On February 20, 2026, Kelly Ripa celebrated her 25th anniversary hosting LIVE with a surprise from her youngest son, Joaquin Consuelos. Joaquin appeared in a video message, having secretly entered the family's $27 million New York City townhouse.
He greeted his mother from inside the home, mentioning he had just returned from rehearsal for "Death of a Salesman" before wishing her well. Kelly and her husband, Mark Consuelos, previously showcased their opulent Upper East Side residence in Architectural Digest.
Describing it as her "forever home," Kelly expressed deep affection for the townhouse, which they purchased 12 years prior. The couple has enjoyed their empty nest, though they maintain a connection to their children, Michael, Lola, and Joaquin, through portraits of their eyes displayed in the hallway.
Joaquin is also set to appear in Hulu's upcoming pilot "Foster Dade." The family's home boasts a white marble kitchen and a coffee station for their "fussy" habits.
