Kelly Ripa has once again left fans buzzing with excitement after hinting at her latest goal: setting up her youngest son, Joaquin, with a high-profile celebrity.
Kelly, known for her candid humor and playful nature on her morning show, surprised everyone by casually mentioning her “determined” plans to play matchmaker.
And her ambitions aren’t subtle—she has her eye on none other than an A-list star, jokingly declaring, “One way or another, I’m going to have her as my daughter-in-law!”
Fans and viewers are used to Kelly’s anecdotes about her family life, and she often talks openly about her close relationship with Joaquin, who’s currently attending the University of Michigan.
The idea of Kelly stepping into a matchmaking role has taken everyone by surprise, especially since she’s usually laid-back about her kids’ relationships.
This time, however, she’s putting her matchmaking skills to the test, showing an unusual level of determination.
Although Kelly hasn’t yet revealed the identity of the celebrity in question, speculation is rampant. From popular young actresses and musicians to models, fans are dying to find out who this mysterious A-lister might be. In typical Kelly fashion, she’s kept things playful but has also hinted at having given this idea serious thought. Her supporters love seeing this more humorous, hands-on side of her as a mom, and the internet has become flooded with guesses about who she has in mind.
What makes Kelly’s matchmaking mission even more exciting is her unwavering resolve. While she’s joking about her role as “matchmaker,” Kelly’s fans know that she has a way of making things happen when she sets her mind to it. Some fans speculate that her relationship goals for Joaquin might even be a clever way of giving him some “mom-approved” dating options. And with her husband, Mark Consuelos, often joining in on her on-air jokes, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he gets pulled into this matchmaking adventure as well.
Kelly’s dedication to seeing her plan through has her audience eager to see whether her matchmaking efforts will actually lead to a high-profile romance. Whether it’s a passing joke or a plan she’s genuinely invested in, Kelly has created a whirlwind of excitement among her fans. She’s left everyone eagerly awaiting updates, and if she has her way, this could be one of the most talked-about celebrity “arrangements” in years.
