Kelly Ripa’s ongoing Halloween adventures with her neighbors have taken a humorous turn as the talk show host gears up for the spooky season in 2025. Over the years, Ripa has faced a series of complaints from local residents about the candy options offered during her Halloween celebrations, a topic she recently discussed on “Live With Kelly and Mark.”
Reflecting on this year’s festivities, Ripa shared a light-hearted incident where, despite having to reorder candy twice due to high demand, she received a complaint from an adult neighbor about the candy running out. The neighbor arrived around 8:30 PM, only to find the treat supply depleted. Ripa cheekily suggested that trick-or-treaters should plan their visits earlier next year if they want to grab a handful of sweets.
Her anecdote elicited laughter from the audience, and her husband, Mark Consuelos, expressed that he wished he had been present to manage the situation himself. Ripa reassured him that she handled the conversation with humor and composure.
In past Halloween seasons, Ripa has voiced her own frustrations regarding children’s reactions to the candy offerings. She recounted a particularly memorable year in 2023 when she decided to include two candy bars in each bag to keep the little trick-or-treaters happy and minimize complaints. Her reflections capture a blend of humor and the common challenges parents face during this annual event.
Despite Consuelos being absent for candy distribution this year, the couple celebrated the Halloween spirit together on air, showcasing an impressive 67 costumes inspired by various pop culture icons and shows. Their extravagant costume choices embodied the playful essence of Halloween.
“Live With Kelly and Mark” consistently engages viewers with shared laughs and upbeat moments, providing a sense of comfort and connection during festive occasions. As Halloween approaches, Ripa and Consuelos exemplify the joy and creativity that the holiday inspires, promising another year of delightful and entertaining antics.
