KELLY Ripa has revealed her husband Mark Consuelos forced her to take out a chapter of her upcoming bombshell-boasting memoir.
The portion that upset him was about a transition period in her marriage.
Kelly, 51, has penned a tell-all book, Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories, out later this month.
The Haute Living outlet shared a sneak peek with interested readers on Friday.
The Live With Kelly and Ryan co-host opens up quite boldly about her sex life and her husband, Mark Consuelos.
She shared in one NSFW moment that he is “such an ac*cksman that he made me pass out,” among other raunchy surprises.
‘IT WAS THE BEST CHAPTER’
But in teasing her book about life, love, her popular daytime talk show, and more – she disclosed that one chapter didn’t make it past her man.
She told Haute Living: “There was only one chapter that he told me I could never, ever put into that book, or any book, and I took it out.”
“I respected him, I respected it, and I was like, ‘I hear you, even though it’s the best chapter. I’ll honor your request to take it out.'”
“It was about a transition period in our marriage.

“It wasn’t the empty-nest transition, but an earlier one, and that’s all I can really say about it without him breaking down the door and somehow knowing I’m even discussing it.”
RAUNCHY READ
Kelly and Mark married in a quickie $179 wedding in Las Vegas in 1996.
The couple – who met in 1995 on the soap opera All My Children – were both based in New York City.
Kelly did write about that the “passing out” incident at length, which occurred in 1997, about six months after the birth of her first child, during an early-morning love-making sesh.
She lost consciousness for a scary reason however – there were two large cysts growing on her ovaries.
“Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted,” she wrote in a teased portion about regaining consciousness in a hospital.
“There I have [Consuelos] is, happily munching on the saltines now and ordering a second apple juice.”
“Mark could be at a movie, or a spa. Instead, I’m flat on my back wondering when the other two cysts will burst.”
After rushing her to hospital, Kelly said she realized Mark had “dressed me like a dime store prostitute in my time of need” – involving “a 1980s-style French-cut leotard and red ‘f*ck me’ Manolo Blahniks.” she wrote.
She added: “It’s still baffling to me to this day that this is the best costume for the day that he could find for me, to the point where, when I was on the stretcher, I thought I was dreaming; I was having a nightmare.”
“I didn’t realize I had come to.”
‘TO SAVE OUR MARRIAGE’
Earlier this year, Kelly made news for sharing a raunchy Instagram photo checking out her husband’s butt.
Her first-ever book sees her proudly exploring this fun, sex-positive side.
And it was actually Mark who wanted her to write it – the stakes were high, she also shared cryptoically.
“Mark was my biggest champion in the whole process,” Kelly told Haute Living.
“He read it with the eye of not just a person reading it because they had to save their own marriage, but with the eye of a reader.”
Kelly and Mark have three children together – daughter Lola, 21, and sons Michael, 25, and Joaquin, 19.
They celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary on May 1.
Kelly paid tribute to the day with a photo of the couple cuddling and called Mark the “love of my life.”
Speaking of milestones, this week, she and Ryan Seacrest celebrated the fifth anniversary of hosting their talk show and her co-host teared up quite sweetly.
Recently while Kelly was absent from the show vacationing Ryan gave her a shoutout in a segment about getting butterflies from your partner after all these years.
“She feels that way about Mark [Consuelos] that I know,” Ryan stated.
