Hilary Duff teases working with Mark Consuelos in ‘How I Met Your Father’
While appearing on Live with Kelly and Ryan, How I Met Your Father star Hilary Duff, who plays Sophie, discussed Mark Consuelos’ appearance on the Hulu show.
Consuelos is married to Kelly Ripa in real life. And as Ryan Seacrest recently announced, he is stepping down as the co-host of Live with Kelly and Ryan. Consuelos will take over Seacrest’s duties, and ABC is rebranding the show as Live with Kelly and Mark.
During the interview with Duff, Ripa remarked, “Mark has not gotten over the fact that he keeps playing the father in everything. He assumes he’s going to be the guy dating on the show. And it’s like, ‘No, you’re a father.’”
Seacrest asked which character’s father Consuelos is playing, and Duff answered, “He plays Francia’s father on the show. So, Valentina. And the funny thing is that my character, Sophie, has a crush on her parents because they’re so hot. And so that should boost Mark a little bit.”
While laughing, Ripa responded, “It’s what brought him back to life.”
How I Met Your Father Season 2 Episode 5, starring Mark Consuelos and Constance Marie, premieres on Tuesday, Feb. 21, on Hulu.
