Kelly Ripa is sparking weight worries as photos of her cheeky birthday swimsuit snaps go viral. The 51-year-old talk show queen made headlines last weekend for turning another year older, with it all getting very busy on Instagram as husband Mark Consuelos posted stunning swimwear snaps of his 1996-married wife.

Kelly, who wowed in a revealing black swimsuit showing off her pint-sized frame and tiny waist, also posted stories to her Instagram as she delivered a jaw-dropping and ballerina-style jump, but it was a photo of the blonde with Scissor Sister Jake Shears between her legs that sparked this wave of concern.

Kelly Ripa Told She’s Too Thin By Worried Fans

Scroll for photos. Kelly continued the beachy celebration vibes with a shirtless Mark on her Instagram after the Riverdale actor marked her big day. The former sitcom star shared a particularly spicy snap, one showing her shot from behind, legs apart and with Jake prancing around on sands as his face appeared between her legs.

Hubby Mark, meanwhile, was over on the right and in black swim trunks as he flaunted his ripped abs and torso. Kelly, who had a small black beach wraparound basically ridden up, made sure her 3 million followers got a real eyeful, but the vibe was clearly a joking one.

The snap, which quickly made The Daily Mail’s headlines came with the newspaper mentioning the “thirst trap” mom of three Kelly had posted in its headline. The comments, however, are seeing multiple users bring up former ballerina Kelly’s weight. The avocado on toast lover, who has outlined her healthy eating habits and kept a full day’s food diary for Harper’s Bazaar last year, was told:

“She really looks like she has an eating/exercise disorder. I like being thin too but she’s scrawny, like a teenage boy.” Over 130 users agreed. Click here for the photo, scroll for more.

Fans Feel She’s Too Slim

While one fan said Ripa could do with an “extra few pounds,” another wrote: “You can tell she’s underweight as her head looks like a bubble head..” One user then claimed to know about the star’s eating habits as they replied: “If anyone ever saw her What I Eat in a Day video, she eats like she’s a bird. A bird might eat more than her.”

Kelly made Christmas 2020 headlines for enjoying a home-delivered McRib sandwich, something she said was a once-in-a-decade treat. The star is also regularly seen wolfing down treats on cooking segments of Live! With Kelly and Ryan.
