LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Michael Strahan’s string of absences from 'Good Morning America’ continues as the 51-year-old missed yet another episode on Tuesday, August 8, after last appearing on the show on Friday.
This comes after Michael missed nearly two weeks of 'GMA' due to unspecified reasons earlier last month. However, fans continue to mount pressure on the morning show host and sometimes yearn to know his whereabouts.
Recently, Michael posted a snapshot of himself on Instagram asking his fans and followers to "be patient" in an extremely cryptic tone. It is not known if the ‘GMA’ star was referring to his absence, but many have deduced that it could be closely related.
Michael Strahan urges fans to ‘be patient’ after missing ‘GMA’
Michael has been absent from 'GMA' since August 4, and Rebecca Jarvis has been filling in for him during his absence. She is hosting the show alongside regular hosts Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos this week.
Rebecca is gradually becoming a familiar presence behind the studio desk and has started to make a name for herself by stepping in for the hosts during their absences. The former NFL star has not provided an explanation for his absence, and it remains unclear when he will return to the morning show.
However, he recently shared a motivational post on Instagram, urging his fans to "be patient." In the post, the host uploaded a photo of himself in a suit against a blurred background. Upon closer inspection, it becomes evident that Michael was on a football field.

He was gazing away from the camera, his face turned to the side, wearing a serious expression. Michael captioned the post, “Other people can spark a vision for your life, but only you can make it happen." He wrote, "Just thinking about it doesn't make it happen."
Michael continued, "Action is the only way to make it happen and all great things take time. So be patient and consistent! #MondayMotivation.”
