Over the weekend, a video made the rounds online of Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa watching one of their 16-year-old son Joaquin’s wrestling matches after Consuelos left his spot in the stands and walked onto the mat after Joaquin’s headgear was ripped off by his opponent.
In a clip shared by TMZ, Consuelos appeared to be heading toward his son’s opponent before another adult pulled him away. The Riverdale star ultimately left the mat and went back to his seat beside his wife as Joaquin put his headgear back on.
