Live with Kelly and Mark welcomed another guest host during this morning’s episode — but this time, they were filling in for Kelly Ripa.

While Mark Consuelos was back after being absent from the majority of last week’s installments, Jackie Tohn stepped in for Ripa on Monday’s episode, which was previously recorded.

After Consuelos introduced the Nobody Wants This star as his guest host, Tohn teased, “Or as I like to call myself, Kelly Ripoff. Yeah! Nailed it. First one out of the gate.”

Last week, Ripa was joined by guest hosts Jerry O’Connell, David Muir, Carson Kressley, and Steve Patterson, as she said Consuelos was “working on a show out in L.A.”

Though Consuelos did not mention why Ripa was absent on Monday’s episode, DECIDER reached out to Live for more information.

Consuelos recalled the first time that he and Ripa met Tohn, which was during her first appearance on Live last year in their old studio.

“When Kelly and I got done meeting you and walked off, we said, ‘Wow, she would be a great fill-in,” he shared.

Tohn, who plays Esther Roklov on the Netflix sitcom, gushed, “Really? That makes me want to cry. Thank you.”

According to Tohn, her guest-hosting gig also meant a lot to her parents, who she said “are obsessed” with the daytime talk show.

“Oh, my God, they love both of you so much,” she told Consuelos. “They asked me when I told them I was doing this, they were like, ‘Oh, well, you know, maybe there’s a world and a universe in the future where you could maybe replace Kelly.’ I go, ‘Mom! I can’t replace Kelly.’ They go, ‘There’s only one person we love more than Kelly Ripa, and that’s you.’ Me! That’s what my mom said.”

Consuelos replied, “Aww! Well, they’re good parents.”

Tohn added, “They’re really, really cute. But I’ve wanted to host and be here and hang out forever.”
