Kelly Ripa Explains Why She Had to Get Her Earlobes Surgically Fixed: 'I Had Hanging Gauges'

Kelly Ripa recently revealed in a new behind-the-scenes video that she went under the knife — and it was for a rather unexpected procedure.
During the Live with Kelly and Ryan! host’s latest Fashion Finder segment on Instagram TV, the 49-year-old explained why she visited a plastic surgeon to address an issue with her earlobes.
“I had gauges, like hanging gauges,” Ripa says in the video, wearing a bright floral-print Erdem dress and diamond stud earrings.
