Sara Haines shared a surprise reunion photo with Michael Strahan backstage at The View.
Haines previously co-hosted GMA3: Strahan, Sara, and Keke with the Good Morning America personality.
The GMA offshoot (also starring Keke Palmer) ended in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The cohost cast of Strahan, Sara, and Keke is nearly a full trio once again.
In a new series of photos shared to The View panelist's Instagram page, Sara Haines revealed a surprise reunion she had with her former colleague Michael Strahan six years after their joint tenure (alongside actress Keke Palmer) came to an end on GMA3: Strahan, Sara, and Keke in 2020.
"Some highlights," Haines, 48, wrote in the caption for the post (below), which showed her embracing Strahan, 54, backstage at the ABC studios in New York City.

One of Haines' sons is also present in the photo, as it was taken on a day that saw show staff bring their children to work.
Strahan and Haines previously co-hosted Strahan, Sara, and Keke together with Palmer, who wasn't present for the most recent reunion, but has appeared as an interview guest on The View since the former talk show ended in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
While the Good Morning America offshoot went off the air and was eventually rebranded following the pandemic, the trio of cohosts have remained friends ever since. It was initially titled GMA Day in 2018, evolved to become Strahan and Sara in 2019, and underwent an additional change in title to GMA3: Strahan, Sara, and Keke with the addition of Palmer.

Haines teared while interviewing Strahan on The View in January 2025, as the pair discussed the television special Life Interrupted: Isabella Strahan's Fight Against Cancer, which chronicled Strahan's daughter's battle with cancer.
"You're just a father who knows nothing more than to fix what you can for your kids. I can't fix this. All I can do is sit back and pray that we have the right doctors and that it's something that can be treated so she can get back to being as normal as possible and get back to her life," Strahan said at the time. "She has shown me. I've learned so much watching her go through all of this, but it's the toughest thing to sit in a hospital room with your kid, and you just sit there and tell them you love them, and have your kid look at you and say, 'Dad, I'll do whatever they say. I just want to live. I don't want to die.'"
