Amy Robach And T.J. Holmes Pictured Looking Cozy In New York
The GMA co-anchors’ on-screen chemistry is hard to ignore, but it seems to also be occurring when the cameras stop rolling too, as pictures obtained by the Daily Mail have shown them getting flirty in NYC, with one picture showing Holmes squeezing Robach’s behind, while another shows them holding hands in the back of a taxi. Another picture showed the two of them getting cozy in a bar, and *definitely* looking like they are more than just friends!

Neither Robach, 49, nor Holmes, 45, have commented on the pictures, and they both deleted their personal Instagram accounts mere hours after the pictures were released. After their affair was exposed, Robach was noticeably absent from the show, leaving Holmes to anchor on his own, creating what has been described as a “PR nightmare.” They reunited to co-anchor the third hour on Thursday, December 1st, but didn’t mention anything about Robach’s absence the day before. Wow!

Robach And Holmes’ Significant Others
The release of these pictures will no doubt be devastating to their spouses! Holmes is married to 45-year-old attorney, Marilee Fiebig, while Robach is married to 55-year-old former Melrose Place actor Andrew Shue – although it’s important to note that several sources have suggested that they both left their respective partners back in August.
Robach and Shue are reportedly close to finalizing their divorce, and they listed their New York home for $5.2M way back in August, although Shue only removed pictures of his wife from his social media after the PDA pictures of her and Holmes were released.
Things changed for Holmes after the photos were released too, as he was pictured without his wedding ring the day after, hinting that perhaps his marriage wasn’t completely over until very, very recently.
It's since been revealed that Holmes' estranged wife was "blindsided" after the PDA pictures were released, with a source telling RadarOnline that even though they have been separated for around six months, she believed they were working towards a reconciliation. "She’s devastated. She had no idea," another source told Page Six. "They haven’t been together in [a while], but they were trying to work it out."

Insiders Say There Was No 'Overlap'
Despite some people thinking that Robach and Holmes went behind their partners' backs and had a full-blown affair, many insiders have insisted that there was no overlap, and they only started seeing each other as more than friends once their relationships with their spouses ended.
"This was two consenting adults who were each separated," an insider reassured People. "They both broke up with their spouses in August within weeks of each other. The relationship didn't start until after that." The insider continued to tell People, "She's got nothing to hide," in reference to Robach, adding: "They were both separated so they felt very comfortable dating in the open after that. Their spouses had moved out, even! So they were not hiding anything."
When Did Their Relationship Evolve?
Although the pair have had undeniable chemistry on screen, their friendship really evolved earlier in the summer, if we are to believe insiders! "Everyone knows that Amy and T.J. have been close friends for a long time now, running together and even socializing as a foursome with each other's spouses," an insider told the Daily Mail.
However, according to reports, T.J. and Amy's friendship really evolved in June earlier this year "when they were in London together filming the Queen's Diamond Jubilee for ABC and staff were buzzing about the intimacy between them," the insider added.
What Do Fans Think?
Interestingly, Twitter is somewhat divided! Some GMA fans love the idea of their on-screen chemistry leading to a relationship, with one writing, "Wow. Their chemistry on TV is undeniable. Love watching them on GMA. I hope they speak on it… on air… straight from the horses' mouths, so that there are no speculations, no rumors, just their truth," and another simply commenting, "This is wild."
Others had nothing but sympathy for their now exes. "Their poor spouses!" one Twitter user exclaimed. "Wow scandal in the morning! I had no idea, they played it off good! But how sad for their spouses, especially Andrew Shue, he used to be on Melrose Place how sad," wrote another. "I thought the on-air flirting was part of the script. I was wrong! Such disrespect to viewers, the Disney Corporation and family members. Shame on both of them!" criticized another.
