Kelly Ripa has certainly suffered for pleasure after recalling the time she fell unconscious in the middle of sex with husband Mark Consuelos before being rushed to hospital.
The Live With Kelly and Ryan host has been married to her former All My Children co-star Mark since 1996 and the couple share three children; Michael, 25, Joaquin, 10, and Lola, 21.
Over the course of their 26-year marriage, Kelly and Mark, both 51, have naturally encountered their fair share of speed bumps but blacking out during sex might just top them all.
Kelly is set to release her memoir, Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories, on September 27 and one particular anecdote sees her recall a huge blunder she and Mark experienced in the bedroom.
The two were newlyweds and getting to grips being first-time parents to six-month-old Michael when the incident happened in 1997.
Kelly completely passed out during sex but not because she was having the time of her life – although she was – but due to two ovarian cysts she was unaware were there.

Recalling how she woke up in hospital, Kelly writes in her book according to Haute Living: ‘My eyes shift between the fuzzy images on the screen, the remnants of my ovarian tormentor, and Mark happily snacking away.
‘Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted. There he 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.’

Even in her hospital bed, Kelly was alert enough to chide her husband over her outfit choice after he rushed her to hospital in a French-cut leotard and red ‘f**k me’ Manolo Blahniks, which could easily have been a scene straight from Sex and the City.
She wrote: ‘Also, here is my husband, who is, dare I say, stylish, well-dressed at all times, and yet he dressed me like a dime store prostitute in my time of need.
‘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 realise I had come to.’
It’s not the first time Kelly has dished on her sex life with Mark, after previously sharing that they resolve arguments with ‘sexy time’.
