One Riverdale star was forced to construct “ludicrous” sexual rituals with his famous wife to keep the spark alive in their relationship.
Mark Consuelos used FaceTime to spice things up in his romance with wife Kelly Ripa while he was away filming the teen drama in Canada back in 2020.
Facing 10 months away from his beloved, Mark tried everything to show Kelly how loved she was.

Appearing on the Let’s Talk Off Camera podcast, Kelly confessed: “There were rituals. We had sexual rituals that were so ludicrous over FaceTime.”
Kelly confessed she would do anything to cover up how insecure she was on camera.

“I became so alarmed at my appearance over FaceTime that I started rigging the computer to hang from a ladder,” she confessed.
“I’m not kidding. I hung the computer over a ladder so that I could look up to Mark and he did not have to see what gravity was actually doing.
“You get really close to yourself in situations where you’re separated from your husband for long periods of time.”
Mark confessed that he doesn’t let months go between having sex – and abstaining completely would be a “dealbreaker” in their marriage.

He told Kelly on the podcast: “I didn’t give you a break. There have never been months [between sex] unless I was in another country, but if you just decided, ‘Yeah, we’re not having sex anymore’, I would probably have a problem with that.”
He added: “I’m going to blame it on the fact that I travelled so much. A lot had to happen in the time I was home.
“I wanted to get intimacy in and the sex in. So they became one and the same,” as his wife quipped: “You wanted to get it in!”
For Mark, no sex would be off the table “unless [Kelly] had some type of medical condition where [she] lost the use of [her body].”

In fact, the only thing that put a dampener on their sex lives was Kelly going through the menopause.
The pair see a marriage counsellor, who joined them on the podcast, and who helped them through Mark’s “insane jealousy” in the very early days of being together.
Kelly confessed that the jealous was a “hard pill to swallow” at the time, adding: “It’s very hard being married to somebody who is jealous.”
