If anyone can sport a monocle in style, it’s Kelly Ripa (and Mr. Peanut, of course), and her husband and co-host Mark Consuelos jokingly claimed that her eyesight may soon require her to have one.

On Live with Kelly and Mark this morning, the two discussed what someone’s favorite literary genre says about them. Consuelos told Ripa, who revealed her favorite books to be “historical biographies,” that this reportedly implies that she’s “least likely to have worries.”

Ripa refuted, “Oh, I worry an awful lot. I read the biography and I’m like, ‘This is just like today!'”

Consuelos replied that the study must be “wrong,” then shared that “on average, respondents spent 10 hours a week reading.”

“You do that,” he claimed to Ripa, who clarified, “At least.”

Consuelos highlighted that his wife and co-host is especially an avid reader while on vacation, and Ripa pointed out that there was an “extraordinary library” where they recently stayed in Iceland. Although she couldn’t find time to read there, Consuelos said that he often enjoys watching his wife get wrapped up in a good read.

“You’re in it,” he said. “You’ve got your trifocals on.”

As laughter erupted among the audience, Ripa couldn’t help but grin.

“My kids call them my Sherlock Holmes glasses,” she added. “It’s literally like a Sherlock Holmes looking glass, but in glasses.”

Consuelos teased, “Pretty soon you’re gonna have a monocle,” as he pretended to be Ripa squinting over a page. However, Ripa admitted that she actually owns one.

“I do have a monocle, by the way!” she revealed. “I don’t want to brag, but I do have a monocle.”
