Without skipping a beat, the Live With Kelly and Mark cohost—in the vein of the popular TikTok trend started by influencer Jools Lebron—commented on the post, “It’s very mindful.”
The carousel of images, set to her sound “Paranoia Silverlining,” shows Lola rocking a bandana and not much else in one shot. Meanwhile, in the second image, she’s wearing a moss green bikini while laying on her stomach and tanning her back.
It’s no surprise that the longtime talk show host wasn’t bothered by her daughter’s racy pic. She and Mark regularly share thirst traps of one another on social media in addition to their on-camera flirting on Live.
Back in April the couple opened up about how their relationship has changed after 28 years of marriage now that they cohost Live With Kelly and Mark together.
"I just feel like a good marriage comes from within," Kelly, who also shares sons Michael Consuelos, 27, and Joaquin Consuelos, 21, with Mark told E! News at the time.

As for their 23-year-old daughter, Lola has earned respect in her own right since graduating from New York University in 2023 thanks to her beautiful voice and impressive online covers of hit songs like Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso.”
