Mark Consuelos revealed that he\u2019d rather stay in a “loveless marriage” with Kelly Ripa<\/a> than risk losing their dog Lena in a divorce.<\/p>\n

“How do we fight over pets in a divorce?” Ripa asked in the opening segment of Tuesday’s episode of “Live with Kelly and Mark,” a prerecorded episode from before she was out for oral surgery.<\/p>\n

“I mean, listen. Let\u2019s just put it this way,” Consuelos responded. “I would stay in a loveless marriage<\/a> just to make sure I could be with Lena every day. That\u2019s how much I love Lena.”<\/p>\n

Ripa asked him sarcastically, “Is that all you\u2019re asking for is a loveless marriage? Because that can be arranged.”<\/p>\n

Consuelos added that if he ever lost Lena in a divorce<\/a>, he would “stay up at night, wondering what she is doing.”<\/p>\n

Ripa quipped that he would be “wondering if there was some other man petting her.”<\/p>\n

They were discussing a new bill in Pennsylvania that would change pets from being considered property to members of the family in a divorce, according to People<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The couple rescued Lena, a Maltese and Shih Tzu mix, in 2021 after she was featured in a pet adoption segment on the show.<\/p>\n

Ripa said her main worry when she adopted Lena was that she wouldn\u2019t get along with Chewie, a Shih Tzu she adopted from a 2007 segment on the show.<\/p>\n

Chewie died last year at 17 years old.<\/p>\n

The two dogs got along right away, she said \u2014 but her children wanted Lena to be named after a “Star Wars” character.<\/p>\n

“My kids want her to be named Leia, as in Princess Leia, because we have Chewie,” she said on the show soon after adopting the pup, according to People. “I don’t know. I need guidance.”<\/p>\n

But the name Lena stuck.<\/p>\n

Ripa talked about the importance of rescuing pets on the show in 2022.<\/p>\n

“Adopt your dogs<\/a> if you can, because they\u2019re the best,” she said to applause from the audience. “They\u2019re like, \u2018We\u2019ve been in the system, we don\u2019t want to go back. We\u2019re going to be extra good. We\u2019re hardly going to poop anywhere we\u2019re not supposed to, and we\u2019re rarely going to chew things that aren\u2019t meant to be chewed.'”<\/p>\n

Ripa and Consuelos have been married for 30 years and they share three children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
