‘Kelly and Mark’ host Mark Consuelos’ hot-guy essentials
September 13, 2023
In honor of New York Fashion Week, Mark Consuelos asked his wife and co-host, Kelly Ripa, what she prefers to see him in most.
Her reply? “Absolutely nothing!” Anyone who watches “Live with Kelly and Mark” knows the two — who’ve been married for 27 years and are parents to Michael, 26, Lola, 22, and Joaquin, 20 — positively sizzle. “The key to our on- and off-screen chemistry is deep admiration, love and trust,” says Consuelos.
But when it comes to fashion, the former “Riverdale” star turns to another woman. Ashley Pruitt has been styling the actor for seven years, helping to create his signature look that often includes Canali, Tom Ford and Ralph Lauren.
“She knows what I’m thinking and is never afraid to correct me when I’m wrong,” shares Consuelos, 52. “She pushed me to wear a double-breasted Celine tuxedo at this year’s Oscars, which I wasn’t sure fit my style, but it’s now one of my favorite pieces.”
Meet some of the star’s other style MVPs.
“Aviators are a classic staple that I always travel with because they work well with anything.”
“The owner, Robin Capili, has been cutting my hair for over a decade. His chic, loft-style salon reminds me of all the great memories from living in downtown New York.”
“These Tom Ford boots are my go-tos when I need something sleek and stylish without sacrificing comfort.”
“I get stopped on the street when I wear ‘Molecule 01.’ It’s been my signature scent for as long as I can remember.”
“Listening to Kelly’s podcast is my favorite commute pastime. I love how she gets people to dig deep and open up.”
“This vintage 1961 Submariner Rolex is another one of my favorite gifts from my wife. Kelly has impeccable taste and curates all my watches.”
“My wife is the greatest gift-giver, and she outdid herself with this beautiful, one-of-a-kind lapel pin by Nikos Koulis. It’s a sentimental piece that I save for special occasions.”
“Canali has an incredible team that goes above and beyond. This custom-made, double-breasted sport coat is a timeless, classic piece that will never go out of style.”
“I have strong Italian roots and grew up playing soccer, so I realized a childhood dream of mine by buying the Campobasso soccer team last year.”
“Love to support my favorite sport along with my favorite university. Go Blue!”
“This 1986 ‘Defender’ is one of my favorite projects. I got to custom design it from the ground up and it’s the perfect all-utility vehicle. I’m from Tampa, Florida, so obviously I had to lift it four inches.”
“Nüobell’s 80-pound Tactical dumbbells are an excellent space saver and the best-looking set in its class. I’m a sucker for anything dark green.”
“Specialized’s versatile road bike is extremely lightweight and great for traversing the city or even climbing mountains.”
