“I think marriage is great, I really do,” Michael Strahan <\/strong><\/a>said in a 2018 episode<\/a> of In Depth With Graham Bensinger<\/em>. “I know I’ve had a few failures, and I say you learn from your failures, right? \u2026 I love marriage. I like companionship. I’m not against it at all. Would I ever get married again? I’ll never say never.”<\/p>\n While marriage is not off the table for the former New York Giants<\/strong> player, it’s been a while since Michael had a ring on his finger. The Good Morning America <\/em>host has been married twice \u2013 first to Wanda Hutchins<\/strong> and then to Jean Muggli<\/strong>. Both marriages have resulted in children, with Wanda and Michael welcoming daughter Tanita <\/strong>in 1992 and son Michael Jr. <\/strong>in 1995. Jean and Michael’s twin daughters<\/a>, Isabella <\/strong>and Sophia<\/strong>, were born in 2004. He is also currently reportedly dating Kayla Quick<\/strong>.<\/p>\n As Michael continues his journey for companionship and the third Mrs. Strahan, here’s what you need to know about his past two marriages.<\/p>\n Although Michael tends to be pretty private about his romances, he’s reportedly been dating his current girlfriend Kayla since 2015. She has stayed mostly behind the camera, but has made rare public appearances to support Michael in the past. One of the events she showed up to was his Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony back in Jan. 2023. She posed for several photos with him and even shared a kiss in front of his star. Kayla, who reportedly founded and runs a beauty-based wellness brand called Fizzness, also appeared in an Instagram<\/a> photo Michael posted for Christmas 2021. It included a cute photo<\/a> of him and his kids posing with Kayla in matching pajamas.<\/p>\n Michael’s second marriage to Jean Muggli “was definitely not the greatest experience,” he said in that 2018 interview. Jean was born on Nov. 30, 1964, according to The Sun<\/a><\/em>, which also reports she is the manager of a cosmetic store in New York City. The two reportedly met in a salon, per Parade<\/a><\/em>, and the marriage was a relatively short one. The two tied the knot in 1999, but months after their twins were born, Michael and Jean split.<\/p>\n “It’s unfortunate that some marriages don’t always work out for both parties, but that’s a painful reality of the times we live in,” Michael said in a statement in 2005, per The New York Post<\/a><\/em>. “I love my children with all my heart and will continue to be the father figure that I had growing up. I owe it to my daughters to end my marriage respectfully and with dignity.”<\/p>\n Michael was the one who filed for divorce, and in 2020, TMZ<\/a> reportedly obtained documents where he accused his ex of engaging in a “pattern of abusive conduct towards the children for years.” Following the breakup, Jean accused Michael of domestic violence after an argument over money, but Parade <\/em>notes that “a judge dismissed her claims, which Strahan himself denied.”<\/p>\n “I would never physically or psychologically harm any of my loved ones, especially my wife,” Michael said in his 2005 statement. “That’s simply not the man I am. I will continue to respect Jean’s privacy and not contribute to a public spectacle of an extremely private matter.”<\/p>\n Michael sought sole custody of his daughters, but the couple settled on a shared custody arrangement in 2020, per Page Six<\/a><\/em>. The arrangement lasted until the girls’ 18th birthday when they were deemed legal adults and free to choose how they spent their time with their parents.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s an adjustment when you see your babies, obviously, they\u2019re not babies anymore, and they\u2019re going to prom and you just don\u2019t want to let them out of your sight,\u201d Michael told\u00a0HollywoodLife<\/strong><\/a> EXCLUSIVELY at a 2022 ABC press junket. \u201cI\u2019m like, \u2018I will gladly drive you and chaperone prom. I have no problem. I\u2019ll clear the schedule for that.\u2019 But neither one of them wants that.\u201d<\/p>\n Michael and Wanda Hutchins, an interior designer, tied the knot in 1992 following the birth of their daughter. The two met when he was 17 and living in Germany, where his father, an Army Major, was stationed. “My first marriage with Wanda, we were just young. She’s one of my best friends to this day, and I love her to death. And we have two great kids,” Michael said of his first marriage in a 2018 interview with Graham Bensinger<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Michael ultimately said that both he and Wanda realized they were “out of our league” during their marriage, that they were “kids playing adults.” He split his time between Germany and Texas, where he played football for Texas Southern University. In 1993, the New York Giants drafted Michael, and he became a father for the second time after Wanda gave birth to their son.<\/p>\nMichael’s Relationship With Kayla Quick<\/h2>\n
