Good Morning America’s producers were shocked when they heard about their affair. A member of the staff said that the two share a cozy and warm relationship on air because they are supposed to be amicable in front of the camera. However, the two are rumored to have been very careful about hiding their supposed affair as no one seemingly knew about it.

According to People magazine’s report, both TJ and Amy have separated from their respective spouses before indirectly confirming their dating allegations. Amy married actor Andrew Shue in 2010, and in the same year, TJ married Marilee Fiebig, an immigration lawyer.

While the duo ended their respective marriages in August, their affair is suspected to have been going on since March 2022. Netizens are expressing their distaste for the whole matter, accusing the two of cheating on their spouses.

The day after the news of the alleged affair broke out, Page Six reported that Holmes and Robach arrived at the GMA and, according to sources, it was as if nothing had happened. A source also said that the alleged couple claime dthat they didn’t start a romantic relationship until after separating from their spouses. The source further added,

“They’re in a relationship, they’re very happy. They are both broken up from their spouses and they’re two consenting adults — they have the right to do what they want.”
