AreKelly RipaandJake Gyllenhaalthe next celebrity couple?
“Jake, you feel as good as you look. Like a fine cashmere sweater. You are a human cashmere sweater,” Ripa, 48, told Gyllenhaal, 38, as the actor joined the mother of three andRyan SeacrestonLive with Kelly and Ryanon Friday.
“Now, the reason I bring this up is because I have a proposition for you,” Ripa explained. “Now, I have received a letter, from my neighbor, who received a letter addressed to me to their address. And said, ‘I think this is for you, I accidentally opened it.’ You’re in this, so brace yourself.”
Based on his reaction, Gyllenhaal was nowhere near ready to hear what came next.
“This is from February. Okay, so it took a while to get it,” Ripa said, then began reading the letter: “‘DearKelly Ripa, you should divorce your husbandMark Consuelosand marry Jake Gyllenhaal.'”
“Now I am not discounting this letter at all. I just want to put that out there,” Ripa said.
Gyllenhaal was clearly taken aback, but gamely encouraged Ripa to continue, saying, “Bold.”
She then continued to read: “‘He was onTheTonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallonon the 19th’ — She provides me with thelink— ‘it may be better for your children.'”
And that’s what really surprised theSpiderman: Far From Homestar, as he looked at the audience in shock.
“So, what do you say?” Ripa asked.
Gyllenhaal gathered himself and answered: “It feels like a lot of pressure for a moment like this” — but then he added, “I’m open to it.”

If you’re thinking that Ripa’s husband, theRiverdalestar known to be caught insteamy photoson his wife’s Instagram, is receiving the short end of the stick with this new arrangement, have no fear.
“Wow,” Gyllenhaal said. “Well, great.”
Ripa and Consuelos, 48, share three children, Michael, 22,Lola, 18, and Joaquin, 16. While the letter did not specifywhyGyllenhaal would be so good for the kids, perhaps this mystery writer likes what Gyllenhaal had to say in the February interview withJimmy Fallon, in which he spoke about his role in the Marvel universe and his recentlyjoining Instagram.

Seacrest, 44, pointed out that all of Gyllenhaal’s traveling might not be very conducive to family life, but Ripa disagreed.
“It’s perfect for us!” she said.
“Well, you bring back culture, and you know, you teach them certain things,” Gyllenhaal added. “There’s always an upside.” Ripa added that they all love “airport gifts,” too.
