In case you missed it, Mandel was a guest on the talk show this week, in part celebrating his 70th birthday, and both Ripa and co-host husband Mark Consueloswere attempting to shower him in compliments about his healthy physique and his looks.
Mandel interrupted her saying, “What do you mean that doesn’t make any sense?”
This led to an awkward back and forth where Mandel explained he didn't like hearing he looked good only in in context with his age, and Ripa tried to explain that wasn't what she was saying at all.
(We previously called out how Ripa, probably unwittingly, did use ageist language, despite how very socially acceptable it is to do so.)
There are unconfirmed rumors that Ripa was upset by the joke. Perhaps this is why Mandel is now struggling really, really hard to apologize in his very Howie Mandel type of way.
After a pause, he says, "But this is for Kelly Ripa ..."
