Kelly Ripa Shows Off ‘Unauthorized’ Photo of Husband Mark Consuelos Wearing ‘Nothing’

Kelly Ripa admits she unintentionally convinced her husband, Mark Consuelos, to sign up for what she's since dubbed his "first-ever nude photoshoot."

During Friday's episode of Live!, Ripa embraced the spirit of the Thanksgiving season with full force by sharing gratitude for all the career opportunities her husband—also named the "Sexiest TV Host" by People in October–has recently explored and photographic evidence of it with viewers.

"I'm happy to announce that Mark—yes, our Mark, Mark Consuelos—is the first-ever Stuart Weitzman Men’s Global Brand Ambassador," Ripa, 54, began as the audience cheered as seen in a clip later shared to the show's Instagram page on Nov. 22. "Hang on," she said smirking, "hang on."

"I got a hold of some of the photos from the photoshoot, and believe it or not, this man is selling shoes," she joked.

Ripa then turned around a physical copy of the black-and-white print showing Conseulos, 53, shirtless and wearing only a pair of boxers, a sherpa-lined leather jacket and a pair of boots.

"Shoes," Ripa repeated while showing a second picture of her husband posing for the brand, this time without that leather jacket. "Shoes and underpants!"

The clip then cut to a third portrait of the All My Children alum wearing a black sweater, which the couple joked was a little more "demure."

"Of course, I thought I would show you my screensaver on my phone," Ripa interjected, "Which is a photo that wasn't approved, but I think this unauthorized photo needs to be seen," she added while flipping her phone around to show the camera an image of Consuelos posing with the black cardigan tied around his waist and seemingly no underwear.

As the studio audience roared, Ripa continued to gush over her husband of 28 years, telling viewers the brand is unveiling a billboard with the campaign in New York City.

“You can see him now on the corner of 54th Street and Broadway, which is practically where I met him!” she exclaimed. “30 years ago!”

On a more serious note, Consuelos chimed in to thank those involved with the shoot, including all the people at the fashion house, the photographer and the stylist, noting that there were “racks of beautiful clothes” at the shoot, to which Ripa immediately teased, “None of which you wore.”

“After I was done with the photoshoot, they say, ‘Hey, you can keep whatever clothes you wore.’ I go, ‘I wore nothing,'” Consuelos joked before admitting that he did keep the boots and showing them off for the camera.

As for how this whole thing came about, Ripa convinced him to take the job, as she's been a longtime fan of the brand.

"I had no idea it would be your first-ever nude photoshoot!" she joked.

But now, she's all about the earned "bragging right," joking that Consuelos needs "to photograph the kids in front of the billboard" because "that would be great, and also, I believe, partially embarrassing."

"So I want to see that unfold," she teased.
