Lola Consuelos just celebrated her boyfriend’s 25th birthday – and she wasn’t afraid to show some PDA on his special day!

As seen on Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ daughter’s Instagram page last week, Lola and her beau Cassius are still going strong, and the 23-year-old is clearly smitten. “Twenty five has never looked this handsome!!!” she captioned the post, which included a carousel of photos of the pair together. “I’ll never want to know a day without you.”

Lola’s mum Kelly expressed her enthusiasm by commenting, “Happy birthday to the chicest of the chic!”

Lola’s parents have previously spoken about how in love their daughter is with her boyfriend, explaining in a 2023 episode of Live with Kelly and Mark that she “spends all of her time in London”, where he is from, per People.

Born on June 16, 2001, Lola Grace Consuelos is the middle child of her parents Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ three offspring, per People. Her dad, 53-year-old Mark, is an Emmy-winning American actor, while her mum Kelly Ripa, 53, is the famous talk show host best known for Live! with Kelly and Mark. Lola’s parents have been together since 1996.

Lola grew up with media attention due to her famous parents. In a 2023 episode of Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa, she was asked by her mum if they were “cognisant” of the paparazzi around them in their youth. “Yes, I was very aware of it. … I think you and dad did the best job of raising us with that type of stuff because we knew what was going on, but you always told us that it was something else,” Lola explained on the podcast. “Like when you’d pick us up when we’d walk home from school, I’d be like, ‘There’s people taking photos of us.’ And you were like, ‘They’re taking photos of the birds.’”

According to Elle, Lola studied music and production at New York University. People adds that she graduated in May 2023. “Lola Gets!” her mum wrote on Instagram at the time. “#HappyGraduation and congrats @theyoungestyung … we are so proud of you.

She’s a singer

It seems Lola has her eyes set on a musical career. As per People, she released her debut single “Paranoia Silverlining” in August 2023 and has since debuted more songs. “I’m at this point in my life where I really just want to get the ball rolling. I just turned 21. I have a lot of material to write about,” she told People.

n July 2023, she weighed in on the “nepo baby” discourse in an interview with Extra. “There are times when I might think ‘What are other people going to think about this?’ especially because ‘nepo baby’ has become a huge thing. There’s no correlation to the stress that I feel and what my parents do, because they aren’t in the music industry – thank god!”

Earlier this month, Ripa shared a story about how Chris Rock had asked her permission to name his daughter Lola too, as shared in an episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, per Hola! “I was like: ‘First of all, I don’t own the name Lola, I didn’t trademark it,’” she laughed. “And second of all, we can all agree Lola Rock is an amazing name. Like: ‘Do you mind if I change Lola’s last name to Rock?’
