At one point during the episode, Ripa brought up a study that claims men “crave romantic relationships way more than women do,” which she found “not surprising” while relating the research back to her and Consuelos’ marriage.

“When I think of who is romantic between us, I would say you are. Do you agree?” Ripa asked her husband, who laughed as he replied: “I do agree.”

Aware she’s a “non-romantic,” the mom-of-three — who share kids Michael, 27, Lola, 23, and Joaquin, 22, with Consuelos — said she has to “really focus” when it comes time to show that kind of affection to her partner.

Trolling his wife, Consuelos again agreed with Ripa as he joked: “You’re like being married to a contractor or a construction worker.”

“I’m like, ‘Hey, sweetie,’” the Riverdale actor said sweetly before switching into a more macho tone as he mocked Ripa.

“You’re like, ‘Hey, what’s up,’” he quipped, deepening his voice.
