While Kelly Ripa is reportedly unhappy with Michael Strahan’s announcement that he is leaving “Live With Kelly and Michael” for a full time gig on “Good Morning America,” another lady from his life, Nicole Murphy, is singing his praises.

Murphy, who dated Strahan and was engaged to him for five years joined “Extra’s” Charissa Thompson at Universal Studios Hollywood.

She talked about her show TLC’s “Global Beauty Masters,” and Michael’s big news.

I think it’s a smart move on his part to be quite honest, I mean ‘GMA,’ you can’t get any bigger than that. This really will establish him as far as what he’s doing, I think it’s great.  He was great on ‘Kelly and Michael,’ but he’s also awesome on ‘Good Morning America.’

Monday marks the season finale of her show, “Global Beauty Masters.”

It’s such an amazing show, it’s a competition…I give them certain looks [and they] have to complete the looks.

In June 2009, Nicole & Michael became engaged. In August 2014, Michael and Nicole called it quits, telling the public that it was because of their busy schedules.
