Mark Consuelos Shares Hilarious Al Roker Mix-Up and GMA On-Air Blunder

The Live with Kelly and Mark co-host recalls a phone glitch involving Al Roker and a misstep that ended his guest weatherman stint on GMA.

  • Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa recounted a humorous phone mix-up where Consuelos received a text from Al Roker intended for Ripa, leading to confusion.
  • The text, caused by a glitch in their shared phone plan, prompted Consuelos to jokingly ask, 'Who the blank is Al?' before Ripa clarified the sender's identity.
  • The couple had exchanged numbers with Roker and his wife years ago to plan a dinner, though the outing never materialized.
  • Consuelos also shared a past on-air mistake during his guest meteorologist gig on Good Morning America, where he accidentally used Roker's signature line, 'Here’s what’s happening in your neck of the woods.'
  • The slip-up, which occurred despite explicit instructions not to use the line, resulted in Consuelos not being invited back to GMA.
