Obamas, more celebs send best wishes to Robin Roberts

A number of celebs were happy to see Robin Roberts back in her anchor chair at “Good Morning America.”

Michelle Obama told Roberts, “Robin, we just want you to know that the whole Obama family, we’ve been thinking about you and praying for you and rooting for you every step of the way.”

Roberts is recovering from MDS, a blood and bone marrow disease. She looked thin with close-cropped hair but was smiling broadly. Roberts told the audience, “I have been waiting 174 days to say this: ‘Good Morning America.'”

Along with the First Lady, other guests on the “GMA” set and via video sent their best wishes: Roberts’ siblings, Sally-Ann and Dorothy, Hillary Clinton, Oprah Winfrey and Kobe Bryant.
