Michael Strahan has been absent from “Good Morning America” and it is expected to continue throughout this week.

The “GMA” co-anchor has been absent from his hosting duties for nearly two weeks, which has prompted questions from viewers on his whereabouts.

His last appearance on the ABC News show came on Oct. 26.

It turns out he is dealing with family matters. Strahan’s NFL co-host, Curt Menefee, told viewers that he would not be appearing on the sports show because he was dealing with a personal matter.

“Michael Strahan will not be with us this week as he is dealing with some personal family matters,” a network spokesperson said in a statement to The Times. “We appreciate everyone’s thoughts and concerns.”

Fans have taken to his Instagram to send well wishes.




The former New York Giants star typically works alongside Robin Roberts, George Stephanopoulos, Lara Spencer, and Ginger Zee on the morning show.

Strahan has also been absent from Strahan’s “Fox NFL Sunday.” He has been silent on social media, with his last post being on October 25 promoting his show “The $100,000 Pyramid.”

ABC anchor Linsey Davis has been filling in and is expected to continue doing so until Strahan can return.

Strahan retired with 141.5 career sacks, 854 career tackles, four career interceptions, 24 forced fumbles, and three career touchdowns in 200 games over a 15-year career.

The 2024 Paris Olympics was Stephen Curry’s first ever appearance in the Paris Olympics. The Golden State Warriors star poured so much athleticism into his first appearance on the international stage that caught everyone’s attention, including popular NBA analyst Skip Bayless.

After Team USA’s 98-87 victory over France in the Olympics final, LeBron James was crowned with the MVP title of the tournament. Soon after that, Bayless stirred controversy by posting on social media that LeBron should not win the MVP title. Rather, the sports analyst sees Curry as the real winner of the title.

I’M SORRY, NOW THERE’S NO WAY LEBRON IS MVP. IT HAS TO BE STEPH. 17 THREES IN THE SEMI AND THE FINAL. WE WOULD NOT HAVE WON EITHER WITHOUT HIM,” Bayless wrote in an X post.

Curry scored 24 points in the final game against France. With his outstanding shooting skills, the Warriors star hit eight three-pointers, three of which came in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. On the other hand, James contributed 14 points and 10 assists and shot an impressive 60% from the field.
