Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes have taken the next step toward the altar. The former GMA3 co-anchors have obtained a marriage license nearly one year after announcing their engagement, Page Six confirmed. TMZ first reported that Robach, 53, and Holmes, 49, applied for the license on September 18 in Washington County, Arkansas.
The couple's relationship has been one of the most scandalous media stories of the decade. Their months-long workplace romance was revealed in November 2022, when both were married to other people — Robach to actor Andrew Shue and Holmes to attorney Marilee Fiebig. Photographs of the co-anchors looking intimate off-camera triggered a tabloid frenzy and an internal investigation at ABC.
The bombshell affair led to the pair's exit from the network in January 2023. A network spokesperson told Page Six at the time that it was best for everyone that the co-hosts-turned-lovers move on from the network. The departures were seen as a stunning fall for two rising stars of morning television, both of whom had been groomed for bigger roles at ABC News.
In a twist that has kept gossip columns busy, Shue and Fiebig have since begun dating each other. The two scorned exes were photographed together multiple times and their relationship became public in late 2023, turning the quadrangle into one of the strangest celebrity stories of recent years.
Robach and Holmes continued their relationship following their respective oustings and have worked to rebuild their public image as a couple. They launched a joint podcast, Amy and T.J., where they have spoken candidly about the scandal, their mental health struggles, and their plans for the future. They announced their engagement on the podcast in October 2025, with Robach telling listeners they had been engaged for about a month.
Holmes said at the time that they wanted to share the news themselves before anyone else could, adding that they had learned that lesson in the past about their relationship. The former CNN correspondent also noted that his fiancee had been publicly wearing her engagement ring in crowds of tens of thousands of people, and nobody said a word.
A wedding date has not been announced, but the marriage license filing suggests the couple is moving quickly toward a ceremony. Friends of the pair say they have been scouting venues and that the wedding is expected to be an intimate affair. The license filing caps a remarkable turnaround for a couple whose careers imploded in the span of weeks. Where the scandal once threatened to define them, Robach and Holmes have spent the past three years rebuilding on their own terms and, increasingly, on their own platform.
