Live With Kelly and Mark is without one of its titular personalities this week, but fret not, there was good reason. Kelly Ripa is seemingly simply enjoying her annual summer break from the longtime ABC talk show leading to her recent absence.

Ripa isn't on Live with Kelly and Mark this week because she's out for summer vacation. She last appeared on the show on Friday, Aug. 1.

One week after Mark Consuelos took the week off from his cohosting duties on Live with Kelly and Mark, his wife, Kelly Ripa, is taking her much-deserved break. Ripa, 54, is on summer vacation, which in the past has lasted for about a week.
