Lola Consuelos, the 24-year-old daughter of television personalities Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, recently captured fans’ attention with a striking selfie shared on social media. The budding musician posted a photo of herself in a light pink nightgown, paired with an image of horses in a meadow, simply captioning it “nightgown horse.” The post highlights not only her unique style but also offers a glimpse into the life of an artist carving her own path while navigating a famous family dynamic.
Lola, who is the only daughter of Ripa and Consuelos, has been praised for her distinct fashion sense. Her mother, Kelly Ripa, has openly expressed admiration for her daughter’s confidence and sartorial choices. “I think that Lola has truly one of the most unique and totally ‘her’ senses of style. I’m always pleasantly surprised by the way Lola puts an outfit together,” Ripa shared in an interview with People. She added that Lola’s ability to mix vintage finds with a youthful, rock-and-roll edge is something she wished she had the courage to do at the same age.
Beyond her presence on social media, Lola is building a career in music. She divides her time between New York and London, where her boyfriend, Cassius Kidston, resides. She released her debut single, “Paranoia Silverlining,” in 2022, followed by her song “The Watcher” in 2024. Her bicoastal lifestyle reflects her commitment to both her personal relationships and her growing professional ambitions.
Lola grew up in the public eye alongside her brothers, Michael, 28, and Joaquin, 22. In candid moments on their show, Live with Kelly and Mark, her parents have humorously discussed the family dynamics. Ripa once joked about the difference in raising their only daughter compared to their sons. “If they had any idea how much more money we spent on Lola. The care and feeding of Lola compared to the boys,” she said on air. Ripa explained that while her youngest son, Joaquin, might have worn his older brother’s hand-me-downs, Lola had a knack for getting what she wanted, a skill her parents found amusingly impressive.
Despite her confident exterior and creative pursuits, Lola has also been open about facing personal struggles and the importance of her family’s support. During an appearance on her mother’s podcast, Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, she spoke about a difficult first year at university. “I was not happy at all,” she recalled. “I was going through a bit of a thing, and I really felt like the only people I could speak to were my parents.”
She elaborated on how her perspective on parental advice has evolved over time. “Like most cases, when you’re growing up, your parents [are] always telling you, like when you’re older, you’re gonna wish you listened to me,” Lola said. “And there’s so many times in my life where I’m now like, oh my god, I completely get it. That’s when I started really feeling like I didn’t really want anyone else’s opinion but my parents.” This heartfelt admission underscores the close bond she shares with Ripa and Consuelos, revealing that their guidance has become an invaluable anchor as she navigates adulthood and her career.
