Michael Strahan ‘s absence from Good Morning America has now continued into its second week. But Friday’s (July 5) broadcast aired with an even bigger surprise for fans of the daytime news show: George Stephanopolous and Robin Roberts were also missing from the morning broadcast.

Instead, ABC correspondents Gio Benitez , Rebecca Jarvis , and Whit Johnson were filling in for the longtime anchors.

Where Has Michael Strahan Been? Why The ‘Good Morning America’ Host Is Not On The Air

This morning’s broadcast may come as a disappointment for fans who have been waiting for Strahan to return to the show. But Strahan and the GMA crew weren’t the only ones to have a co-host shakeup this holiday week. Other daytime programs like Today and CBS Mornings also saw some key players missing, with Hoda Kotb , Savannah Guthrie and Gayle King off the air this morning.

While the ABC correspondents did not share why Strahan, Roberts and Stephanopolous were not on the show that morning, we may be able to guess when they’ll be back on the GMA desk. Here’s what we know so far.

DECIDER can confirm that Strahan is expected back on the show beginning the week of July 7.

Stephanopolous, on the other hand, is working on an exclusive interview with President Joe Biden on ABC. A first look at his interview will air Friday (July 5) evening on World News Tonight with David Muir . An extended cut will air on This Week with George Stephanopoulos on Sunday, July 7, and Good Morning America on Monday, July 8.

As for Roberts, it’s likely she went away on vacation for the July 4 holiday. Roberts recently enjoyed a reporting trip to Portugal with ABC and her wife, Amber Laign.

Fingers crossed a much-needed reunion between the co-hosts may be coming down the pipeline!
