Tuesday morning Kelly Ripa walked hand-in-hand with Strahan onto the stage of her show Tuesday, and Strahan swiftly let his co-host stand alone to talk about the incident. Ripa returned after time off to "gather (her) thoughts" after learning her co-host Michael Strahan was leaving. Ripa said the incident started a conversation about workplace respect and that her bosses have apologized to her, and she'd received assurances that the "Live with Kelly and Michael" show was important to the parent Walt Disney Co. "Guys, calm down, they didn't say anything about Christmas bonuses," she joked after the audience applauded.
