GMA hosts Robin Roberts & George Stephanopoulos ‘are furious’ about TJ Holmes & Amy Robach’s ‘messy’ romance scandal
GOOD Morning America's Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos are "furious" with co-hosts TJ Holmes and Amy Robach's steamy romance scandal, The U.S. Sun has learned.
A source close to GMA production exclusively told The U.S. Sun that lead anchors George and Robin took great pride in their team's reputation for demonstrating strong family values and happy marriages- until it all came crashing down today.
As first reported by the Daily Mail, GMA correspondents Amy, 49, and TJ, 45, were allegedly involved in an extramarital affair, and were spotted looking very cozy on dates and even during a romantic weekend getaway. (The stars are apparently still married to other people, but a source told the outlet that both couples are separating.)
The jaw-dropping news does not sit well with the main hosts, according to the insider, who claimed the veteran anchors are "furious" about the scandal.
"George and Robin do not like this. This is very messy," The source explained, adding that the pair once prided themselves on not having a scandal like Today suffered in 2017.
"They prided themselves on not having a sex scandal, like Today once did with Matt Lauer.

"They were so proud all their hosts were decent, married and committed people."
The source said that the news is more painful to Robin, who has an extremely close bond with Amy.
"Amy and Robin are really close.
"Robin convinced Amy to get what would end up being a lifesaving mammogram on live TV. Their bond is very strong."

The source added: "Robin is an idealist. She is the boss. When something goes off the rails she jumps in and tells people to tidy the mess up.
"And I'm not so sure there's a way to tidy this one up. This is all very dirty for a morning show."
Robin and George are the lead anchors for the top-rated morning show, along with co-host Michael Strahan.
A SORDID 'AFFAIR'
Amy and TJ were spotted enjoying what looked to be a series of PDA-filled "dates" and even a weekend getaway together this month.
In pictures obtained by the Daily Mail, the pair looked intimate while having a drink at a bar in New York City on November 10.
They were also caught apparently spending time together at each other's apartments in Manhattan.
The pair - who began anchoring GMA 3 in together in 2020 - reportedly headed to upstate New York on November 11 for a weekend getaway at a cottage two weeks before Thanksgiving.
While the presenters are legally married, a source told the outlet that they are in process of separating from their partners.
TJ and Amy both abruptly deleted their social media pages on Tuesday after the shocking rumors emerged.
An insider told Daily Mail: "Everyone knows that Amy and T.J. have been close friends for a long time now, running together and even socializing as a foursome with each other's spouses."
In March, Amy shared a photo of TJ with his arm around her husband Andrew Shue's shoulder during a day of training for the New York half marathon.
The insider claimed Amy and TJ's alleged affair started in June, if not sooner.
They claimed it was "when they were in London together filming the Queen's Diamond Jubilee for ABC and staff were all over each other and staff were buzzing about the intimacy between them."
The U.S. Sun has contacted representatives for GMA for comment and has not heard back.
DROPPING 'CLUES'
Amy seemed to slip and reveal her intimate relationship with TJ on live TV during GMA's November 16 show.
During a segment featuring Softies robes, the presenter was admiring the texture and let slip: “I wish TJ was here. He loves his robes.”
She then seemed to catch herself and backtracked: “He walks around the hallways with them.”
TJ married his wife, attorney Marilee Fiebig, 44, in 2010.
He has two children - Brianna and Jaiden - with his ex-wife Amy Feron, and a daughter, Sabine, with his wife Marilee.
