Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos shared a story about the lengths that his jealousy took him one night early on in their marriage. 

The couple, who have been married for 24 years, were one of many who agreed to share deeply personal stories in a new book by Marlo Thomas and Phil Donahue titled "What Makes a Marriage Last." In their part, Ripa and Consuelos explained how to deal with a partner’s jealousy.

"After we were married, I was doing a show in Boston, and I couldn’t get a hold of her all day. We didn’t have cell phones then. I got a really bad feeling. So I got on a flight to New York and called her from the plane and asked her what she was doing that night," Consuelos explained in an excerpt from the book provided to People.

"Apparently he thought that sounded very fishy," she explains. "He wanted to catch me. So he gets home and tells the doorman to call up to the apartment and tell me there’s a flower delivery. I’m excited because I’m thinking, 'Oh my gosh, he’s sending me flowers!' Meanwhile, I have a johnny mop in one hand, and I’m wearing a bathrobe. ... So I open the door, and it’s him. He comes in — he doesn’t even say hello. He’s looking for something. I’m still looking for the flower guy! And he’s sweeping the scene!"

Consuelos told Thomas and Donahue that these days he "feels horrible and you know you're wrong. ... I’m less jealous these days."
