Watch Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ son Michael celebrate graduation
Michael Consuelos finally had a live graduation ceremony.
The eldest son of Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos took to his Instagram Story on May 18 to share a selfie before the long-awaited New York University admission ceremony. The photo gave the viewer a good look at the graduate in his purple cape and cap.
“My head is not built for these stupid hats,” the 24-year-old captioned the photo.
Michael — technically a member of the NYU class of 2020 — studied film at the university.
Although he obtained his diploma almost two years ago, Michael’s official graduation ceremony was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. NYU honored the classes of 2020, 2021, and 2022 at the Yankee Stadium ceremony.
Back in May 2020, proud mother Kelly shared a snap of Michael to honor the completion of his college leg.
“Four years have gone by in the blink of an eye and today you will be taking your final exams in college,” she wrote. “Congratulations Michael! You’re a virtual graduate. Literally!”
