Fans Are Losing It Over Kelly Ripa’s Toned Legs in Rock Climbing Pic With Mark Consuelos
  • Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos recently enjoyed their first vacation together as empty nesters.

  • The pair adventured West to Colorado and Utah where they went hiking and rock climbing.

  • Ripa shared a photo from their rock climbing adventure, and fans were impressed by their form and strength.


When you hear the word vacation, scenes of relaxation and fruity drinks probably come to mind. But for Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ first trip as empty nesters, they decided to switch it up. The pair headed West to Utah and Colorado, Ripa recently explained on Live With Kelly and Ryan, and because they’re always up for a challenge, they decided to try natural rock climbing.

Ripa shared a photo from their excursion on Instagram, captioning it,“Couples therapy 🧗♀️🧗♂️.” Consuelos hovered above Ripa on the wall, and both used hand and footholds to traverse up. Needless to say, her followers were impressed by their ambition, and they also couldn’t help but notice their, uh, impressive form.

“Holy sh*t! I’m impressed! 👏👏👏,” one person commented. “Those Gams!!!🔥🔥🔥,” another added. “Those who survive together thrive together. And then there’s rock climbing…🫣,” Ripa’s trainer Anna Kaiser wrote.

Both Ripa and Consuelos take exercise seriously—and according to Kaiser, Ripa’s consistency in the gym is what keeps her strong. The pair have worked out together for 12 years, and on June 21, the fitness instructor and studio owner dedicated an Instagram to Ripa, praising her for her hard work.

“12 years, 2 kids, 5 studios, and over 100+ dances later… we are still bringing the 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Kelly trains with me and my @annakaiserstudios team 4-5 days a week and she still NEVER CANCELS!!!” Kaiser wrote. “Listen, if I can share one secret with you, that is IT. Show up for you. Show up for your trainer. Show up because you both deserve to make the magic happen together. And that is exactly what you are, @kellyripa MAGIC✨ And the strongest damn woman I have ever known!!!!”

Ripa explained on Live that the recent vacation marked her and Consuelos’ first in 25 years without their three kids, Michael, 25, Joaquin, 19, and Lola, 21. On top of rock climbing, they went hiking and ultimately did take some time to relax and recover.

“As it turns out, we had the time of our lives. There was some work involved in this trip but that’s not what we were doing,” she said. “We went to the Amangiri [resort], out in Utah. It is luxury. It’s like, the kind of trip we would take without kids.”

On her Instagram Story, Ripa shared additional photos from their hiking adventures, and on Live, she admitted that they did get lost... once. We did get lost in Colorado, which was amazing because it is the discussion that we always have: How long will it take for Mark to eat me?” Ripa joked. She explained that they wandered around for 45 minutes before she noticed her husband getting hungry.

“I said, ‘We agreed that I have to die of natural causes before you can dip into me as a food source.’ We’ve talked about it many times because we’ve already gone over the fact that I will not eat him because I have a hard time eating chicken that’s on the bone, much less my spouse,” Ripa recalled. “He, on the other hand, is like, ‘I can eat you in 3 seconds, no problem.’ But I wasn’t dead yet!”

Thankfully, the couple found their way out before any casualties.... or cannibalism occurred.
