Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes Show Tension Before Caribbean Getaway: What Went Wrong?

BBG News

It looked like there was trouble en route to paradise for Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes this week. 

On Tuesday, the ex-co-hosts of Good Morning America who later became romantic partners were seen at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport, patiently awaiting their flight bound for the Caribbean.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I wouldn’t be surprised if this notorious duo, who are often seen expressing their passionate relationship publicly, would relish in sharing a leisurely breakfast and sipping on bubbly mimosas before jetting off first class to the breathtaking Turks and Caicos Islands. Interestingly enough, Robach happens to own a residence there.

However, it appeared that the two podcast hosts were more on the sour side and seemed to maintain a certain distance from one another, according to an eyewitness who spoke with DailyMail.com.

The original text conveys that the source felt distinctly agitated in the JetBlue lounge at JFK, reminiscent of standing solo at the DMV instead of anticipating a shared romantic escape to immaculate white-sanded coastlines with tranquil turquoise seas. In simpler terms, the source seemed annoyed in the JetBlue lounge, much like waiting alone at the DMV rather than eager for a romantic vacation.

At some moment, an irritable Holmes also growled at a passerby whom he suspected of attempting to take a photograph. ‘Did you manage to capture your image?’ he barked.

According to the source, they probably got into quite a heated argument judging by their current discomfort, as reported to DailyMail.com.

In the first person as a lifestyle expert: From January 2023 onwards, I found myself parting ways with my co-hosts during the third hour of Good Morning America, following a shocking turn of events. Three months earlier, photographs revealing an affair between us had been published by DailyMail.com – a revelation that came as a surprise to many, given we were both married at the time. This unfortunate incident underscores the importance of maintaining boundaries and honesty in personal relationships, even when the public eye is upon us.

In the images, they were seen holding hands in an Uber, affectionately interacting at a bar, and frequently visiting each other’s homes by entering and exiting.

Robach got married to actor Andrew Shue – most famously recognized for playing Billy Campbell in the 90’s TV show Melrose Place – approximately when Holmes tied the knot with Marilee Fiebig, a non-profit leader, in 2010.

As an ardent enthusiast, I can’t help but share the fascinating family dynamics of these remarkable individuals. Sherlock Holmes, in my eyes, is not just a detective, but a father of three – one shared with Fiebig and two from past relationships. On the other hand, Robach, equally captivating, has two children of her own and a stepson who shares a bond with her former spouse, Tim McIntosh.

Initially, the GMA co-hosts became close during their shared experience of long-distance running for a marathon, and they eventually displayed a lively, occasionally flirtatious dynamic on screen. Interestingly, Robach has stated that Holmes was more like a brother figure to her.

Both later said their marriages were failing by the time they fell in love.

The two couples split up shortly after news of the co-hosts’ affair broke in 2022.

Shue and Fiebig have developed a new relationship together, surprisingly, as they previously shared sad stories about their former partners’ relationships and how the media frenzy impacted their respective families.

Instead of openly discussing their past relationships, they have chosen to keep silent about their current one, which some close sources refer to as authentic and genuine, implying it’s not just a temporary thing or a rebound.

52-year-old Robach and 47-year-old Holmes have both voiced frustration since learning about their former partners’ relationship going public on the same day as their ‘Amy & T.J.’ podcast debut in December 2023.

They saw the timing as a deliberate, harmful tactic intended to sabotage their progress in advancing their careers and strengthening their relationships.

‘Holmes stated that there remain individuals or groups determined to pursue us regardless of our actions, and their discomfort stems from our achievements, our contentment, and our future prospects.’

The pair frequently discusses their affection publicly on their podcast, a topic they had been silent about for a whole year following the initial media attention about their romantic involvement.

It has been admitted that they are a couple residing at Holmes’ place, with plans to spend the remainder of their lives as one.

Despite frequently discussing the possibility of getting married, engaging, and appropriate versus awkward proposal methods, they haven’t disclosed any concrete wedding plans or hinted at an engagement yet.

Over the past month, their podcast has focused on the love stories of other celebrities. 

They delved into various subjects, including ‘stringing along’ during courtship (providing enough engagement to maintain interest without serious commitment) and the significance of clear boundaries, open communication, and partnership in relationships.

They’ve openly discussed tough times in their relationship, mentioning that these difficult phases were even more challenging due to the continuous public gaze and criticism they faced on their connection.

Previously, Robach had referred to hitting a low point in her life which she termed as ‘hitting rock bottom’, when the news about their affair became public knowledge.

Last summer, I found myself making headlines alongside Holmes following an animated conversation outside our Manhattan fitness center.

They’ve admitted that, in their rush to rebuild their careers following GMA and prioritizing their children’s welfare, they both neglected spending enough quality time together.

In that podcast episode from last summer, Robach stated that despite always being together, our schedules were either filled with family time or work, and we had a lot of work which is fantastic since we enjoy it. However, this didn’t leave much room for personal time between us.

I’ve been relentless about squeezing those precious moments together into every holiday we manage, one of which kicked off as chaotically as JFK airport on a typical Tuesday.

During the process of reserving his previous journey, Robach accidentally inputted an incorrect year for Holmes’ birthday, leading to a stop and inquiry at the pre-screening stage.

The atmosphere became tense as Robach interrupted Holmes mid-explanation about the mix-up, while he was speaking to the TSA agents.

They were so unsettled and annoyed with one another due to the circumstances, they remained silent throughout the entire flight.

It was unclear whether the couple spent their flight Tuesday morning in a similar silence. 

They hadn’t faced their grumpiness as a unique storm for the first time, and it probably wouldn’t be the final one either.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve observed that they share their lives, their activities, and their tasks in an incredibly close manner. It’s quite remarkable, yet it comes with its own set of challenges.

‘No wonder there are cracks in the relationship now and then,’ our source told us.

‘But I think at the end of the day they love each other and are devoted.’
