The Live co-host shares children Michael, Lola and Joaquin with husband Mark Consuelos

Kelly Ripa has always joked that her daughter Lola, 22, is notoriously private, so much so that she doesn't like it when her mom shares photos of her on social media. 

However, the aspiring singer gave her mom permission to post online about her for a very exciting reason at the start of the week, and Kelly couldn't be prouder! 

The star took to Instagram Stories on Tuesday to share a preview of Lola's latest music video for her song, , which will be released on Friday. 

Alongside the footage, the former actress wrote: "So proud." 

Lola looks to be carving out a career in the music industry following her graduation from New York University earlier this year. 

This is her second song, her first, , came out in 2022, and received rave reviews from fans, as well as her mom and her famous friends. 

Lola studied music at college and even spent a semester in London, where she no doubt was inspired further by the notorious music scene in the UK capital. 

The 22-year-old has had an exciting few months, having recently returned home from Greece, where she enjoyed a vacation with her mom and dad, Mark Consuelos.

Despite growing up in beautiful homes, Kelly and Mark's children are incredibly humble and have been raised with strong work ethics. 

Touching on the way their children are during a chat with Daily Mail, the doting mother said of her children's upbringing: "We want to raise productive people who are thoughtful and selfless."

Chatting to People last year, she said: "They love it. My parents are the last people to sugarcoat anything when it comes to my singing. They are going to tell me if it sounds bad! So when I saw they had a good reaction and liked it, I felt reassured." 

Along with Lola, Kelly and Mark are also parents to sons Michael, 26, and Joaquin, 20. Michael is a talented actor living in Bushwick, Brooklyn, while Joaquin is studying at the University of Michigan.
