PUBLISHED NOV 7, 2018

As if there's any shortage of real-life couples on the set of The CW's 'Riverdale,' another celebrity IRL couple is debuting this season, but not in a way you'd expect. Kelly Ripa is all set to star as Mrs. Mulwray, the mistress of Hiram Lodge, played by Ripa's real-life husband Mark Consuelos.

The latest cast announcement for The CW and Netflix show came in as the 48-year-old TV presenter posted a picture of herself, as Mrs. Mulwray on the 'Riverdale' set, on Instagram with a sassy caption: “It's a family affair........Hiram's mistress. 23 years of auditioning for a role i was born to play. Coming soon to the @thecwriverdale." Ripa is seen posing fiercely in a skin-tight black and gold mini dress, seated in a high-backed leather armchair, holding a black cane.
