Kelly Ripa doesn’t ‘mind being the villain’ during Mark Co<i></i>nsuelos fights

Kelly Ripa is OK with being the bad guy in her relationship with Mark Consuelos.

“I don’t understand when people say, ‘We never fight.’ I go, ‘Oh, they’re in trouble,'” the longtime “Live” co-host told People Wednesday.

“Many people we know have gone through a divorce and a separation, and when you ask, ‘Why did you guys wind up getting a divorce?,’ it’s always the same answer: ‘I don’t really know.'”

Ripa acknowledged there have been times she and Consuelos “let something small” come between them, but they ultimately put their “heads down, got together and said, ‘Let’s work it out.'”

“We’re not afraid to go there,” she told the magazine. “We have the confidence in our marriage that no matter what we discuss, I don’t mind being the villain in the argument, nor does Mark. Neither one of us needs to be the hero.”

The former “All My Children” co-stars, both 52, will celebrate their 27th wedding anniversary in May.

Although the power couple are set to become co-workers again when Consuelos replaces Ryan Seacrest on “Live” this month, Ripa said she and her husband will not air all their dirty laundry on-air.

“We’re not going to be like, ‘about that thing you said about my mother …,'” she joked.

Yet the “Riverdale” actor isn’t afraid to show the ins and outs of their marriage — as long as it makes for good television.

“If we think something is really going to be funny, then it can be magic,” he told People.

However, some things are off limits for the pair, regardless of ratings.

In light of T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach’s bombshell affair — which drastically boosted “Good Morning America” viewership — Ripa and Consuelos took a “chastity” vow.

“Mark and I have taken a vow of chastity while we’ll be working together because I know how ABC does not like TV partners banging on the side,” she joked earlier this month on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.”

“We promise, no banging on the side,” she continued, despite the couple often talking about their active sex life.

ABC announced in February that Ripa and Consuelos, who have been married since 1996, would be co-hosting the morning show following Seacrest’s departure.

Pvnew later exclusively revealed that the network had been trying to win over Consuelos since last summer.

The couple, who share sons Michael, 25, and Joaquin, 20, and daughter Lola, 21, said it will be a “a complete full circle moment” working together again after meeting on their soap opera set in 1994.
