown that couples who have sex at least once a week are happier than couples who don't. Sex also releases endorphins to create a feeling of closeness between partners. What is maintenance sex and when does it become a problem? "It's an opportunity for people to engage in fun, affirming sexual touch even if it doesn't come from the deep rutting urge it came from when the relationship was new," Allison Moon, author of "Getting It: A Guide to Hot Healthy Hookups and Shame-free Sex," previously told USA TODAY.
