Even Kelly Ripa can hardly believe she’s spent 25 years greeting America each morning on “Live!”
Ripa, 53, celebrated the quarter-century TV milestone alongside co-host and husband of nearly 30 years, Mark Consuelos, during a special "Live with Kelly and Mark" episode on Friday, Feb. 20.
The episode on the nationally syndicated show features appearances from old friends (including frequent co-host Jerry O'Connell), the couple's son Michael, 28, and voice messages from their other children, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22, who couldn't attend.
"The one thing my children, and others, said was, 'Here's to the next 25 years,'" Ripa tells USA TODAY. "I was thinking, 'Next 25 years? If I make it through the next 25 minutes, it'll be incredible.' Listening to people talk about me was torture. Like attending your own funeral."
