Where is Mark Consuelos Today? Steve Patterson Fills In As Co-Host on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’

Live with Kelly and Mark was live with Kelly Ripa and Steve Patterson this morning.

Patterson, who is a familiar face on Live, stepped in for Mark Consuelos, saying that it was “so great to be back.” While Ripa did not elaborate on Consuelos’ whereabouts, she did tease her husband and co-host for being absent while pointing out the New York City Marathoners in the live studio audience.

“I see a lot of marathoners here. Did any of you see Mark still on the course somewhere?” she quipped.

Patterson replied, “Yes, has the last person finished yet? My goodness gracious.”

Ripa added, “Yes, the last person dragged himself across the course.”

DECIDER reached out to Live with Kelly and Mark for more information on when Consuelos will return to the show.

Patterson and Ripa sat down with Rami Malek and Lacey Chabert on Monday morning, and also welcomed Hellen Obiri, who was the winner of this year’s New York City Marathon’s women’s race, which took place on Sunday (Nov. 2).

Viewers were treated to a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Live‘s Halloween show, which spotlighted this year’s top trends—including a spot-on impersonation of Taylor Swift‘s appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce‘s New Heights podcast, with the help of Live‘s executive producer, Michael Gelman. Patterson was also part of the fun, as were Live announcer Deja Vu, Jerry O’Connell, and more.
