Kelly Ripa opens up about staying stress-free during Christmas

Kelly Ripa has found a new hack to stay stress-free during family Christmas celebrations.

While conversing with PEOPLE magazine during a backstage chat at Live with Kelly and Mark, the 55-year-old American actress and talk show host opened up about celebrating the festive season with simplified traditions and catered meals.

Ripa, who with her husband Mark Consuelos had told their fans about completely skipping cooking for Thanksgiving, said her family is all set to celebrate the auspicious occasion as per the cultural norms.

Articulating her thoughts, she quipped, "My goal is to cater as much as possible. My new outlook on life is to do the least amount of work possible when I'm not working."

The Sharknado 2 star went on to note that even though they are putting the energy into Christmas, they will not go overboard with the setup.

"We'll be cooking and hosting, but not too much," Ripa noted.

"A London Christmas would be nice at some point," Consuelos suggested, to which the Generation Gap alum endorsed by saying, "Eventually. We still have responsibilities at home."

It is pertinent to mention that Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, who share three children together, Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22, celebrated Thanksgiving in London, enjoying a family dinner at a hotel.
