Now that ABC News has cleaned house, it probably needs to fill it back up.
Executives at the Disney news division — and its corporate parent — hoped to cut recent scrutiny by parting ways with Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes, the co-anchors of early-afternoon program “GMA3” who also had a romantic relationship despite being married to other people. On Friday, the two sides broke up, so to speak, with ABC News President Kim Godwin telling staffers she hoped their departure would end a period of “distraction” at the home of “Good Morning America” and “World News Tonight.”
But Godwin and her team are likely to face a period of rebuilding.
Holmes and Robach leave ABC News as it needs to focus more closely on lining up a new tier of talent. Cecilia Vega, a Washington correspondent who frequently filled in for Robin Roberts on “GMA3,” recently left ABC News for a new role at “60 Minutes.

ABC News is officially parting ways with GMA3 anchors Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes.
“After several productive conversations with Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes, about different options, we all agreed it’s best for everyone that they move on from ABC News,” an ABC News spokesperson said Friday evening. “We recognize their talent and commitment over the years and are thankful for their contributions.”
The news anchors became tabloid fodder late last year after they were revealed to have been in a personal relationship. They subsequently left their respective spouses.
The decision follows an internal investigation at the company that looked into whether their relationship violated company policies.
Holmes has been with ABC News since 2014 and has co-anchored GMA3 since 2020. Robach joined ABC News in 2012, and also joined GMA3 in 2020.
Reports of Holmes and Robach’s relationship surfaced in early December in the tabloids, with ABC News president Kim Godwin deciding Dec.

After the heavily publicized romantic relationship that took the gossip world by storm, T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are out at ABC. The channel has severed ties with the former anchors of “GMA3.”
“After several productive conversations with Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes about different options, we all agreed it’s best for everyone that they move on from ABC News. We recognize their talent and commitment over the years and are thankful for their contributions,” an ABC News spokesperson told IndieWire in a statement.
The decision was reportedly made after a Thursday mediation session regarding the two anchors’ futures at the network, according to TMZ. They were previously suspended from their show — which they co-hosted with Jennifer Ashton — in December. The report further states that the mediation was contentious, with ABC taking issue with their failure to disclose their romantic relationship to executives and behavior on set that reportedly made staff “uncomfortable.

T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach’s fate at ABC is still up in the air.
Despite talk that the “GMA3” anchors are unlikely to return, ABC isn’t looking for potential replacements, TMZ reports.
The outlet has learned that ABC’s currently focused on completing the full investigation to determine whether or not any company protocols were violated by Holmes and Robach’s romance. Additional reports regarding affairs Holmes may have had during his time at “GMA”, including one with an intern, are being investigated, sources at the network told TMZ.

As “GMA3” heads into its third week without co-anchors Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes, questions swirl about their future and that of the show. Will they be fired? Will ABC bring the scandal-ridden co-hosts back after the revelation of their romantic relationship while both are still married to others? Have the reports of Holmes’ previous two affairs with “GMA” colleagues made him too toxic for a Disney-owned company?
TV veterans say that ABC executives have no easy answers in a situation like this. “Are you going to tell them to break up? Or are you saying they can come back on the air together?” former ABC Daytime exec Brian Frons told TheWrap. “Or do you separate them and have them sit in the corner for a year while they burn off their contracts? It’s just a mess.”

The timetable for Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes‘ potential return to GMA3 has gotten a little clearer: The co-anchors will not return to their ABC news program until after an internal investigation of their behind-the-scenes relationship has been completed.

Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes will remain off the air at GMA for the foreseeable future.
The pair are currently the subject of an internal investigation regarding an alleged affair.
They were both removed from the series earlier this month, and it has been reported they will not be back until the conclusion of the internal investigation.
Details about the pair's future on the morning show were shared by way of an internal memo from ABC News president Kim Godwin, obtained by E! News.
“I understand that the continuing coverage can be distracting from the incredibly important work our team does here at ABC News.”
She added, “It is my hope that we will continue to focus our energy on what we do best, and I want all of you to know how immensely proud I am of your hard work and professionalism.”
For now, the series will use a rotation of anchors.

Update: Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes remain off the air as the network conducts an internal review of the situation following the revelation of a romantic relationship between the two news figures.
ABC News President Kim Godwin confirmed in a memo the network was conducting an internal review as they remain off the air, according to a source. CNN first reported on the memo.
Last week, Godwin told staffers that the relationship between the two anchors had become an “internal and external distraction” in deciding to pull them off the air.
Godwin said on the staff call last week that “I want to say that while the relationship is not a violation of company policy, I really have taken the last few days to think about and work through what I think is best for the ABC News organization.”
But later in the week, Semafor reported that an internal review was being conducted.

Gayle King shared her thoughts on the “Good Morning America” scandal that caused ABC to temporarily pull anchors Amy Robach and Tj Holmes off the air following reports of their romantic relationship.
“It’s very interesting what’s happening over there,” the CBS Mornings” co-host said of the rival morning show on a Thursday episode of “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.”
“It’s just gotten very messy and very sloppy. I do think that,” she continued. “You know, because in the beginning I actually thought, ‘Good on ‘Good Morning America,’ they’re not taking them off the air, they’re two consenting adults.'”

Viewership of “GMA3: What You Need to Know” jumped by around 11 last week when chatter began swirling about an affair between anchors Amy Robach and Tj Holmes. But once Monday’s broadcast rolled around — sans Robach and Holmes, as ABC News decided to bench the pair — numbers held steady before falling back to their usual range.
Between Nov. 28 and Nov. 30, the 1 p.m. timeslot of the “Good Morning America” companion afternoon strip was averaging 1.63 million total viewers, according to Nielsen. That was before the Daily Mail reported, on the evening of Nov. 30, that Robach and Holmes were romantically linked. The report quickly went viral on social media with additional speculation about the pair’s relationship and their respective marriages circulating in the tabloids.

Two-thirds of “GMA3’s” anchors, T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach, remain sidelined several days after being benched over their extramarital relationship. The longer this goes on, the less likely it feels that the co-hosts and couple will return to the 1 p.m. ABC News program, which marries the powerful “Good Morning America” branding with descriptive subtitle “What You Need to Know.”
Both separated from their spouses (Holmes is married to attorney Marilee Fiebig; Robach is married to actor and “Melrose Place” star Andrew Shue), Holmes and Robach are “probably” still being paid right now, two employment lawyers independently told IndieWire for this story. Meanwhile, ABC and “GMA3” producers are likely reviewing their contracts and observing public reaction. The show’s third co-host, Jennifer Ashton, is probably just trying to keep everyone’s pulse rate and blood pressure under control; good thing she’s a doctor.

GMA3 hosts T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach have been taken off the air indefinitely as ABC executives deal with “internal confusion” after rumors of the anchors’ romance circulated last week. News of the affair reportedly resulted in a boost in ratings.
Holmes and Robach seem to have begun a relationship while both being married. Robach has been married to actor Andrew Shue since 2010 and Holmes married lawyer Marilee Fiebig the same year.
ABC News’ President Kim Goodwin said the couple did not violate company policy but has deemed the romance a “distraction.”

Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes are still on the “GMA3” sidelines. Based on the “Good Morning America” offshoot’s TV ratings with the duo — and with third wheel (now in several ways) Jennifer Ashton — ABC News might not be in a huge rush to bring them back.
“GMA3” is the lowest-rated of the “GMA”-branded hours, according to Nielsen data, and is lower rated than any hour of NBC’s “Today” show and CBS morning show “CBS This Morning.”
This quarter-to-date, “GMA3” is averaging 1.566 million total viewers per day, with 314,000 of them between the ages of 25-54, which is the key demographic for news programming. The two morning hours of “Good Morning America” average more than twice that: 3.178 million overall viewers, 732,000 from the demo.
“Today” from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. does better than regular “GMA” in the key news demo, but not overall. “CBS This Morning” ranks third of three.
