This is why Kelly Ripa isn’t speaking to two of her children

Like many families, Kelly Ripa’s brood had to make peace with the fact that many milestones will have to be postponed or cancelled. “I feel so bad for my son, Michael, who was supposed to graduate in a couple of weeks,” Ripa explained (via InStyle). “And I really feel bad for my dad who delayed having knee surgery that he can’t obviously have now for so many myriad reasons. He was so looking forward to, you know, watching his grandson graduate from college.”

“And again, these are small problems considering that so many people are losing their loved ones and [are] very, very sick,” she added. “But it just, it is what it is, you know what I mean? Michael, by the way, is not bothered at all.”

Ripa’s son Joaquin, however, was “bothered” by the New York State Education Department’s decision to cancel Regents exams in June. “It’s so funny because my youngest, Joaquin, he’s so different than my other two kids, who would have been dancing, just dancing around the house,” Ripa said. “They would have been so excited. But he has this level of anxiety from it. He felt so prepared for his exams.”

It sounds like the entire Consuelos clan could use a hug!
