Mark Consuelos' Awkward Zipper Blunder Live on Air Leaves Fans in Stitches

In a hilariously awkward moment that left viewers giggling, Mark Consuelos faced a wardrobe malfunction during a recent live episode of Live With Kelly and Mark as his pants zipper was wide open for all to see.

The 53-year-old actor made the shocking revelation just moments before the couple transitioned to their popular “Stump Mark” segment during the March 12 episode. “My zipper’s down!” he exclaimed, drawing gasps and giggles from the audience.

His co-host and wife, Kelly Ripa, 54, looked over in disbelief, scanning his lap as she quipped if anyone had “noticed” the gaping zipper. However, Consuelos quickly claimed he was the first one to catch the faux pas — to his dismay, fans quickly proved him wrong as they flooded social media with comments.

“I noticed Mark’s fly was open when he was speaking about Princeton,” one viewer said, referencing a conversation earlier in the show.

Ripa laughed off the situation, responding cheekily, “Sometimes it’s Groundhog Day every day!”

Consuelos and Ripa truly know how to keep it real on their talk show, often sharing intimate details from their marriage. In 2024, they discussed their no-nonsense “no eating before s--” rule.

Ripa explained, “I have a very strict no eating thing before,” while Consuelos expressed his dismay over her hearty dinner choices. “He’s like, ‘Are you sure you want the burger?’ I’m like, ‘I’m absolutely positive.’”

Despite a thought-provoking study suggesting that eating beforehand could enhance pleasure, Ripa stood her ground, insisting she wouldn't budge from her quirky rule.

Since Consuelos joined the talk show in 2023, fans have loved their chemistry, with a source telling Closer in December 2024 that their program is now the "envy of every other daytime" series.

“It’s not some giant mystery: Kelly and Mark get along as coworkers because their marriage is so solid,” the insider revealed. “All the skepticism around bringing Mark on board has pretty much evaporated.”
