Mark Consuelo drops some heavy news on live with Kelly and Mark, this April 6th. His dad Saul passed away peacefully on March 23rd, 2026, after a long illness. Born in March 1971 to Saul for Mexico and Camilla from Italy, Mark credits his parents for shaping who he is today. Saul came to the U.S. as a team, served 30 years in the Navy, rising to special operations command in Tampa. He kept learning, earning his master's degree while Mark was a kid. Camilla raised the family partly in southern Italy, keeping those roots strong. Kelly Rippa, called Saul the greatest person she's known, saying the whole family will miss him every day. The parents stayed super involved, helping with kids during Mark's work trips and bonding with grandkids at family gatherings. Mark got to say goodbye right before jumping into his Broadway play, Fallen Angels, which became a welcome distraction.

With Mark even joking, she should start a cooking segment on the show to lure her to New York. Life keeps moving, but those lessons stick forever.
