NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ fans can breathe easy as their two favorite stars, Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan returned to take their places behind the studio desk for the Wednesday, November 15 episode. 

While Roberts missed the show on Tuesday, Strahan has been missing for nearly three weeks from his hosting duties.

Roberts provided minimal details regarding her short absence but did share some information about how she was feeling with her followers.

Strahan however was out due to “personal family matters” as confirmed by ABC executives and his return date was confirmed only recently by the Los Angeles Times.

Robin Roberts gives health update after missing morning show

Prior to the Wednesday broadcast, Roberts shared her customary morning message and prayer with her followers on Instagram, as she typically does before the show.

Commencing the video with laughter, Roberts inquired of the woman behind the camera, "What did you just say, Petula?"

"Girl, you look better than how you feel, girl," Petula said. "You look good.”

"I'm on the mend, but I'm glad I look good," Roberts told her. "And I'm feeling better. Thank you. Thank you."

Subsequently, the 62-year-old expressed the idea that everyone should have their own "hype girls," akin to the ones she has, before proceeding to share the morning message and prayer.

When Roberts returned on Wednesday, she was joined by her regular 'GMA' co-hosts, Michael Strahan and George Stephanopoulos.

The hosts on that day did not address her absence from Tuesday's episode of 'GMA.' Rebecca Jarvis stepped in to fill her role for that particular episode.
