“CBS This Morning” co-counselor Gayle King has withdrawn her support from news partners Amy Robach and TJ Holmes, calling their relationship “very messy.” Holmes is a well-known face in the industry thanks to his nearly decade-long presence on ABC news’ Good Morning America.
Robach began anchoring the morning show months before Holmes was appointed in 2014. According to recent reports, the years of friendship between the co-workers extended beyond their work environment.
Holmes and Robach, who are married to different people, were spotted in a relationship after being spotted on a private holiday together. Now, recent developments have revealed that the situation is more, in King’s words, “messy” than expected.

Show host King recently described the situation on “Good Morning America” and “GMA3” as “sloppy” and “very messy” since news broke about Holmes’ string of affairs with colleagues. According to the latest information, Robach is not the only person involved with Holmes on the ABC show’s crew.
While speaking with Andy Cohen on “Watch What Happens Live,” King revealed that after news of the two’s affair broke, he initially supported them and ABC for not pulling the couple off the air. He has now withdrawn his support, saying the whole situation seems to be falling apart.
“At first, I actually thought, ‘Good Morning America.’ They say they didn’t pull it off the air. It’s two consenting adults,” King said. “But the more you read, it’s really messy.”

King also talked about the families of each of the co-counselors and how concerned he was about their involvement in the situation. He said, “I think, for me, it’s just a sad situation because you’ve got kids involved, you’ve got families involved, and I keep thinking about it. I’m very concerned about that.”
Holmes has been married for more than ten years to Marilee Fiebig, and they have a daughter together. Sauh also has two children from his previous marriage to Amy Freson. Robach, after all, is the mother of two girls, Ava and Annie, with Tim McIntosh, her ex-husband. She is currently in the process of finalizing her divorce from her estranged husband, Andrew Shue.
Towards the end of November, the “GMA3” anchor was found to be in a relationship after photos and videos, via Daily Mail, emerged of them holding each other’s hands on vacation. They were also seen acting cozy in a New York bar.

Despite making an appearance on the show shortly after their affair became public, ABC News recently announced that Holmes and Robach will be kicked out of “GMA3.” Kim Godwin, the company’s president, made the announcement during an internal call on Monday.

The advisers were told not to host every day at 1pm due to internal and external distractions caused by their affairs. The president said, “After much thought, I’m taking Amy and TJ off the air while we figure this out.” Although office affairs do not violate company policy, removing them from their prime positions is necessary for the “GMA” brand.
Stephanie Ramos and Gio Benitez replaced Holmes and Robach on the show as further meetings on the situation took place. The anchors were given some time, but it was not mentioned who would replace them.
ABC Is Investigating TJ Holmes

Although Robach did not get along well with her husband, Page Six revealed that Fiebig, Holmes’ wife, was “blindsided” by the affair. The duo is reportedly in the process of reconciling, and Fiebig is mostly concerned about Holmes’ affair with Natasha Singh, a producer at “GMA.” Sources claim that Singh fell in love with the news anchor and gave her the keys to his apartment.
Holmes, in the end, doesn’t seem to share the same feelings with the publisher. He was revealed to have allegedly cheated on his wife with several staff members at ABC. In addition to Robach and Singh, Holmes was reportedly involved with at least one other employee in the company.
In light of the new information, ABC News revealed that they will investigate the lead’s behavior to determine if it violates ABC policy. An insider said, “It’s one thing for her to be in a relationship with another anchor. The question is whether he violated company rules by dating a less senior employee.”
