Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes’ Exes Get Engaged: A Timeline of Events
One of morning TV’s biggest scandals ended in a marriage between Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes. Now, their exes have found love with each other. Marilee Fiebig, Holmes’ ex, and Andrew Shue, Robach’s former love, have announced their engagement. Shue opened up to People about the odd twist of fate, saying, “I don’t know how it happened, but there’s a happy ending,” shortly after announcing the engagement. Let’s take a look back at how the couples got where they are today.
Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes married other people in the same year
In 2010, there were two different weddings that would eventually lead to divorce. Robach married Shue that year after meeting him at a book party the year prior. Holmes and Fiebig met in 2009 and wed in March 2010. The whirlwind romances seemed to be swimming along just fine until 2020.
That year, Robach and Holmes were paired together as hosts of GMA3: What You Need to Know. They combined their social circles, with the married couples even spending time together on double dates. No one seemed to know anything was amiss until a couple of years later.
The scandal that shook up morning TV
In November 2022, Holmes and Robach’s affair became public fodder. The Daily Mail published photos of the co-hosts looking very cozy while they were both married to other people. The fallout was swift, with ABC pulling them from the air the following month. In December, Holmes filed for divorce from Fiebig, though he and Robach maintained they were already separated from their spouses when their romance began. Robach allegedly separated from Shue in August 2022, though paperwork was not filed until the scandal broke.
In January 2023, Robach and Holmes both left ABC when negotiations with the network broke down. They remained a united front during that time as they both navigated their divorces. Robach and Shue finalized their split in March 2023. Holmes and Fiebig settled their divorce in October 2023.
How everyone moved on
The scandal led to a ton of fallout for all parties involved. While Holmes and Robach stuck together, their exes formed an unlikely friendship. Shue and Fiebig quietly became friends during that time. Shue later told People they were simply two people who needed a friend at the same time.
Despite the spousal swap, the couples’ lives continued to intersect. 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 about six months. In February 2025, reports surfaced that Shue and Fiebig had moved in together.
Later that same year, Robach and Holmes announced their engagement on their podcast. They moved quickly to plan their wedding and tied the knot in September 2026 in Arkansas. The news became public in mid-October, with Shue and Fiebig sharing that they were engaged about a week later.
