FAKING HER DEATH

Mark and Kelly discussed the unusual topic of female frogs faking their deaths to avoid unwanted male attention during an October 2023 episode of Live with Kelly and Mark. Kelly joked that frogs “get that from us,” but Mark said he has a trick for seeing if Kelly is faking her death.

“When she’s faking her own death, I put [a little mirror] over her face to see if she’s breathing,” he said. “If it fogs up, it’s gonna be a nice Friday night.”

Kelly added, “That’s why I’ve learned to hold my breath for seven to 18 minutes! He thinks I’m dead constantly!”

When discussing how Kelly could improve her “death pose,” she explained why stretching out like a frog won’t work.

“I’m always afraid to stretch out though, because stretching out to you is sometimes like, that act in and of itself,” she said, prompting Mark to interject, “That’s second base!”

The couple discussed an article about celebrities over 50 posing nude during the April 28, 2023, episode of Live With Kelly and Mark, which led Kelly to encourage Mark to do the same.

“Baring it all has no age limit, do you agree?” Mark asked his wife at the beginning of the conversation. “I like it, I’m for it! Body positivity, why not?”

She replied, “Of course — especially their bodies, my goodness. They are like, it’s like the Benjamin Buttoning of all Benjamin Buttons. Gwyneth Paltrow, Halle BerryPaulina Porizkova, Jennifer Lopez, Martha Stewart.”

Kelly then asked her husband if he would post nude, to which he replied, “No, I would not.”

Holmes and Amy Robach‘s romance and what it will be like for Kelly to work with the man who shares her bed.

ENDING UP IN THE ER

Kelly detailed a sexual encounter with Mark from 1997 that resulted with her blacking out and being hospitalized in her memoir, Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories.

“My eyes shift between the fuzzy images on the screen, the remnants of my ovarian tormentor, and Mark happily snacking away,” she recalled of waking up in the hospital in an excerpt published by Haute Living in September 2022.

“Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted,” Kelly explained on Mark. “There he is, happily munching on the saltines now and ordering a second apple juice. Mark could be at a movie, or a spa. Instead, I’m flat on my back wondering when the other two cysts will burst.”

After she woke up, Kelly shared that Mark had dressed her in a 1980s French-cut leotard, an oversized pair of track pants and “f–k me” Manolo Blahniks for the hospital visit.

“Also, here is my husband, who is, dare I say, stylish, well-dressed at all times, and yet he dressed me like a dime store prostitute in my time of need,” she continued. “It’s still baffling to me to this day that this is the best costume for the day that he could find for me, to the point where, when I was on the stretcher, I thought I was dreaming; I was having a nightmare. I didn’t realize I had come to.”

POSTING FOR MADONNA

While appearing on the November 28 episode of the “Everything Iconic” podcast, Kelly revealed why she shares so many thirst trap photos of Mark on social media.

Noting that she’s been known to share sexy photos of her husband, Kelly explained that she was inspired to post the snaps after learning that Madonna was following her on Instagram.

“[Celebrity trainer] Isaac Boots told me. He’s like, ‘Oh, my God, Madonna followed you,’ and I was like, ‘What? What? What?!’ And I immediately sort of changed everything I posted,” she explained. “I started posting only shirtless photos of Mark because I was like, ‘Madonna doesn’t want to see my kids. She wants to see eye candy.’”

After admitting that the idea was “so dark-sided,” the talk show host added, “My thought bubbles of Madonna following me and me feeding her something was like, forget anybody else.”
