T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach announce engagement three years after 'GMA' cheating scandal
T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are now engaged three years after they were removed from GMA3, an offshoot of the Good Morning America franchise at ABC News, in the middle of their reported extramarital affair.
The couple announced their engagement on their podcast on Tuesday, Oct. 14. "We are sharing with all of you that we are engaged," Amy said, revealing that they've been engaged for a month now.
"We wanted to let you all know before anybody else did," added TJ. "We’ve learned that lesson, I guess, from the past regarding our relationship."
Their relationship were first made public in November 2022 as The Daily Mail reported they were having an affair despite being married.
TJ was married to lawyer Marilee Fiebig, while Amy was married to actor Andrew Shue. Sources, however, said the co-anchors have already separated from their respective spouses in August.
Following the Daily Mail report, ABC News didn't make a move, with president Kim Godwin not commenting about the issue during two separate internal meetings, per The New York Times. TJ and Amy also continued anchoring the show on Dec. 1 and 2.
But during an editorial call on Dec. 5, Godwin reportedly announced that their relationship had become an “internal and external distraction," based on accounts of three people.
Daily Mail, citing inside sources, said the co-anchors were removed "indefinitely."
Godwin didn't say how long they would remain off the air or whether they'd return to the program at all, according to The New York Times. She, however, noted at the time that TJ and Amy's relationship wasn't in violation of company policy.
