Mark Consuelos is revealing why he doesn't see divorce as an option when it comes to his longtime marriage to Kelly Ripa.

The couple, who have been married for nearly three decades, have frequently been candid about the ups and downs of their relationship—and Consuelos says there's a surprisingly practical reason he has no plans to walk away.

“We’d have to split everything”

Consuelos has joked that one of the biggest reasons he would never divorce Ripa is how complicated it would be to divide their life and everything they've built together.

After decades of marriage, the couple has accumulated a home, businesses, finances, friendships and a family life that would be anything but simple to untangle.

It's a humorous explanation, but it also reflects just how much history they share.

Nearly 30 years together

Consuelos and Ripa met while working on “All My Children” in the 1990s and famously eloped in 1996.

They went on to have three children: Michael, Lola and Joaquin.

Over the years, the pair have built a reputation for being unusually open about their marriage, frequently teasing each other about everything from parenting to romance.

Their relationship isn't perfect

Both stars have acknowledged that long-term marriage requires work.

Rather than presenting their relationship as effortless, they often talk about disagreements, different personalities and the challenge of maintaining a relationship while balancing demanding careers and family responsibilities.

Their playful approach has become part of their public persona—and Consuelos' latest comments fit right in.

Still going strong

Ripa and Consuelos have remained one of television's most recognizable celebrity couples, with their relationship spanning multiple decades and major changes in both of their careers.

Consuelos' comments may have been delivered with humor, but after nearly 30 years together, the couple clearly has a lot more than a marriage certificate tying their lives together.

Bottom line

For Mark Consuelos, divorcing Kelly Ripa apparently wouldn't just mean ending a marriage—it would mean trying to untangle nearly 30 years of shared life, family and everything they've built together. And that's a mess he says he'd rather avoid.
