A fun fact about the house is that they source most of their unique pieces from an antique market in Paris. “Every light in this room came from a flea market in Paris. Something more interesting happened to these beautiful pieces than we did,” says Ripa.
They also revealed that they still share a bathroom and closet, even though their children have already left the home and there is a spare room. “We still share a bathroom and a closet. People always think it’s so weird… We’ve always shared a bathroom and a closet, and I don’t think we’ll ever share a bathroom and a closet,” Ripa shares. did They say it helps them avoid being wasteful and buying too many clothes.
A standout detail about the house was Consuelles’ cigar lounge, which has a special ventilation system that “sucks smoke from the sky.” “You can’t smell cigars in here, which is crazy because I know a lot of cigars have been smoked in this room,” Ripa said.
This is the place where he wrote his book “Live Wire”. “I do a lot of work here. I wrote my book on this desk right in that chair, and I had to reupholster it because I wore the fabric from the chair to the shape of my back end.” The 54-year-old explained.
