Mark Consuelos isnt allowing criticism of his new television gig go to his head.
In an interview with Us Weekly published shortly after he made his debut Monday as the permanent co-host of ABCs newly renamed Live With Kelly and Mark, Consuelos said the experience of working alongside his wife of 27 years, Kelly Ripa , truly felt like home.
I always feel at home with Kelly but [working] together this morning just felt so right, he told the publication. Kelly and I have always [felt] the most [at] ease when were together and I feel so lucky we get to do that daily.
He went on to note: I cant wait to see where we can go from here.
Consuelos, whose acting credits include All My Children and Riverdale, joined the daytime talk show following Ryan Seacrests departure last week. Seacrest had been a co-host on the ABC series since 2017.
Though Consuelos had made appearances as a guest co-host on the show several times, his first few days on the job as a permanent co-host have been met with mixed reviews on social media.
Though much of the response was positive, the New York Post and other media outlets made efforts to emphasize the criticism.
