Michael Strahan is said to be feuding with co-anchor Robin Roberts and rumor has it that things are so bad between the pair that he is practically begging Kelly Ripa to take him back. Moreover, believe it or not, fans of Live With Kelly & Michael are excited by the possibility of the retired football player returning to the morning show.
Saturday morning, fans of Good Morning America woke up to a series of pictures that had them shaking their heads and asking, what is going on? Splashed on the front page of several magazines were photos of an alleged altercation between Strahan and Roberts.
The duo seemed to be angry and avoiding each other in some pictures. While in other snapshots, it looked like they were arguing. In some of the images, ESPN reporter Tom Rinaldi is seen standing in the middle of the chaos as if he is trying to calm Strahan and Roberts down.
According to reports, the pictures of the supposed feud were taken on the morning of January 26 while the TV personalities were talking about the amazing feat accomplished by the Williams sisters. Venus and Serena Williams were set for a showdown in Melbourne after they had won their semifinal matches in the Australian Open.
A source has denied there is any tension on GMA while another spy claimed that Strahan wants to leave. When Strahan, 44, exited Live! after four years, Ripa was unhappy because the move apparently blindsided her.
At the time, Strahan said he left the morning show because they no longer got along. He confessed: “I wasn’t surprised by her reaction at all, but I can’t control somebody else’s actions. I was there four years, and it’s about more than just being in front of the camera. Toward the end of it all, we didn’t communicate that much. I kinda looked at it like, “It was what it was.”
It is being claimed that Roberts told ABC producers that she no longer wants to work with Strahan which is why he is pleading with Ripa to have him back.
