Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos' latest disclosure, albeit not related to their personal romance, is guaranteed to tickle fans' funny bones. The married couple, hosting Live With Kelly and Mark, shared a hilarious highlight from their recent visit to Greece on the July 5th episode of the ABC show.

Ripa, who is 52 years old, shared with the Live audience on Wednesday that she and her fellow actor and spouse, who is also 52, unexpectedly came across a nude beach while hiking on an island during their recent vacation in Greece. She made it clear that it was not just a topless beach, but rather a beach where everyone was completely naked. She highlighted that it was always men present, and not the type of men they were interested in.

Amidst their visit, Consuelos witnessed one individual on the nude beach engaging in a conference call while being completely naked. Ripa humorously mentioned that many of the beachgoers were sunburnt, comparing them to burnt franks and beans. She jokingly added that she chose to look away from the scene.

"Ripa recalled a moment when Mark believed he saw someone familiar on the beach. She hesitated to reveal the person's identity, but Mark asked, 'Am I right?' Despite his inquiry, Ripa chose not to turn around."

During their time in Greece, Consuelos and Ripa, along with their 22-year-old daughter Lola and her friends, also spent quality time together. After Ryan Seacrest's departure, Consuelos officially joined Ripa as a co-host on Live in April. Although he had made appearances on the show in the past, April 17 marked his official start as a co-host. (Consuelos and Ripa are also parents to their sons Michael, 26, and Joaquin, 20.)

"Being together with Kelly has always brought us a sense of comfort, and I consider myself fortunate that we get to experience that every day," he exclusively shared with We following their inaugural live performance together. Ripa, on the other hand, expressed her complete confidence in his abilities, stating, "I had no doubts about how well he would do, and he truly proved me right. I am immensely proud of him, and I never had any concerns."

Ironically, the only ones who may have cause for concern are Ripa and Consuelos' three grown children, as their parents are known for their on-air revelations about their intimate lives.

During a 2019 episode of Live With Kelly and Ryan, Ripa and Consuelos' shared a candid, blush-worthy revelation from their past. On Lola's 18th birthday, she unexpectedly walked in on them in the midst of intimate activity.

Ripa and Consuelos remembered how Lola expressed her frustration, saying, "You've ruined my birthday and my entire life. Everything used to be vibrant, but now everything feels dull and colorless." This incident was not a singular occurrence, as the ABC personalities revealed. Lola had previously confronted her parents, calling them "disgusting" and urging them to relax. In a subsequent discussion, Lola and her parents consulted Michael and Joaquin, who shared their own experiences of accidentally witnessing their parents' intimate moments.
