However, Kelly Ripa has been absent for a week now. Starting on August 4, she was replaced by Nobody Wants This star Jackie Tohn on Monday. Consuelos did not address the reason for his wife’s absence. Ripa was out for the entire week, with Jenna Dewan and Rita Ora filling in for her the rest of the week.

After Jackie Tohn and Jenna Dewan kicked off the week as Mark Consuelos ‘ guest co-hosts, Rita Ora filled in for Ripa on Wednesday’s episode, which like Monday and Tuesday’s installments, was previously recorded. Once Ora took a seat alongside Consuelos, she gushed, “This is awesome.”

During the daytime icon’s leave, several celebs have guest starred alongside her husband and co-anchor, Mark Consuelos.
