The video Kelly shared was nothing short of heartwarming. It featured a delightful slideshow of photos capturing Michael through the years, surrounded by his famous parents, his siblings—Lola Consuelos, 17, and Joaquin Consuelos, 16—and friends. But that wasn’t all. Kelly didn’t stop at just one post; she kept the celebration going by sharing multiple snapshots of Michael on her Instagram stories. And hey, since it’s a special day, she even gave a shout-out to Michael’s birthday twin, Andy Cohen, who also turned 51 on the same day. Talk about making it a memorable day!
Mark Consuelos Joins the Celebration
Mark Consuelos, 48, wasn’t going to let his son’s special day pass without a proper tribute either. He shared two delightful photo booth pictures from a family trip to Australia back in 2002. “Happy 22 to our #1 … @michaelconsway … you’ve led the way … We love you. So proud of you,” Mark gushed in his caption. Those words alone paint a picture of the close-knit family they are. It’s clear that Michael has always been a guiding light for the Consuelos family, and his parents couldn’t be prouder.

Family Legacy in the Spotlight
Kelly and Mark have always been open about their family life, and in April, Mark couldn’t help but gush about Michael’s acting debut on the hit drama series Riverdale. “Working with my son was probably one of the most exciting things I’ve gotten to experience,” Mark told Esquire. He went on to describe the emotional moment of seeing Michael practice his lines and come to set. “He was so earnest about it. It really was a bucket-list moment for me.” Can you feel the pride radiating from those words? It’s truly heartwarming.
It looks like Michael, who majored in film and TV production at New York University, is already following in his famous parents' footsteps. Besides playing the younger version of his dad’s character, Hiram Lodge, on the CW series, Michael has also made appearances on his mom’s morning talk show, lent his voice to characters in Go, Diego, Go! and Duck Dodgers, and even worked as a production assistant on three episodes of The Goldbergs last year. The talent truly runs deep in this family, and it’s exciting to see Michael carve out his own path in the entertainment world.
The Future Looks Bright
With such a strong foundation of love and support from his parents and siblings, Michael Consuelos is well on his way to achieving great things. Whether it’s acting, producing, or any other creative endeavor, this family clearly has what it takes to make a lasting impact in the entertainment industry. So here’s to Michael on his 22nd birthday—and to the many exciting chapters ahead!
