ABC News President Kim Goodwinshared the network’s decisionwith staff that morning. “During the routine 9 a.m. editorial call, Kim Godwin said she wanted to address the internal and external distraction between two colleagues,” a source told PEOPLE last year.
“This wasn’t a special call and it happens every day and she took that time to address the situation to the staff,” the source continued. “She said even though this isn’t a violation of policy, she took time to think about it and wanted to work through what was best and for now, they’ve decided to take T.J. and Amy off the air while they figure things out.”
The two first sparked romance rumors on Nov. 30, 2022, after photos surfaced of them holding hands in a car during a vacation in upstate New York andcozying up at a barin New York City. At the time, Robach was still married to actorAndrew Shuewhile Holmes was married toMarilee Fiebig.
Just hours after the photos were released, the journalists promptlyshut down their respective Instagram accounts.

“This was two consenting adults who were each separated. They both broke up with their spouses in August within weeks of each other,” the insider added. “The relationship didn’t start until after that.”
“She’s got nothing to hide,” the source continued of Robach. “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.”
