Kelly Ripa Opens Up About What Really Happened with Michael Strahan: 'People Deserve Respect'

Kelly Ripa is opening up in this exclusive interview on how she really feels about Michael Strahan's departure from Live! – and what's next for her. Subscribe now for her side of the story, only in PEOPLE!

Michael Strahan will depart from Live! With Kelly and Michael after under four years on Friday, and co-host Kelly Ripa is "excited" for the soon-to-beGood Morning America star – despite how the news of Strahan's departure played out in the last few weeks.

Ripa exclusively opens up to PEOPLE for this week's cover story about why she decided to take a stand for herself after being blindsided by the announcement that Strahan was moving on – information she learned at almost the same time as the media.

"There's a part of me that can say, 'Okay, I understand. This may have been an oversight,' " Ripa explains of getting the information late. "And again, after 26 years, at this point we are like a family. And sometimes when you are so comfortable with somebody, you may not give them the same consideration as somebody you're not as comfortable with – a certain formality falls away."

A source
told PEOPLE in April that Ripa felt "betrayed and so hurt" by how Strahan's announcement was handled, and she later explained to the show's audience that the entire scenario highlighted the importance of "communication, consideration and, most importantly, respect in the workplace."

"I think that all people are deserving of fair treatment in the work place. People deserve respect," Ripa tells PEOPLE. "People should be treated equally and with dignity."

She continues, "I think that requires a certain amount of empathy on a level. When you're dealing with big business, it's easy to forget that you're dealing with people and that people have feelings. It's easy to just look at it like a business unit, a unit, a unit."

Despite the drama, Ripa tells PEOPLE of Strahan, ABC and
Live!: "I'm not dealing with monsters. I don't think of anybody as a monster or out to get me. But sometimes stability and dependability can be misinterpreted as passive. Like, 'Oh, we don't have to worry about her, she's fine. She's fine.' "

She continues, "And I am fine, but I need assurances that we're all going to be fine."

The 45-year-old mom of three is also explaining why she skipped Live! the day after Strahan's April announcement, jetting off on a week-long anniversary tripwith husband Mark Consuelos.

"I think what people need to understand about the entire situation is that I didn't just not show up," she says. As she was being informed of Strahan's departure, "I said, in the room, 'I am going to take the day off.' I needed to actually sit and gather information. I needed to make sure I said the appropriate things on TV and didn't just come out and say whatever."

Ripa contends that she understands that "things happen," explaining, "I get it. We're excited for Michael. He wanted that job, and it's great for him. I think it is a perfect match, I really do. However, what nobody considered is there's a whole other group of people that it really impacts, because we have to now find another great person."

And finding the perfect "chemistry and camaraderie and trust" isn't easy: "It doesn't fall out of the sky. It takes a lot of work, and it takes a group discussion."

The host says that she was concerned for more than just herself, as a lot of members of the Live! "family" count on show stability for their jobs. She shares, "In that moment there were people looking at me, saying, 'Tell us this is going to be okay. Are we going to be okay?' "

Disney/ABC, which owns and syndicates Live!, has since assured Ripa of her and the show's value, assuaging any fear.

And now, with those assurances firmly in place, Ripa has reached a state of forgiveness.

"People make mistakes, and we're all human," she tells PEOPLE. "They're human and I'm human. We all have these moments, and it's about how you move forward and how you begin again."

do you still rock with Haley for life?

these interviews and background articles are her team trying to put lipstick on a pig... she needs a better PR team because this whole thing reads as she is not professional, and now they back tracking to white wash her tantrum.

in my gut - I just know- KNOW- that if this happened with a white cohost or ex athlete - she would not have reacted as she did.

That bitch is full of shit - dishonestly implying that she runs the show, EVERYONE in the business and any fan that pays attention knows that Live is Gellman's show - he has to worry about staffing and any new host searches! He was the person that was really blindsided by ABC if they didn't tell him what was coming, but my gut feeling is he knew what was up since the day he hired Mike...

I just flushed my Haley fan club card away

I just flushed my Haley fan club card away

King trust I KNOW this is straight up privileged white girl card being played...

I was just making a point that back in the day ESPECIALLY in college we all thought Hailey was the ONE...and supported her career throughout and she came off so hip and down and cool with "the Blacks" and even SPOKE on how she has such a positive following in a young generation of Black kids who grew up with her...

but this to me IS f*cking offensive and I mentioned it before...

she is throwing a little hissy fit and everyone is bending over backward to accommodate her...

this to me is a TV version of Brett Farve or Peyton Manning, etc.

if she was a Black woman OR a Black man this would not only be roundly criticized her little 2 day VACATION would have been grounds to terminate the contract.

The only pass I will give her is THIS...I bet she would have done the same sh*t to Regis. So I will give her THAT much of the benefit of the doubt that she would have threw a tantrum if this was a white female co-host too. Because we have evidence that these daytime white chicks are vicious (pardon the pun) when it comes to money and ego

(this one of the reasons ABC soap operas no longer exist...the big name female leads REFUSED pay cuts)

But I FULLY accept this was done SPECIFICALLY because she could garner more sympathy and leverage because the big bad black man supposedly betrayed her.

I agree with both assessments of kelly in this situation...for a person who made a show of how respect is necessary in the work place her little digs and asides show anything but respect and professionalism.

a day before her colleague Michael Strahan’s farewell show, and a day after she joked on-air about moving the show to Los Angeles.

“If she’s serious about it, she can push to make something like that happen,” a concerned “Live!” staffer told the Daily News. “You never really know with her, but I don’t think she’d bring something like that up twice — on TV and in her People (magazine) interview — if she wasn’t at least giving it some thought.”

A second, clearly disturbed “Live!” staffer said plainly: “Kelly has talked about how Disney has now made ‘Live!’ a ‘priority’ and that worries me — I have a family and a life here on the East Coast.”


Ripa has said that when news about Strahan leaving first broke, her co-workers on the show looked to her for guidance.

“In that moment there were people looking at me, saying, 'Tell us this is going to be okay. Are we going to be okay?'” she told People.

“And that’s pretty funny,” the staffer said of Ripa’s comment, “because she took the rest of the week off.”

Following news that her husband Mark Consuelos’ new baseball drama, “Pitch,” had been ordered to series, Ripa quipped on Wednesday’s show that her daughter was already researching schools in sunny California.

“I mean, eventually I would have to go, right?” she said when Strahan asked if she might actually relocate to the Golden State. “And then I could be a Hollywood wife.”

Their producer, Michael Gelman, interjected to remind her she had commitments in New York.

Kelly Ripa carried Anderson Cooper book before return to 'Live!'
“Gelman, don’t worry — I’ll take you with me,” Ripa said. “It’ll be called ‘Live!’ from my backyard!”

This isn't about professional conduct and respect because the shit kelly was doing with her snide remarks isn't professional. Her behavior contradicts her own point about work place conduct.

Clearly the relationship between her and michael broke down badly but Regis did the EXACT SAME THING and she didn't flip nearly as much.

Philbin has been cryptic about his reasons, but even at age 80 after over 56 years on TV in L.A. and New York, he has repeatedly insisted he is not retiring. He also has said how much he has enjoyed the show he has done since 1988 (first with Kathie Lee Gifford and since 2001 with Kelly Ripa).

Some said Philbin was finally tired of the daily grind, the early hours and wanted an easier life.

After he said he would leave in early 2011, there were a flurry of stories that said Philbin had balked when told Disney wanted to lower his compensation, which under a contract negotiated in 2008 is reportedly about $21 million a year. That contract also was very restrictive in term of what he could do outside of the show.

Philbin denied it was over salary and said they had never even reached the point of a salary negotiation.

He still isn’t going into detail, but several sources tell THR it was actually a combination of the two factors.

Philbin had apparently been thinking of taking it easier for some time. His show schedule requires him to get up in the wee hours of the morning, and makes living a normal life difficult since he has to go to bed early.

Then when his agent at the time Jim Griffin went in to talk to Disney, sources say he was told the syndication business was soft and the show wasn’t pulling as big numbers as it had. They also apparently brought up how much time Philbin takes off each year.

The bottom line was what mattered, however: It was still a success, but not as big a success, so sources said they were still willing to pay him a lot, but not as much as he had been getting.

Disney officially declined comment on this article and off the record sources said Philbin made clear he wasn’t fired.

Philbin did, however, feel slighted by being asked to take a pay cut. That appears to have triggered his decision to quit the show and seek other options in show biz. He has said in interviews they never got to a discussion of salary specifics, which seems to be true, because he walked when they said it would be for less.

Not long after it became public and irreversible, Philbin fired his longtime agent and signed with the William Morris Endeavor talent agency for representation.

NOW PEEP WHAT HAPPENED WHEN HE TOLD KELLY ABOUT 15 MINUTES BEFORE THEY WALKED OUT ON STAGE FOR THE SHOW:

His move, according to the website, left co-host Kelly Ripa stunned and the production team furious.

The decision to leave came after Philbin's agent Jim Griffin was told the veteran would have to take a pay cut in his new contract because of the show's dipping ratings and the large amount of vacation time he took.

It's unclear when he made the decision to call it quits, but TMZ reported that he let Ripa, his co-host of almost a decade, know about 15 minutes before they went on the air. He told the studio audience shortly after.

"She felt it showed a total lack of respect for her," a source told the website.


The former soap opera star was much more gracious in a statement shortly after the announcement.

"While I realize that nothing is forever, still I had always hoped there would be an exception," Ripa told the Hollywood Reporter in a statement. "I can't overstate what Regis has brought to the table."


Now understand something...Regis and Kelly had been doing that show together for TEN YEARS! 2001–11: Live! with Regis and Kelly
And Regis didn't tell kelly shit until literally minutes before a live show even tho he had sat next to her for TEN YEARS. Early on she would call him "my big man"and he would call her "pippa" they would act lovey dovey, laff together, interested in each others family...all of that and yet Reeg goes I QUIT 15 minutes before show time after ten years together..:hmm: So clearly that relationship broke down at some point if Reeg felt the need to keep his cards that close to his chest with her.

So now we see a REPLAY of the same thing happen with Michael...They started off lovey dovey but at some point there was a breakdown.

When you look at it Michael gave 4 month notice when he announced he was leaving. They told her when the deal was cleared, where they (management) MAY HAVE fucked up was that it was in the news literally 30 minutes after she was told but that shouldn't matter really. Up to the point in the actual meeting the public wasn't aware of he was leaving. Check the timeline:

Up to the point in the actual meeting the public wasn't aware of he was leaving. Check the timeline:

An insider who has spoken to Ripa opened up to the New York Times about what exactly happened in that meeting in a new story published Thursday, April 21.

As the hullabaloo continues, the insider told the Times that Ripa was "told of the move just minutes before the announcement,"and "felt blindsided." Us Weekly breaks down the newspaper's timeline of what exactly went down on Tuesday along with inside scoop from our own sources.

The paper said Ripa was called into a meeting after the show ended on Tuesday. She was joined by Live's executive producer, Michael Gelman, and Dave Davis, the general manager of WABC, which produces Live. "She did not know the purpose of the meeting," the insider told the Times.

Strahan Tells Ripa

Ripa, who was evidently in the dark about Strahan's departure, waited for 20 minutes in the meeting. Finally, the former NFL player entered the room. He then "broke the news that he was leaving."

A source tells Us Weekly that Strahan "wanted to be in the room" with Ripa when she learned about his departure. "Of course he respects and cares about Kelly," the insider says.

According to the Times insider, Ripa got upset with Davis at the meeting. "Didn’t I tell you this was going to happen?" she was quoted as saying to the WABC exec. "I told you two years ago this was going to happen." (Strahan started appearing on GMA twice a week in 2014.)

The Times also reported that Ripa made "little attempt to conceal her displeasure." A source adds to Us Weekly that Ripa was "definitely blindsided by the Michael news" and saw it as a "huge sign of disrespect" that nobody had told her.

Another source tells Us that Ripa's reaction was "totally unexpected." A third source adds that Ripa "stormed out" after "a lot of drama happened."

The word blindsided keeps getting used over and over but blindsided by WHAT??

For nearly four years, Ripa and Strahan have been lauded for their on-air chemistry — a lighthearted rapport that led to a 9 percent rise in the show’s ratings. But off-air, sources say, the two hosts were frosty: Ripa resented Strahan’s lack of devotion to the series and his rising star; Strahan was sick of being Ripa’s lesser-paid sidekick.

Ripa and Strahan after Strahan’s first official day as co-host of “Live!” on Sept. 4, 2012.Photo: Splash News
A show insider says Strahan — who reportedly raked in $4 million as the show’s co-host in 2012 — merely used the program as a steppingstone and quickly became a diva.

He would show up late to screenings, regularly bring his entourage to set, and made the crew stop everything twice a week during pretapings for him to get a haircut at the studio. (A source close to Strahan says the haircuts were approved by “Live” executive producer Michael Gelman.)

While Strahan was as charismatic as could be on camera, one media honcho says, “when he doesn’t need to be on, he shuts down and can be selfish.”

Leading up to last year’s Halloween episode, Strahan was so difficult that “the producers brought in an audience for one of the pretaped segments so he would behave,” says the show insider.

Strahan often butted heads with Gelman. A few years ago, Strahan screamed so loudly at Gelman over a show-related disagreement that one of the producers hid under a staircase because they were “terrified and disturbed,” says the show insider.

Okay if ANY of that is true in the least then Michaels behavior has been HORRIBLE for a while..at least TWO of the four years he's been on the show. If thats the case PLUS she had a hunch he wasn't going stay with the show long term...THEN HOW THE FUCK IS SHE BLINDSIDED by news of him leaving?? And mind you at the time of that meeting SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER THE PUBLIC WAS INFORMED OR NOT! As far as she knows this is just news for her told literally 20 minutes after they taped a show. So basically:

  • They stopped liking each other for a least a year up to this point and stopped talking to each other other than to do the show.
  • She suspects he may the leave the show becuz ABC is sniffing around.
  • She's not aware that anyone else like the public knows about his leaving at the time they tell her.
  • He says his last day is in september a full FOUR MONTH ahead.
Considering the environment and condition of their relationship at that time...Michael gave her 4 month notice and told her not long after the deal was made. :hmm: So how is any of this a surprise for her???

Considering her behavior towards him now..why would he tell her during the negotiations with ABC??

And the People article where she says she basically sped up mikes departure because they have to make preparations for choosing a new cohost is bullshit too. They do 5 shows but they work 4 days because the friday show is usually taped on thursday. Under that schedule Mike could have done say wednesday and thurday doing 3 shows and the cohost tryouts could have done on monday and tuesday over the summer and just before mikes last week a cohost could have been chosen and that monday after mikes last day the new person comes in. If Kelly really wanted to be professional about it she would have kept cool and did the show and all of this drama would have been avoided.

I think the freak out happened because not only is she personally angry with mike (becuz all that attitude and shit is personal) but becuz she was also scared that ABC might fuck with her show in order to bolster GMA's ratings. And for a middling actress who works a few hours four days a week..... Preproduction is probably 2 hours, the show itself is an hour and post production notes and meetings probably 2 or 3 hours after taping..thats 5, 6 hours a day for four days a week...thats PART TIME JOB HOURS..and for that she gets paid between 15 and 20 million...yeah I'd be throwing out all kinds of shit at the ABC execs for threatening that gig if I was her.. so in that regard I don't blame her.

But how she's acting in the show toward michael is uncalled for and bullshit.

This is EXACTLY the type of piece I'm talking for the site....just saying this is it right here...we gotta get on this.
 
Glad you left those cacs behind mike..

I'm on team mike forever now

Kelly is a white woman and the rest of the ppl are white ppl no surprise at all of this smearing
 
Mike happy as fuck he got off that sinking ship.

The staff on live don't even like Kelly anymore. Bitch gonna black ball herself right out of the industry

She overplayed her hand. She was playing the victim card perfectly and has the sympathy.

But instead of taking the high road she took those days off...big mistake.

Those white mom's staying home flipped like I can't do that, u weren't fired.

They flipped so easily because they liked Mike more than her lol
 
They flipped so easily because they liked Mike more than her lol

He was those housewives chocolate fantasy...

hell to be honest I watched cause I liked Regis old yelling cac stuff back in the day...

she got it messed up like it was all about her. Don't get me wrong the chemistry between her and regis and her and Michael was OUTSTANDING and she brought it EVERY show, no slight.

But daytime TV is DYING...she think she exempt?

she really played this wrong cause when you start spilling the tea?

Inevitably you gonna get some on yourself and she did...cause now staff, writers, producers etc are leaking stuff and may tarnish her perfect little image.

She should have been upset hell CRIED on air and did the fake -I don't blame you I love I'm gonna miss you act...

basically saying its those MEAN OLD WHITE MEN IN SUITS who are trying to divide us

black white male female would have LOVED her...

rumors about they were having an affair she was heartbroken those racist suits at Disney didn't like that they were so close...

make a damn Shondra Rhimes soap opera behind the scenes

they would have re-signed her for 3//4 years with a raise plus gave HER some type of small GMA segment

Pipa should have PM'd me.
 
Glad you left those cacs behind mike..

I'm on team mike forever now

Kelly is a white woman and the rest of the ppl are white ppl no surprise at all of this smearing

Seems like the supposed angry black man ...is gotta a WHOLE lot of support from the staff and producers.

Either he was REALLY a nice guy behind the scenes or they realize he on the come up and hitching they wagon to the lead horse.

salute that Black Man.

and double salute for his professionalism throughout which has been conveniently ignored by the press.
 
Strahan’s Positive Q Score — a measurement used in the entertainment industry to assess a celebrity’s likability — is a 21, TheWrap has learned, which is five points higher than the average host studied. Meanwhile, Ripa’s clocks in at just a 13.

Ripa only charts in above-average among women 50 and older. That’s nice and all, but it’s not the main demographic that sponsors are looking for. Worse-yet, females 18-49 seem to dislike her — Ripa recently pulled in just an 8 Positive Q Score from that age/sex group.

Meanwhile, Strahan only drops beneath a 20 among women 18-49 — and even there he still scores a nice 19.


Of course, Ripa has her strengths. For starters, she’s generally better-known than the ex-New York Giants great, which is also quantified by Henry Schafer’s Q Scores company. Ripa is recognized by 62 percent of the total population, while Strahan’s familiarity score is a 45. Both are well-above the average host’s score of 32 percent.

Here’s how Q Scores surveys work: Schafer’s team provides a celebrity’s name and a brief description to more than 1,800 study participants. The viewers are asked if they recognize the person and how they feel about him or her. Schafer’s clients include talent agencies, movie studios, TV networks, etc.

“So, Michael Strahan‘s presence will be sorely missed — not only with respect to his stronger overall appeal, but importantly with the stronger emotional connection he has with men and younger women,” Schafer summed up for TheWrap.
