Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ only daughter, Lola Consuelos, stunned fans on Thursday after sharing a raw, emotional confession on social media. In an Instagram post, the 24-year-old singer revealed a moment of vulnerability, writing:
“8 minute voice note to my therapist about how I am scared because my stomach hurts.”

Her admission came just days after she opened up about suffering from emetophobia — an extreme, irrational fear of vomiting or seeing someone else vomit.

Last Tuesday, Lola shared a screenshot of text messages on her Instagram Story, revealing just how overwhelming the condition can be.
“Ugh I’m so nauseous. I don’t think I’ll be able to, I’m so scared,” the messages read. Alongside the image, she wrote:
“Where are my baddies with emetophobia?”

Emetophobia, according to health experts, can dominate a person’s daily life.
Clinical psychologist Dr. Daniel Glazer from US Therapy Rooms explained to HELLO! that this anxiety disorder “can take over a person’s whole life because the fear is ever-present, dictating day-to-day choices.”

He added that people living with the condition often remain in a “constant state of anticipation,” watching their bodies for signs of nausea and avoiding anything that feels unsafe — from social events to certain foods, public transport, or situations involving children and illness.

The disorder, Dr. Glazer said, often stems from a childhood experience where vomiting felt frightening or uncontrollable. Because of that, the brain becomes hypervigilant, trying to prevent the sensation from happening again. Emetophobia is especially common in women and frequently overlaps with OCD, panic disorders, or avoidant eating patterns.

Lola’s candid post comes as she prepares to release her second single, “Hypochondriac,” on November 21 — a follow-up to her debut track, Lola. The title reflects the song’s theme: the anxiety of constantly worrying about one’s health, even without any medical cause.
The release is part of her upcoming EP, due out in December.

Earlier this month, Lola teased the project with a heartfelt message on Instagram, thanking collaborators and fans:
“Evi created such a safe space for me to let my guard down… This feels like the beginning of a new chapter. I can’t wait to have every single one of you on this journey with me.”

Her transparency marks a shift in how younger public figures talk about mental health and the hidden struggles behind the spotlight. And while her confession left many fans worried, it also brought a wave of support — especially from those who live with the same condition.

In recent family photos, Lola appeared alongside Kelly, Mark, and her brother Joaquin during his University of Michigan graduation — a reminder that even with rising fame and personal challenges, she remains closely connected to her family.

As Lola steps into a new era of her music career, her honesty about emetophobia is resonating far beyond her fanbase — turning a private fear into a powerful conversation.
