The 'Riverdale' star is known for making it difficult for the contestants to win their mugs, the prize for winning the trivia. Kelly on the other hand burst out laughing and really wanted Christine to beat Mark. She ended up winning the mug, leaving Mark defensive about his win-loss record.

Who is Christine Earley? 

On Friday's episode of 'Live with Kelly and Mark', Christine Earley was welcomed to the show by hosts Mark and Kelly who were presenting the Grow For It Spring Trivia on the morning show. Upon playing the trivia, she jokingly warns Mark to be nice to her as she really wants to win the mug. "You be nice, Mark, I really want this mug," said Christine which prompted Kelly to laugh unhinged and said, "Christine, I really want you to beat Mark". Mark replied, "This is just a fun game". She provided two statements, one that's true and one that's false. Her first statement was she said she went to Disneyland Paris and her second statement, "Went parasailing on the Hudson river". Trying to decipher the correct statement, the hosts spend a while interrogating her until Kelly came up with the right statement that she went to Disneyland in Paris. Christine went on to win the mug much to the visible disappointment of Mark who jokingly said "Just for the record, Christine, this does not go against my win/loss record".

Christine is a resident of Coeur D'Alene, Idaho, where surprisingly our hosts 'always wanted to go'. Christine is married to her "favorite person" husband George Earley and the seemingly energetic pair have a beautiful life. She has her own bakery business which she calls 'Christine's Cookies' in the same place where she lives. She has a close-knit family as she often shares pictures of her having trips with her family quite frequently.

Mark Consuelos hinders a contestant from winning

During a trivia game, Kelly suggested to her husband Mark which answer to choose to help Leah win a mug. However, Mark ignored her suggestion and chose the wrong answer. When Leah won the game, Kelly threw Mark under the bus for not listening to her. Mark was hesitant about Kelly's suggestion, saying "No, I don't do that, I don't do that." Kelly explained to him, "No, if you want her to win, you have to pick the one that you believe is false but you say it's true." Despite Kelly's guidance, Mark chose the wrong answer. Kelly felt embarrassed and frustrated when his mistake was revealed. "I'm sorry you didn't win a mug," said Mark, trying to make light of the situation. "No, you're not, because I told you which one to pick," Kelly shot back. In the end, Mark tried to smooth things over by suggesting they give the mugs away.
