Were TJ Holmes and Marilee Fiebig trying to reconcile? TV host's wife 'blindsided' by Amy Robach affair
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: TJ Holmes' alleged romantic affair with 'GMA3' host Amy Robach has left his wife Marilee Fiebig "devastated" and feeling "blindsided," a source has revealed. The launch of TV has caused controversy, with many claiming that the two have been "happily in love" since March, unbeknownst to their spouses. Although both have been living separately from their respective spouses for some time, they have attracted both public curiosity and ridicule because they usually co-host the show after the news broke.
Marilee Fiebig, a lawyer, and TJ Holmes, 45, have been married for 12 years. They reportedly have been living apart for six months. They had been trying to work things out in the interim, but after news of the affair with Robach, 49, leaked, it does not look like it's going that way.
