Mark Consuelos confesses to wife Kelly Ripa that he shared a ‘passionate’ kiss with ANOTHER WOMAN as the couple celebrates their 28th wedding anniversary

Mark Consuelos has shocked Kelly Ripa with an on-air confession revealing he shared a “passionate kiss” with a football fan over the weekend.

The 53-year-old co-host of LIVE With Kelly And Mark admitted he gave a stranger a hug as he celebrated the victory of his football club Campobasso, who would move up to the third division.

While speaking to the audience and Kelly – to whom he just celebrated 28 years – he revealed that he closed his eyes and kissed the fan, who he called “someone else’s aunt.”

He recalled the special hug and shared a raft of details about the moment his foot flew up while they were canoodling before Kelly questioned whether the incident ever happened as she begged to see footage of the cock.

Mark admitted that he got so caught up in celebrations and just planted one on the fan.

He explained that after his team won, which was a “big deal,” he “ran to our fans” and ran into the plexiglass barrier, which came up because victories “become very dramatic in Italian football.”

“In the admiration, in the celebration, on the field, when we found out the other team drew and we are champions… we ran to our fans,” Mark said.

“I’m running and I see this lady. Let’s call her my aunt… maybe someone else’s aunt. Not my aunt. Someone else’s aunt. And we look at each other and she’s so excited. And there’s this glass, and we get to the glass, and you know what? I kissed her.’

Meanwhile, Kelly didn’t believe his story and begged for proof.

The 53-year-old mother of three added: ‘Do we have footage of this? Don’t we have any images of it?’

And since there was no CCTV evidence, Mark continued to try to convince his beloved wife that the moment did indeed happen and that he wasn’t lying about the ‘passionate kiss’.

“I put one on her. It was a hug, but it was passionate,” he said before sharing a shocking detail.

“I actually closed my eyes,” he said before Kelly interjected, saying, “That’s not happening. You never close your eyes!’

‘I closed my eyes and my back foot went up. I put one on her.”

His wife replied, “That’s unbelievable. Open-mouthed?’

‘No no. It was like a hug. “But it was passionate,” Mark insisted.

Meanwhile, Kelly began to speculate about his “emotional affair.”

“Did you have an emotional affair?” Kelly said, prompting Mark to quickly backtrack and add, “No.” By the way, it could be a man. Don’t know.’

Kelly jokingly added, “Don’t try to save yourself now. You’ve already qualified this as someone’s aunt.”

Kelly and Mark became investors in the Italian football club in 2022. Within their first season of ownership, the team won 28 of 30 games.

On Wednesday, Mark and Kelly celebrated their 28th anniversary together.

Mark took to Instagram to dedicate a post to his wife. Alongside a series of photos, he said: “Forever grateful that you decided to take this crazy, beautiful ride with me. Happy 28th anniversary. Love you.’

Last week, the couple called into their daytime talk show LIVE with Kelly and Mark for a year.

Mark replaced Ryan Seacrest, who had co-hosted the show with Kelly since 2017 before announcing he was leaving the show in February 2023.

The first episode of LIVE With Kelly and Mark aired on April 17, 2023 Deadline showing that it was only one of two daytime talk shows to improve average total viewership from a year earlier.

Mark also spoke to the outlet and revealed, “I have to say this is probably the fastest year of my life.”

Kelly also recalled that she was “firmly against” making her husband the permanent cohost, even though he had guest-hosted more than 100 times.
