Good Morning America Anchors Amy Robach And T.J. Holmes Are Both Reportedly Out At ABC Just Two Months After Their Affair Came To Light

A source with knowledge of the talks taking place this week tells us, “They have not finished mediation — but, yes, that will be conclusion,” as far as Robach and Holmes leaving the network.
Sources close to ABC also told TMZ Friday that after an “extremely contentious” mediation, the station and its anchors have decided to cut ties. Both Robach, 49, and Holmes, 45, will reportedly receive contract payouts.
Less than two months after their affair came to light, GMA3's Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes are reportedly out entirely at ABC. I don't see any other reasonable way to look at this other than seeing how dumb a move this is by the network.
Show of hands who knew GMA 3 was a thing two months ago?
Yep, thought so.
For the first time since its creation in June of 2020 people actually 1) knew about it 2) cared about what was going in within. Sure it took a messy affair that ruined TWO marriages, but since when does ABC have morals?
Quick reminder, this is the same network that hid the Jeffrey Epstein bombshell for years. And yes that is Amy Robach on the screen talking about it off air.
But god forbid two consenting adults have a relationship it's all chaos and people have to lose their heads. Listen, I don't particularly care about GMA 3 or these two individuals. I haven't had any interest in day-time TV programming since TNT took Las Vegas re-runs off the air. That being said on the off-chance likely chance their relationship abruptly ended at some point I would have tuned in for the fireworks that would have followed on the desk after their breakup.
Shame on you ABC for denying us the awkwardness. Isn't the whole endgame ratings? Wouldn't this bring all the ratings? What a mistake.
Also looks like the network tried to nail Amy Robach on several accusations to get out of having to pay her on her way out.
A source told TMZ that, during the discussions, the pair were accused of “various forms of misconduct,” which the insider labeled “a witch hunt.”
Among the accusations was that alcohol had been found in Robach’s dressing room.
However, one insider disputed to the outlet that the allegation was “ridiculous,” as ABC execs had gifted the liquor bottles. Robach was also accused of showing up “drunk” to work after attending the College Football National Championship last year, which an insider said was an “insane” claim.
Think they'll be getting a nice lawsuit in the near future. After that? Maybe a move to a new network? Reality show? Only Fans? The opportunities this day and age are endless.
