On Wednesday morning, Deborah Roberts posted a video to her Instagram story, as she fills in for the host.
“Happy Wednesday,” she captioned the post.
“Good morning, early morning. How are you? I’m making my way through the darkness. I don’t know if you can see anything out there,” Deborah said.
“Um, on my way to Good Morning America to join George [Stephanopoulos] and Robin [Roberts] on the set again.”
Al Roker‘s wife continued: “It’s been really a lot of fun. Early, but a lot of fun. I hope you will join us at 7am eastern. See you then.”
Deborah sat in the back of a car as she made that video.

The next two stories were her driving past Times Square to get to the GMA building.
She then arrived at the huge elevator and made her way up before cutting off the video.

When Deborah arrived on set, fans could see she wore a beautiful bright red dress and her hair in curls.
The fill-in host is a correspondent for Senior National Affairs at ABC News and has been sitting in for Michael since Monday.
Last week, Rebecca Jarvis and Lara Spencer took his spot at the desk.
Michael has been missing from GMA since March 27, but has not explained why.
MICHAEL WHO?
Deborah’s fans have stated she should be a “regular” on the morning show.
On Tuesday, the 62-year-old and the rest of the cast spoke with Chris Tucker about his new comedy special.
Deborah took to Instagram to commemorate her time as host as she posted a photo of herself wearing the lemon dress she donned for Monday’s episode.
She captioned her post: “Monday moments. No lemons in this life…only lemonade with the wonderful @goodmorningamerica fam. Happy to hang for more than a few mins this time with @robinrobertsgma @gstephanopoulos @lara.spencer @therealaliwentworth @janai.norman and the gang. See you tomorrow! #grateful #morning.”
Fans were thrilled to see Deborah on air and asked that she become part of the main cast.
They took to Instagram to share that sentiment with her.
One fan commented: “You are amazing on @goodmorningamerica. You should be a regular!!”
A second commented: “love your presence on @goodmorningamerica.”
Another wrote: “Yes we love you on GMA, definitely will watch”
One excited fan begged: “please stay on the show permanently!!”
ON TARGET
Although Michael has been absent from the morning show for nearly two weeks, he has been promoting projects away from the show.
Michael runs a skincare line called Michael Strahan Brand Skin and Shave.
It was originally available on his website, Amazon, Rite Aid, and CVS stores.
But now, users of the skincare line can find it in one more store – Target.
“Take care of that SKIN baby!!! Proud to share @michaelstrahanbrand skin and shave is NOW available at TARGET.COM!! Let’s go! #StrahanSkin,” he shared in an Instagram video.
In the video, Michael sat in his GMA dressing room.
He wore a button-up shirt and dress pants as he put his products into a cosmetic bag.
The voiceover in the video started: “I always bring my skin and shave routine to work. Of course, I do.”
“My face is just as important as my fitness or my outfit.”
Michael continued: “Alright, it’s made with clinically proven activated Silk technology for sensitive skin because I’m a sensitive man.”
“You know where else it’s going to be? Target.com, baby.”
He ended: “So, get on there and give yourself the gift of Strahan-like skin.”
The video ended with Michael giving a thumbs up and then pointing to the camera.
OH MY POD
Michael also announced another project away from GMA on Monday.
He posted a video to his Instagram letting everyone know that he was hosting American Football Trivia.
The host led a series of True or False questions in the video, which fans could vote on.
After the correct answer came up, the GMA host was back on the screen.
“Thanks for playing this trivia with me and if you enjoyed that, you’re going to love our podcast, American Football, on Audible, or wherever you get your podcasts. Check it out,” he ended.
