Mark Consuelos Undergoes Major Surgery For A Painful Arthritic Toe Condition
Anonymous
Mark Consuelos said he was undergoing surgery for a painful arthritic condition in his big toe immediately after the September 25 episode of Live With Kelly and Mark. The 55-year-old co-host had put off the procedure for about a year and described it as major, joking that it was like a “C-section for your toe.” He was fasting before the operation and said he felt “a little loopy,” while Kelly Ripa planned to accompany him and joked about filming him as he recovered from anesthesia. The couple also joked about his recovery and how Ripa could help while he was off his feet.
