The couple’s young son is officially graduating from the University of Michigan, with Ripa saying their family was “not ready yet to leave Ann Arbor yet.” She claimed they “keep begging him to go to grad school,” before revealing her own desire to go to college.

Consuelos joked that once Joaquin graduates, “You can go to school, and he won’t be weirded out by his mom in class.” Ripa pondered the suggestion, wondering what she would study or if she could be an adjunct professor.

Joaquin is the youngest of three children. Ripa and Consuelos also share a son named Michael and a daughter named Lola.
