Kelly Ripa isn’t holding back when it comes to her husband Mark Consuelos’ very persistent bedroom preference—morning sex. And she’s not a fan.

During a candid chat on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, the Live with Kelly and Mark cohost joked about Consuelos’ unwavering enthusiasm for AM intimacy, calling it “disgusting” and “repulsive.”

“Men are morning people,” Ripa quipped after podcast host Amanda Hirsch admitted she’s “definitely not” into early-day action. But for Consuelos? It’s non-negotiable.

“He hasn’t learned, he’ll never learn,” Ripa said of her husband of nearly 30 years. “He’s a guy. He’s never going to learn.”

The couple’s morning routines don’t exactly set the mood, either. Between Ripa’s retainer and Consuelos’ nasal strips, she joked they’re at their “most repulsive, disgusting” state at dawn.

“That thing has a brain of its own, and it doesn’t see the retainer,” she laughed, adding, “I’m already pre-disgusted for tomorrow morning.”

Ripa even tried negotiating with Consuelos, telling him, “There needs to be a yin and yang here. It can’t always be your way—because 90% of the time, it is your way.”

Luckily, their shared Live hosting gig has (sort of) solved the problem. With brutal early call times, morning romps are now “almost repulsed” during the workweek.

“The greatest thing about this job? It’s like a miracle,” Ripa joked. “May this show last until he suffers from erectile dysfunction. He’s in his mid-50s now—shouldn’t that be happening? I was promised!”
