MICHAEL WAS 20 WHEN TANITA WAS BORN

Tanita was born to Strahan and his ex, Wanda Hutchins in 1992 when he was still a college student and a rising football star. In his 2015 book "Wake Up Happy," he revealed that he welcomed his daughter during his senior year in Texas Southern when he was about to make it to the pros. He further wrote:

"I was twenty years old and I was going to have a baby. My fiancèe was back home in Germany, and I wished I had figured out a way to get home for the birth."
