Kelly Ripa is highlighting her teeny-tiny waist in high-waisted jeans as she ushers in the holiday season. The 51-year-old talk show queen has been busy ramping up Xmas action on Live! With Kelly and Ryan – earlier today, photos showed the former sitcom star welcoming the day’s guests with co-host Ryan Seacrest, and it was holiday vibes galore as she posed by not one, but two trees.
Kelly, who generally comes clad in stylish and floaty dresses or smart-tailored pants, had gone for a more casual wardrobe. While the killer pins weren’t on show, the slim waist was.
Kelly Ripa Stuns By Two Xmas Trees
Scroll for the photo. Kelly made 2020 holiday headlines for getting a naughty McRib delivered to her door during a snowstorm – the blonde told her 3 million Instagram followers it was a once-in-a-decade treat.
All smiles and with 46-year-old Ryan, Kelly was featured on her show’s Instagram on Tuesday. The mom of three looked super-chic in trendy and relaxed blue jeans, also donning a printed red blouse. Kelly had gone for stitched and dark denims, with a discreet necklace finish keeping the accessories simple – she smiled while next to Ryan, also accompanied by guests actress Kristin Chenoweth and musician Josh Bryant.
All four stood by fake trees – one in green and one in white, with a caption telling fans: “Beautiful performance by @kchenoweth and @joshbguitar!” Keep scrolling for more after the snap.
Opening Up On Her Diet
In 2020, Kelly revealed her full daily eats in a food diary shared with Harper’s Bazaar. She’s massively into avocado on toast and kicks the day off with a protein-filled energy breakfast of “almond butter with cinnamon to top slices of green apples.” On the millennial avo-on-toast trend, Kelly reflected, writing:
“The avocado toast kick of 2015 to 2017 was two years where avocado toast was pretty much the foundation of my diet,” adding: “And I had it with just about every meal. Sometimes, I would fry an egg and add that on top. Sometimes, a piece of cheese would accompany the avocado toast. But the avocado toast was a real staple of my diet.”
Ripa is also known for her workouts and regular training with trainer Anna Kaiser. In 2019, she told The Cut of her varied sweat sessions, which also include outdoor runs through Central Park in NYC. The pandemic, meanwhile, has brought Kelly in bedroom workouts, where it’s simple dumbbells and squats.
