About

Kelly Ripa is a television host, actress and producer best known for her role on the soap opera All My Children and for cohosting the long-running daytime talk show Live! With Kelly and Mark. Ripa was born in Stratford, New Jersey, where she attended Eastern Regional High School and developed an interest in acting and dance. After graduating, she moved to New York City to pursue an entertainment career, landing an early role as a dancer on Dancin’ On Air.

Ripa landed her breakout role as Hayley Vaughan on All My Children in 1990, quickly becoming a fan favorite on the ABC soap. In 2001, she joined Live With Regis and Kelly alongside Regis Philbin, helping transform the morning program into one of daytime television’s most successful franchises. Over the years, the show evolved into Live With Kelly and Ryan with Ryan Seacrest and later Live With Kelly and Mark alongside her husband, Mark Consuelos. Ripa has earned multiple Daytime Emmy Awards for her hosting work and has expanded into producing through Milojo Productions, which she founded with Consuelos in 2007.

In addition to Live, Ripa has appeared on shows like Hope & Faith, Broad City and Riverdale. She published her memoir Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories in 2022, which became a New York Times bestseller.

Ripa met Consuelos while starring together on All My Children, and the couple eloped in Las Vegas in 1996. They share three children: son Michael (born in 1997), daughter Lola (born in 2001) and son Joaquin (born in 2003).
