For the first September in at least 20 years that she didn’t have a kid to see off to school, Kelly filled the void with a throwback from 2008.
Looks like Michael’s about to get the drop on his little sister in this pic their dad shared on Lola’s 19th birthday in 2020.
Class of 2021
Joaquin is surrounded by love at his high school graduation.
Big Men on Campus
“Looks like @instasuelos just found out he won’t be @joaquinconsuelos roommate in the fall,” Kelly teased during a trip to Ann Arbor before Joaquin started at University of Michigan.
Kelly took a few days off in March 2022 to watch the Wolverines compete in the Division 1 Wrestling Championships in Detroit.
Still a freshman, Joaquin didn’t wrestle this time, but still, Kelly said on Live upon her return, “It took years off my life watching these young men.”
Generational Health
The whole family finally made it to Greece and Italy in June 2021 after the pandemic had other plans in 2020.
“Last year’s graduation trip for our oldest son and niece was delayed long enough to become a graduation trip for the family newborns as well,” Kelly shared.
Heavenly Holiday
This family pic from their Mediterranean getaway turned out so well, Kelly made it their 2021 holiday card.
A Sweet Memory
“Happy Easter from the year 2012 because Lola approved this photo,” Kelly captioned this throwback, never missing a chance to tease her perpetually appalled teen on social media.
History Repeating
In August 2020, Kelly Ripa shared an epic recreation of an old family photo from 2003 on Instagram
. With youngest son Joaquin on her lap and older kids Michael and Lola perfectly in place, we’d say they nailed it despite the fact that, as Kelly noted, “objects may appear larger.”
Glad Grad
In May 2020, Kelly and Mark celebrated eldest son Michael’s graduation—albeit a virtual one, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic—from New York University. Marking the occasion, Kelly wrote on Instagram, “And just like that you graduated college. MJC, the joy and pride you have brought our family is indescribable. I love you with all my heart.”
