Kelly Ripa ‘Doesn’t Look Like Herself’ In A Selfie—’What Happened To Her Face?
May 4, 2023 by Maria Pierides
Kelly Ripa has been in the spotlight more than usual over these past few weeks, as the country still has mixed opinions about her husband Mark Consuelos, 52, becoming her permanent costar on Live with Kelly and Mark following Ryan Seacrest’s emotional departure. However, fans have been talking about the 52-year-old presenter for another reason too, after they spotted a real difference in her appearance in the two-image Instagram carousel she shared on Mark’s first day as a permanent cohost on April 17th.
Kelly captioned the post, which saw them both smiling from ear to ear in front of the audience in the first picture, and then again on set in the second: “First day. First show. First selfie. So the adventure begins!” And there were a lot of opinions about the Hope & Faith alum’s appearance in the comments section, leading some fans to speculate what the difference could be down to…
“What happened to your face?” asked one confused fan, adding that she looked “totally different” in the picture. “She does look different,” agreed one fan, while another wrote, “It’s not a drastic change but she does look different. A little fuller kinda, a little swollen.” “Why does that not even look like Kelly?! I had to take a second look and zoom in and she still doesn’t look the same! What am I missing… what’s different?!” asked another puzzled fan, to which one replied, “Ditto something is off.”
