His usual co-anchors Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan have been consistently present over the week, but his absence has gone unmentioned on the show.

However, his family may have clued fans in on his whereabouts, as his wife Ali Wentworth took to social media to reveal she was on vacation.

She shared a picture of herself on a fishing trip in Montauk, and presumably had her husband by her side taking candid shots while there.

The popular journalist rarely ever leaves his position on GMA for non-work related reasons, so it was refreshing for fans to see him take a break to spend time with loved ones.
