Kelly Ripa’s recent Instagram post has attracted various comments on her weight after posting a video of her wearing a hot pink figure-hugging maxi skirt and a sequin pink cardigan. She accessorized the Barbie-like look with pale yellow heels and a bold necklace.
“Still celebrating the queen’s birthday and dancing my way into tonight’s all-new Generation Gap at 8/7c on ABC!” the caption reads. While the famous TV host looked absolutely gorgeous and trim in the multi-toned fit, a fan dropped a rather blunt comment about her weight, to which Kelly’s fans responded in her defense.

Another person advised the user to “please treat other people with respect” when commenting on their pages. Amid the other negative comments, people thought the 52-year-old looked great. “Kelly, you are absolutely gorgeous,” a fan gushed. “My God, she’s only 50!! and a gorgeous 50 who takes extremely good care of herself,” another praised her. More people dropped heart emojis and other endearing words about her appearance.
How does Kelly stay so trim?
The mother of three is a lover and advocate for fitness and healthy living, so it is no surprise that she has maintained a youthful look into her 50s. Her fitness trainer, Kaiser, revealed on her page that Kelly is dedicated to working out and “NEVER CANCELS!!!”
“Listen, if I can share one secret with you, that is IT. Show up for you, show up for your trainer. Show up because you both deserve to make the magic happen together,” Kaiser wrote, referencing Kelly’s dedication to staying fit.
Kelly has also been vocal about her alkaline diet that comprises unprocessed food, but she also admits that she likes to indulge in healthy snacks from time to time. “I like to drink coffee. I occasionally will have fish. The alkaline diet is primarily a vegan diet, but I like cream in my coffee, so I don’t adhere to it strictly,” she told People in an interview a few years ago.
