Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are married for 26 years now. The couple started working together recently, and they both are very excited about this new journey. Unfortunately, Suzanne Darmony claims that when husbands and wives work together, it is bad for their marriage. 

This story was highlighted by the New York Post after Ripa and Consuelos appeared together for the first episode of Live! With Kelly and Mark. Darmony came out with her own story and explained how difficult it is for a couple when their love life and work life start to intertwine. As per reports,  working with your life partner might be challenging since you want to perform better than your partner as an individual.

The first episode of Live with Mark and Kelly was not at all what the viewers expected. There was a lot of PDA between the couple and some fake banter. The critics said that the episode was painful to watch. Many are intrigued to know how Ripa and Consuelos will keep up with their marriage while working together on this show.
