Although Kelly Ripa, 54, joked about divorcing her ABC co-host and husband Mark Consuelos, 53, relationship experts say leaving a spouse at the age of 50 and older is no laughing matter.

Ripa raised the issue on Friday’s episode of “Live with Kelly and Mark” after reading an article about the increase in the number of older couples getting divorced.
