TV host Kelly Ripa has long been a source of wisdom for her viewers, but her daughter, Lola Consuelos, recently highlighted a particularly “meaningful” piece of fashion advice that has resonated with her. During a podcast episode of “Let’s Talk Off Camera With Kelly Ripa,” Lola shared that Kelly advised against wearing leggings as pants, an insight she initially dismissed but later came to appreciate, humorously acknowledging that she was in leggings while recording the episode due to returning from the gym.
Beyond fashion advice, Lola expressed gratitude for the foundational lessons her mother instilled in her and her siblings, emphasizing values of respect and kindness. She noted that many people might not receive such essential moral guidance, which made her realize its importance. Lola shared how Kelly’s counsel helped her navigate challenges: “When you stop giving that fluster-ness attention, it will all fall into place,” she recounted.
The Consuelos family openly discusses their parenting philosophy, aiming to nurture their children into great individuals, regardless of gender. Kelly has remarked on the sensitivity of her sons and the strength of her daughter, rejecting traditional gender stereotypes.
This warm familial exchange illustrates the lasting impact of parental guidance and the importance of imparting values that transcend mere appearances. It serves as a reminder that wisdom can come from various forms of advice, whether about fashion choices or life lessons.
