Kelly Ripa is spilling the tea on the type of women Mark Consuelos typically went after before meeting her.
On this morning’s episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, the actor’s dating history was front and center as the married couple discussed Max‘s new naked dating show, Naked Attraction. According to Consuelos, he can decide whether someone is compatible with him within the first few moments of meeting them.
“I could eliminate within two minutes of meeting someone,” he said. “I can tell that it’s not compatible. Not that it’s bad or wrong. It’s just not compatible.”
Despite this, his wife reminded him that he wasn’t the best at picking girlfriends before they met.
“Well, according to people in your past who shall remain nameless, you had a wild attraction to women who were not necessarily good for you. Let’s put it that way. Maybe not the most feet planted firmly on the ground,” Ripa explained, to which Consuelos replied in agreement, “But they’re exciting!”
When Ripa asked if he “had enough excitement” by the time he met her on the set of All My Children in the 1990s, he insisted that she was “just the right amount of exciting.” However, he wouldn’t get into details on how she excited him.
“You know, there were some things,” Consuelos said. “I have to be careful. That’s for off-camera. I’ll fill you in during the commercial break.”
This is hardly the first time the Riverdale alum’s past has been brought up during a morning chat. On a July episode of Live, he blamed his leaky roof on an ex-girlfriend with a voodoo doll and “unjust feelings of revenge” toward him.
“We once had a leak for like six months when we lived downtown,” Consuelos explained. “I said, ‘You know what? This is something that I did to a girl in high school.’ She’s got a little doll — a voodoo doll.”
In another episode from May, Consuelos admitted he “wasn’t good at relationships” as Ripa speculated that his longest girlfriend before her only lasted about “four months.”
“I had some, like, maybe year — I don’t think I’ve had more than a year and a half,” he said at the time. “That was like my longest relationship. You know? Like a nice sweater.”
