 Mark Consuelos Shares Secret to His Successful Marriage on Kelly Ripa’s New Podcast: ‘I Want to Be Married Forever’

Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa are one of Hollywood's most enduring couples. They've been married for over 25 years, weathered their fair share of ups and downs, and still remain deeply in love. So, what's their secret to a successful marriage? Consuelos recently opened up about it on Ripa's new podcast.

"I want to be married forever," Consuelos said in the podcast interview. "I think the secret to our marriage is that we genuinely like each other. We enjoy spending time together, whether it's just the two of us or with our family. We make each other laugh, we have common interests, and we support each other's dreams and goals."

Consuelos went on to say that communication is also key to a successful marriage. "We talk about everything," he said. "We're not afraid to have difficult conversations, and we're always honest with each other. I think that's important. You have to be able to trust your partner and know that they have your best interests at heart."

Another important factor in their marriage is that they make time for each other, even with their busy schedules. "We prioritize our relationship," Consuelos explained. "Even if we're both working on different projects, we always make time to be together. It's about being present and making the most of the time we have."

Consuelos and Ripa first met on the set of the soap opera "All My Children" in the mid-90s. They eloped to Las Vegas in 1996 and have been together ever since. They have three children together and have been open about the challenges they've faced as a couple over the years. But through it all, they've remained committed to each other and their marriage.

Their successful marriage has been an inspiration to many, and Consuelos hopes that their story can help others. "Marriage is hard work, but it's also incredibly rewarding," he said. "If you're willing to put in the effort, it can be one of the most fulfilling experiences of your life. I feel so grateful to have Kelly as my partner, and I look forward to spending the rest of my life with her."

As Consuelos and Ripa continue to navigate their marriage and their careers, their love for each other remains strong. Their secret to a successful marriage may not be a mystery after all – it's all about communication, trust, and making time for each other.
