Kelly Ripa, 54, works very hard. She hosts LIVE With Kelly and Mark with her husband, Mark Consuelos, 54. She co-owns an Italian soccer team and a production team. This hard work helped her amass a net worth of $120 million, per Celebrity Net Worth. But, even with all this success, she works hard to keep the lives of her children "really normal."
The daytime television host recently sat down with Amanda Hirsch on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast and explained why her three children being nepo babies isn't all bad.
Kelly and Mark share three kids, Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22. In May, their youngest son graduated from the University of Michigan, making all three Consuelos kids college grads.

"I think my kids feel very fortunate in general," Kelly told Amanda, explaining that "they don't have student loans."
She continued: "There's a comfort in knowing my kids got to graduate knowing that they weren't having to climb out of a mountain of debt. They are so appreciative and so grateful." While Kelly has been in Hollywood for the entirety of her children's lives, she and Mark tried to keep their lives "really normal" as they grew up.
"I also think we kept their worlds really normal when they were young," Kelly said. "They always, from the earliest ages they could, had part time jobs, always. And, in their friend circle, they were the only ones to have jobs."
