Trading Up? Michael Strahan Quits 'Live' For 'Good Morning America'
April 20 2016, Updated 10:09 a.m. ET
Sorry Kelly Ripa, Michael Strahan is stepping out on you too!
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the former NFL star will be leaving ABC's Live! With Kelly and Michael after four years and joining Good Morning America full time.
ABC News president James Goldston announced the big news Tuesday morning, sharing that Strahan's part time appearances (since 2014) on GMA would transition to a full time role by September.
Meanwhile, the TV host seems to be getting serious with new girlfriend Kayla Quick. But Strahan may be in for a rude awakening when it comes to his new lady.
"It remains to be seen how much Michael really knows about his girlfriend's past!" a source recently told Radar.
The 44-year-old has been seen with the 27-year-old Florida resident on numerous occasions after calling off his engagement to Eddie Murphy's ex-wife Nicole in 2014.
"Kayla was a 'good girl,'" her high school sweetheart Justin Hundley, 28, told Radar, but at some point she changed. "It was like a switch was flipped. Almost overnight she became this huge partier."
Since then, Quick has had intermittent, though well-documented, run-ins with the law. Perhaps Michael's new job will inspire her to stay on the straight and narrow!
