Kelly Ripa isn’t afraid to question a restaurant's prices — especially in the Hamptons.
During the Friday, May15, episode of Live With Kelly and Mark, the longtime talk show star and her husband-turned-co-host, Mark Consuelos, were reacting to a list of social etiquette "rules" when the Riverdale actor read off one his wife firmly disagreed with.
"You can ask how much something costs but don’t ask why something costs how much it does," Consuelos recited, as Ripa sat with her arms crossed, clearly having a differing opinion.
Kelly Ripa called out a Hamptons restaurant for 'jacking up' the price of wine.
"No, I’ve done that," Ripa bluntly admitted.
"I did that at a restaurant —" she continued, though Consuelos knew immediately where her story was headed, adding, "In the Hamptons?"
“In the Hamptons,” Ripa confirmed before recalling the bold dining moment.
'You are jacking this up 2,000 percent,' Kelly Ripa declared.
"When somebody ordered a bottle of rosé and I happened to know how much the bottle of rosé cost, I was like, I just wanted them to know," she explained, earning applause from Live's studio audience. "I was like, 'I feel like you need to know that you are jacking this up 2,000 percent.
Ripa continued, "'This is an $8 bottle of rosé. You know it and I know it and yet here we are.'"
After concluding her candid confession, the Hope & Faith actress was met with even further cheers from the crowd as Consuelos cracked up beside her.

'This is an $8 bottle of rosé,' Kelly Ripa informed a Hamptons waiter.
Ripa and Consuelos are no strangers to the Hamptons, as the married couple of more than 30 years owns their own lavish property in the area estimated at $5.2 million.
While glimpses of inside the 5,575 square-foot mansion are rare, Ripa has occasionally showed off photos of her husband relaxing in the home's pool and sweet snaps of their family's summers by the shore.

During a 2023 interview, Ripa was asked, "You're in the Hamptons, do you ever go in the sea?"
"I do go in the ocean, but you will never see me in the Northeast in the water. I come out on the weekends after work, so in my two days that I’m out here, I don’t want to be cold in the water," she quipped.
