Huge Update!! Fans are shocked ! Mark Consuelos Comforts Kelly Ripa Through!

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos‘ trip on a prop plane is one for the books.

The co-hosts were reminded of the frightening flight on Live with Kelly and Mark on Wednesday after Consuelos congratulated LeBron James for hitting 50,000 career points.

“He came out of high school right into the NBA,” he continued. “And you know when you’re old? When you see somebody at the beginning of their career and the end of their career.”

While Consuelos claimed Derek Jeter was the first athlete that “made [him] feel old,” Ripa offered up another phenomenon she feels is a sign of aging.

“I always think now, speaking of old… but when I get on an airplane, and the pilots are newborn babies,” she explained. “And you think surely, you don’t even have a driver’s license.”

Consuelos remembered a specific instance where he and Ripa experienced a “very, very, very young” pilot, though Ripa was speaking more generally.

“I’m talking about, like, American Airlines. I’m just like, ‘Are you OK to fly this?’” she quipped.

However, Consuelos and Ripa returned to his anecdote, recalling a trip they took on a “prop plane.”

Ripa added of the pilot, “Well, that was a child.”

Consuelos shared, “He was a child, but then he puts his phone, he gets his phone and he puts it on the dash and hits the navigation.”

Ripa chimed in, “Dashboard. Of the plane. And hits, like, Maps.”

According to Ripa, she and Consuelos had their lap belts on, fearfully bracing themselves. Consuelos joked, “And I was like, ‘You didn’t bring your guitar, did you? Please tell me you didn’t bring your guitar’… That’s like a La Bamba reference. I don’t know if you knew that.”

Ripa confirmed she “got the reference,” proceeding to recall “holding hands” with Consuelos and “staring at the child with his phone, which looked like a video game.”

“Like Minecraft,” Consuelos quipped. “Minecraft was on there,” as Ripa continued, “I was like, you know what? I’m going to text the kids and let them know that we love them. Just because nothing good can happen right now.”

However, the chaos didn’t end there. Ripa said that “they ask you for your weight,” and “heard” what Albert, a friend and collaborator they were traveling with, had told them.

“So then I went up there and they said, ‘What is your weight?’ And I said, ‘250 pounds.’ And they stared at me, and I said, ‘I am recovering from the lie that you were just told.’”

Consuelos said, “It’s not your goal weight, Albert. Not the goal weight. These are actual physics.”

“Yeah, my life. My wife’s life,” Consuelos interjected.

Ripa continued, “I am adding 100 pounds because I heard the shaving off of the 100 pounds that happened 30 seconds ago. And now we’re square. Now you know our weight.”

Consuelos noted that they “move you around on the aircraft” in order to “balance” the weight, too.

Ripa concluded, “Yeah, it was — well, we’re here! We’re all here. Everybody made it.”
