Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes have yet to return to GMA3: What You Need to Know amid their alleged affair.
The co-hosts are currently off air after photos of their apparent romance were published on Wednesday, November 30. Though they finished up the week—and even alluded to the drama during the December 2 broadcast—they did not appear on the show the following Monday.
"It's too bad it's Friday. It's been a great week," Holmes, 45, told Robach, 49, during their last episode together, seemingly poking fun at the scandal. "I just want this one to keep going and going and going."
"Speak for yourself," Robach replied, before adding, "I am very excited about the weekend—and I'm sure everyone else is too. We all love our Fridays around here. Some of us do, at least."
On December 5, Robach and Holmes were quietly replaced by Stephanie Ramos and Gio Benitez, with Ramos explaining to viewers the pair "have the day off."
The journalists are both married, Robach to Melrose Place star Andrew Shue, 55, and Holmes to attorney Marilee Fiebig.
Robach and Shue wed in 2010 following her divorce from Tim McIntosh, the father of her two teenage daughters, Ava and Annie. She is also a stepmom to Shue's three boys, Nate, Aidan and Wyatt.
Holmes and Fiebig also wed in 2010, and they share a daughter, Sabine. In addition, the reporter has two other children, Brianna and Jaiden, with ex-wife Amy Ferson.
In a resurfaced interview from October 2021, Holmes called Robach and Shue his "favorite people on the planet." The Arkansas native spoke with the couple last year about their children's book, Better Together, a story about the blending of two families.
"It's a love story like none other," Holmes said. "You're about to hear about it, folks. This is the part of the show, uh, really—we joke, we laugh and we have a good time here, but these are absolutely two of my favorite people on the planet. Of course, you all know Amy Robach and her husband here, Andrew Shue, who is a dear, dear friend as well."
He added that Roach and Shue's romance "wasn't always easy" because they are "both divorced" but said the family "came together."
On Monday, ABC News President Kim Godwin sent a memo to network employees noting Robach and Holmes will "remain off-air pending the completion of an internal review," CNN reported.
"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," Godwin reportedly wrote.
On December 7, Robach was spotted outside of her NYC apartment with her dog and told a Daily Mail reporter that "it's kind of over now." It is not clear what she was referring to.
