T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are poised to depart GMA3: What You Need To Know, after the two anchors were taken off the air following public revelations of a romantic relationship between the two news figures.
Last month, ABC News President Kim Godwin told staffers that Holmes and Robach were being taken off the air pending an internal investigation. A contentious mediation session was held on Thursday, with the result being that they would be departing, a source said. An official announcement has not yet been made of their exit from the show but was expected soon. TMZ first reported on their departure.
Godwin had told staffers that the relationship between the two anchors had become an “internal and external distraction” in deciding to pull them off the air, as their relationship had been the subject of tabloid headlines. The show has featured fill-in hosts since then.
Holmes and Robach have served as co-hosts of GMA3 since September, 2020, joining ABC News chief medical correspondent Jennifer Ashton and replacing a special program devoted to the Covid pandemic that was launched earlier that year. The previous incarnation of the Good Morning America spinoff, GMA3: Strahan, Sara & Keke, ended earlier that year.
More to come.
