Kelly Ripa is officially 50 years old today – and she doesn't look a day over 35. The "Live! With Kelly and Ryan" host and former actress was up at the crack of dawn to shoot her morning series on Friday, but 48-year-old husband Mark Consuelos was busy on Instagram as his wife clicked her high heels while strutting onto the set – he was posting birthday photos for the woman he eloped with back in 1996. They were breath-taking photos. Check them out below.

Scroll for the photos. Mark, currently nearly 3,000 miles away from Kelly as he shoots CW series "Riverdale," had posted three photos. All showed the former "All My Children" actress on a photoshoot amid a sunny, grassy lawn, with Kelly looking beyond youthful. The mom of three, wearing a stunning and plunging floral sundress with a braless finish, was seen both seated on the grass and running through it – if anything said "free at 50," it was these snaps.

"Sexy" – hardly a surprising term from the man making headlines for grabbing his hot wife's backside. Kelly, going right back 'atcha, has been in the news recently as 19-year-old daughter Lola Grace admitted she was "disgusted" at the thirst trap photos Kelly posts of Mark.
Mark threw out a caption, writing: "Happy birthday to my little ray of sunshine ☀️ I love you, sexy.. ♥️♥️♥️"
A reply quickly came in from Kelly as she mentioned the current long-distance setup. Scroll for what she had to say.

Kelly, who shares daughter Lola with Mark alongside sons Michael and Joaquin, replied:
"Thank you baby wish we were together?????????."
Meanwhile, daughter Lola, replied: "So beautiful and perfect" – her parents have been together over 24 years, proving that Hollywood marriages can last. Kelly, Mark, and their three kids are also fresh from gracing the cover of People magazine's first ever Family Issue. As to Kelly looking so young, the blonde has actually admitted to having a "Peter Pan" body. It's more "Benjamin Button" than growing old for Kelly – see her "Peter Pan" confess below.

In 2019, Kelly opened up to The Cut, admitting a highly-caffeinated lifestyle, plus one that sees her burning calories all day long.
"My body looks like Peter Pan no matter what I do. I’ve never been a va-va-voom woman," she said, continuing:
"I like to take AKT — which is cardio-based dance classes — about four to five days a week between 3 and 5 p.m. And I like to do SoulCycle on the weekends. In the summer, I like to run in Central Park because I think it’s so gorgeous."
