Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos

The ‘Live With…’ co-hosts first met when Mark was screen testing for the soap opera ‘All My Children’ in 1994 to play Kelly's character's love interest.

After dating for two years, they spilt but got back together just days later before running away to elope in Las Vegas.

Kelly - who has Michael, 27, Lola, 23, and Joaquin, 21, with Mark - told the ‘Comments by Celebs’ podcast: "We broke up the week before we got married… He popped the question the day before we got married, but that day, that very day that we got back together, we were at a taping of ‘Regis and Kathie Lee’. It was their Mother's Day special. They were pre-taping it, and one of the dreams of one of the mothers was to meet Mark and me. We were her favourite characters on ‘All My Children’."
