No pandemic babies here.

Kelly Ripa thought she and Mark Consuelos — who share sons Michael, 25, and Joaquin, 19, plus daughter, Lola, 21 — had conceived their fourth child together during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Speaking to Haute Living about her upcoming book, “Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories,” the daytime show host, 51, detailed, “I will definitely include that time during the pandemic that I thought my husband got me pregnant.

“I started taking pregnancy tests daily, but then Mark sort of gingerly said, ‘Could there be another reason why you’re not getting your period?’ and me saying, ‘What other reason could there possibly be?’ He really had to walk on eggshells here [by explaining to me that I was probably going through menopause].”

Ripa admitted she was relieved she didn’t have to “explain to my kids that they were about to meet their new sibling.”

However, a new sibling wouldn’t have been all that surprising as Ripa and Consuelos, also 51, consistently gush about their sex lives.
