Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos spent some quality time with their daughter on a recent trip to Greece, which was sort of a belated birthday and graduation gift for Lola, who turned 22 on June 16.
During Wednesday’s episode of Live With Kelly And Mark, the married TV hosts talked about the more memorable moments, some of which were captured in a series of snaps posted on their respective Instagram pages.
The couple, who share similar traveling styles, like to steer clear of big crowds when vacationing, instead opting to spend their time in the great outdoors, doing things like hiking.
After doing a bit of storytelling about their treks along the gorgeous landscape, Ripa made sure not to forget ‘the best part of the hike,’ which just happened to be a beach full of naked people.
‘Mark and I went on this other hike on this island and we stumbled accidentally upon a nude beach,’ the Berlin, New Jersey native, 53, clarified, adding, ‘And I don’t mean a topless beach, I mean all nude, total nudity. And it’s always guys and it’s always… the wrong guys.’
Natural state: Kelly Ripa, 52, and husband Mark Consuelos, 52, opened up about their recent family vacation to Greece with their daughter Lola, which included stumbling on a nude beach
Recalling the day they just happened to hike their way to the nude beach, Consuelos remembered seeing one guy ‘literally doing a conference call naked.’
Another memory the Riverdale actor took away from the experience was noticing all the people lounging and playing on the sand in their natural state without any apparent sunscreen on.
Seizing the moment to showcase her comedic timing, Ripa was quick to add, ‘A lot of burnt franks and beans,’ she said during the episode.
And it turns out the couple may have dodged a potentially embarrassing moment on that beach, when Consuelos turned to his wife to tell her he thought he recognized one of the nudists.
‘Mark thought he saw somebody he knew on the beach. He goes, “Hey I think I saw so-and-so” — I don’t want to blow up his spot — He goes, “Am I right?’ I’m like, “I’m not turning around.”‘
Opting to avoid a conversation with that person in all of their bareness, Ripa and Consuelos decided to mind their own business and keep walking to their next destination.
The Live With Kelly And Mark stars, who celebrated 27 years of marriage on May 1, also shared about their special time with Lola, which was spent more than a week after her birthday.
The Greece getaway also comes more than a month after they celebrated Lola’s graduation from New York University, or the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at NYU Tisch to be exact.

‘But let me tell you, once they get a little bit older, the gift of hanging out with your adult children is so amazing. She was so great. We got to spend time with her.’
