What began as one of morning television’s most talked-about scandals has now produced an unexpected love story. Marilee Fiebig, T.J. Holmes’ former wife, and Andrew Shue, Amy Robach’s former husband, have announced their engagement. Speaking with People after the news broke, Shue reflected on their unusual path, saying, “I don’t know how it happened, but there’s a happy ending.” Here’s how the intertwined relationships unfolded.
Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes married other people in the same year
The story traces back to 2010, when Robach and Shue, as well as Holmes and Fiebig, each began marriages that would eventually end in divorce. Robach met Shue at a book party in 2009 and married him the following year. Holmes and Fiebig, who met in 2009, wed in March 2010. For years, both relationships appeared to be going smoothly—until events in 2020 changed everything.
In 2020, Robach and Holmes became co-hosts of GMA3: What You Need to Know. Their professional partnership also connected their personal lives, and the two married couples were known to socialize and go on double dates. At the time, there was no public indication that anything was wrong.

The scandal that shook up morning TV
That changed in November 2022, when The Daily Mail published photographs of Robach and Holmes appearing romantically close while they were still married to other people. The revelation triggered immediate consequences. ABC removed the co-hosts from the air the next month, and Holmes filed for divorce from Fiebig in December. Both Holmes and Robach later maintained that they had already separated from their spouses when their relationship began. Robach was reportedly separated from Shue in August 2022, although their divorce was not filed until after the scandal became public.
Robach and Holmes both departed ABC in January 2023 after contract negotiations with the network fell apart. As they continued their relationship and worked through their respective divorces, Robach and Shue finalized their split in March 2023. Holmes and Fiebig completed their divorce in October of that year.
How everyone moved on
The affair’s public fallout affected everyone involved, but it also created an unlikely bond between the former spouses. While Robach and Holmes remained together, Shue and Fiebig developed a quiet friendship. Shue later told People that they were simply two people who needed support at the same time.
The four continued to share a connection even after the divorces were settled. Robach and Holmes launched their iHeartRadio podcast, Amy & T.J., on December 5, 2023. That same day, Page Six reported that Shue and Fiebig had been dating for roughly six months. By February 2025, reports indicated that the pair had moved in together.
Later in 2025, Robach and Holmes revealed their engagement on their podcast and began preparing for their wedding. They married in Arkansas in September 2026, with the news becoming public in mid-October. About a week later, Shue and Fiebig announced that they, too, were engaged—bringing a remarkable twist to the story of the two former couples.
