Michael Strahan , the NFL legend and the host of Good Morning America , might face a tough few days with his former co-host, Kelly Ripa . While the NFL legend has earned a name for himself after he moved into hosting after a successful career in football, he found himself involved in a bitter situation with Kelly Ripa a few years ago, before he joined Good Morning America. It seems like things might get complicated again in Michael Strahan’s life.

Michael Strahan and his former co-host Kelly Ripa are set to meet again after things got complicated in 2016


Michael Strahan and Kelly Ripa used to co-host “Live! with Kelly and Michael” from 2012 till 2016. But things ended when Michael Strahan left and joined Good Morning America. While there were speculations of things being bitter between the two, it seems like they are all set to meet again.

As per The New York Post, Michael Strahan’s Good Morning America will move from its studio in Times Square to downtown Manhattan next month. Apparently, it is the same facility where Kelly Ripa and her husband Mark Consuelos have been filming “Live with Kelly and Mark”.

A source has revealed that, “They will be feet away from each other — he will be able to smell her perfume.”

As per The New York Post, the source added, “The staff is on tenterhooks. These two do not speak. Plans are in place to get Michael and Kelly in and out without crossing paths.”

But The New York Post also reported that an ABC representative had sent in an email that, “There is absolutely no truth to this – both Kelly and Michael are consummate professionals and are excited to continue to co-host their top-rated shows in our new state of the art studios.”

Neither Michael Strahan nor Kelly Ripa has reacted to the speculations yet and have continued with their professional commitments.

Michael Strahan and Kelly Ripa were fan favourites at one time


At one point, Michael Strahan and Kelly Ripa were a hit duo whom fans loved. Many fans were shocked by the way Michael Strahan suddenly left to join the Good Morning America.

Kelly Ripa had spoken to Variety back then and had said, "I didn't kick up a fuss; it wasn't a big thing; I was just like, I'm not doing this. If I'm not worthy of a discussion, if I'm not worthy of you running this conversation by me — it was outrageous."

While Michael Strahan has not confirmed anything yet, he is enjoying a pretty good phase in his personal life after his daughter, Isabella Strahan, recovered from cancer.
