Joaquin Consuelos, the 23-year-old son of Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, captivates social media with recent beach vacation snapshots. The images show him enjoying a seaside meal against a backdrop of blue skies and clear waters, dressed in a patterned shirt with his hair slicked back, highlighting his chiseled features, deep tan, and dimples.
Fans React to His Striking Looks
Joaquin captioned the post simply: “Eatin good.” However, followers focused less on the food and more on his appearance. One commenter declared, “That boy is beautiful,” a sentiment echoed by many others. Fans also praised his siblings, Lola, 24, and Michael, 28, noting, “All 3 of them are gorgeous,” before adding, “But Joaquin is something else.”
Broadway Debut on the Horizon
Joaquin relaxes before his Broadway debut in a revival of Death of a Salesman, set to open on April 9. This marks his second major project following his graduation from the University of Michigan in spring 2025. He also stars in a Hulu pilot adaptation of Nash Jenkins’ 2023 novel Foster Dade Explores the Cosmos, titled Foster Dade.
Talent Runs in the Family
The Consuelos siblings pursue creative paths independently. Joaquin’s older brother works as an actor, writer, and producer, while sister Lola released her debut EP in December as a musician.
Parents Emphasize Independence
Despite their parents’ success, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos instill financial responsibility in their children. Kelly Ripa shared on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast with Amanda Hirsch that the kids avoided college debt but earned money from young ages through part-time jobs.
“We kept their worlds really normal when they were young,” Ripa explained. “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.”
She added: “I didn’t grow up privileged and neither did [Mark]. We work and we expect our kids to as well.”
