Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos recently shared a joyful holiday season with their family, which included a special visit to London to see their daughter, Lola. On Christmas Day, Ripa posted a series of heartwarming photos on Instagram that captured their family moments. Among the highlights was an amusing photo showcasing their sons, Michael, 28, and Joaquin, 22, towering over their parents, illustrating how quickly the kids have grown.
Accompanying the snapshots, Ripa wrote, “A Christmas carousel from here, there and everywhere 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄Happy Holidays from our family to yours!” The images depicted the family enjoying a beach setting, with palm trees in the background, and included candid moments from their trip abroad, where they also watched Lola perform live.
The post featured several memorable scenes, including a touching image of Lola and Michael beside a beautifully decorated Christmas tree and moments of the siblings enjoying each other’s company over a drink. The warmth of the family’s bond shone through in pictures of Lola cuddling with her dad, Mark, emphasizing their close-knit relationship during the festive period.
While the family’s holiday appeared to be merry, earlier in December, Kelly admitted on “Live With Kelly and Mark” that she was feeling overwhelmed and behind on her holiday shopping. She publicly shared her anxiety, revealing that she usually has her shopping completed by this time but hadn’t started yet. In an effort to ease her stress, Mark humorously declared he didn’t want any gifts for Christmas, saying, “One less worry. Take it off. It’s OK. Take this year off.”
The Consuelos family’s Christmas celebration exemplifies their strong family ties and the humor they share, making for a memorable holiday experience despite the usual hustle and bustle. With their close relationships and shared experiences, it’s clear that the holiday season was filled with love and joy for them.
