During a recent episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, Kelly Ripa shared a light-hearted and humorous moment with David Muir. When Muir appeared on the show, Ripa referred to him as “Commander Handsome” and revealed that she had taken some “indecent photos” in front of a portrait of him at their new ABC studio in downtown New York City.
The conversation turned playful as Ripa mentioned that the new location provided them with easy access to Muir, leading to funny remarks. Ripa’s husband and co-host, Mark Consuelos, chimed in with jokes about HR being nearby during her amusing confession, creating a lively atmosphere on set.
As the host discussed the oversized portraits adorning the new studio, Muir, who has been anchoring World News Tonight since 2014, humorously acknowledged his dedicated fanbase and how people make fun of him on platforms like TikTok. Commenting on turning 50, he expressed that while he finds it amusing to be referred to as “Daddy,” he was surprised to be viewed in such a flattering light.
Muir also shared a charming side note about his dog, Axel, claiming that his furry friend is “more” famous than he is, which he finds both delightful and amusing.
The banter between Ripa and Muir fostered an entertaining exchange, showcasing their camaraderie and the fun dynamic of the show. Fans can catch Live with Kelly and Mark weekdays, while World News Tonight with David Muir airs weeknights at 6:30 p.m. ET, promising more amusing moments and engaging content.
This light-hearted exchange truly reflects the joy and camaraderie shared among ABC’s personalities, reminding viewers that humor can create a sense of connection, especially in today’s fast-paced world.
