There’s a new twist in the world of true crime, and it involves a couple you know and love: Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos. This dynamic duo is stepping into the spotlight to bring us some serious crime drama. They’ve inked a deal with the TV network Oxygen to develop a lineup of unscripted true crime series. It’s a bold move that’s sure to keep fans on the edge of their seats.
How It All Started
Let’s rewind for a moment. Kelly Ripa, the 48-year-old TV host, has been a devoted fan of Oxygen’s true crime shows. In her own words, she stumbled upon a Snapped marathon while making meatballs on a Sunday afternoon. That’s right—meatballs. She jokes that not only has she learned how to commit the perfect crime and dispose of the body, but she’s also gained a deep understanding of what Oxygen viewers crave. This insight makes their programming partnership feel like a natural fit. “It just makes perfect sense,” she says with a wink.
What’s on the Horizon?
According to The Wrap, the couple will be diving headfirst into developing a slate of unscripted true crime series. Oxygen, which rebranded in 2017 to focus exclusively on this genre, is thrilled to have Kelly and Mark on board. Their passion for the genre is palpable, and they’re ready to bring their unique perspective to the table. Cori Abraham, senior vice president of development, production, and international media at Oxygen, calls working with Kelly and Mark a “dream come true.” She adds, “They eat, sleep, and breathe true crime, and that’s exactly the kind of energy we want to bring to our network.”

For those who think this is a first-time venture into production for Kelly and Mark, think again. The couple has been in the game for a while with their company, Miloji Productions. This new slate of crime shows will be developed under this banner, adding to their growing portfolio. It’s clear that their love for storytelling extends beyond the screen and into the world of production.

Love and Laughter: The Secret to Their Success
Let’s not forget that this power couple has been married since 1996 and shares four amazing kids—Michael, 21, Lola, 17, and Joaquin, 16. Mark, the charming actor from Riverdale, once told Fox News, “I’m crazy about my wife. It’s nice to be married to your best friend.” He adds, “She’s really patient and tolerant. That’s a big key to the success of our long marriage. We’ve been married forever!”
And it’s not just about love; humor plays a big role in their relationship. Mark explains, “We don’t take anything too seriously or to heart. Luckily, most people are great, and we really don’t focus on the negative stuff. There’s too much positive stuff to focus on. If we do respond, it’s always with humor. My wife’s one of the funniest people I know.”
