Exclusive: Ugly Betty Taps Pretty Hunky Consuelos

Some of the whitest teeth the good lord ever put into a human mouth will be sparkling on ABC's
Ugly Betty. Sources tell me exclusively that
Mark Consuelos, the former
MISSING star who gets to call supercool Kelly Ripa his wife, will guest-star on this season's third episode.
This is where it gets... interesting. Despite my best efforts, no one is budging as to who Mark is playing or who he will share scenes with. All I have been able to suss out is that he'll be filming on the "Mode" set, and that his character's arrival plays into a major story arc.
Betty fans, I invite you to speculate away. Just know that thus far, Consuelos is booked for only a single appearance. Though that could change.
Ugly Betty returns Sept. 25.
Mark, who met his Mrs. when they played lovebirds on
All My Children, next can be seen in the Hallmark Channel original
For the Love of Grace, premiering Aug. 30. -
