“I didn't realize we had even won an Emmy until I started getting text messages...from all of my friends,” Ripa said on Monday's Live! with Kelly and Michael.

Strahan thanked the show’s staff for their hard work, saying: “It’s about a team and that’s what we have here.”

The award came just days after on-air tension between the hosts hit fever pitch.
