No, She Didn't: You Won't Believe the Shade Kelly Ripa Is Throwing at Michael Strahan Now

The talk show host is making some changes of her own.

Michael Strahan has officially made his departure from the morning show he hosted for four years with Kelly Ripa, and now that he's gone, his former co-host is already making changes.

According to Page Six, sources on the show say Kelly made sure to get rid of all memories of Michael that lingered backstage at LIVE! With Kelly and Michael.

"There are pictures of [Michael and Kelly] in the hallway that greet all the guests," the source said. "And there are pictures of them in the green room. That will all be cleared out and removed. I wouldn't call it redecorating, but it will be 'refreshed.' All that stuff will be boxed up."

While some are considering the "refresh" an act of shade, another insider says it's all a part of the process: "That's consistent with what ABC has done in the past — it's in line with how they have made other changes."

A rep for the show begged to differ, though, saying this "is not true." 
Either way, it sends a clear message to Michael: don't let the door hit you on the way out.
