TJ Holmes settles divorce with ex-wife Marilee Fiebig - nearly a year after his affair with GMA co-a

TJ Holmes has settled his divorce with ex-wife Marilee Fiebig almost a year after his affair with former co-star Amy Robach was exposed by DailyMail.com. 

The scandalous affair saw both Holmes, 46, and Robach, 50, lose their Good Morning America hosting spots, with the couple remaining together since. 

In court records first reported by US Magazine, paperwork finalizing the split was submitted on October 11, and Holmes and Fiebig are next scheduled to appear in court on January 9. 

The couple share a 10-year-old daughter Sabine, but the two have been in the process of ending their marriage since Holmes filed for divorce in December 2022 after his extramarital affair came to light.

DailyMail.com revealed Holmes and Robach's friendly relationship evolved into a full blown secret romance off-screen in November 2022. The two are pictured having flirty post-filming drinks at a New York City bar on November 10 

The former Good Morning America co-hosts then spent a weekend shacked up in a cozy cottage in the Shawangunk Mountain region, checking out of their rental on November 13. Holmes was seen giving his lover a playful squeeze from behind as she packed up the car 

Fiebig, an immigration attorney, and Holmes were married for almost 13 years before the affair was revealed. 

The couple were reportedly separated at the time, but Fiebig was said to have been 'blindsided' by the off-screen fling.

Robach's husband, former Melrose Place actor Andrew Shue, also reportedly separated with the presenter in August 2022, just weeks before the romance was exposed. 

Holmes and Robach had been hosting Good Morning America for two years before their affair became public, and the duo won fans over with their on-camera chemistry. 

The stars were often caught giggling to one another, partaking in sarcastic banter, and engaging in playful touches on the air - and their antics quickly turned them into one of ABC's most popular hosting teams. 

But in November 2022, DailyMail.com uncovered their secret love affair, showing the two enjoying steamy late-night rendezvous, post-filming date nights and slipping in and out of each other's apartments.  

Both presenters had been married to their respective spouses for over a decade at the time, and an inside source told DailyMail.com the unsuspecting couples were known to enjoy time together. 

'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,' they said. 

As recently as March 2022, the unwitting spouses were seen with the two co-hosts on Robach's Instagram, where Holmes had his arm casually draped across her husband Andrew Shue's shoulder as part of Robach's 'half marathon posse.'

In June this year, Robach also shared photos of the two co-hosts covering the Queen's Diamond Jubilee for GMA together in London, where their romance is believed to have first blossomed

In the divorce documents seen this week, a certificate of dissolution has been processed in New York County Supreme Court, however a settlement and divorce judgement are still pending. 

Insiders said that Holmes and Robach's dalliance evolved in June 2022, if not before, when they were 'in London together filming the Queen's Diamond Jubilee for ABC and staff were buzzing about the intimacy between them.'

The duo had anchored GMA 3 since 2020, with many remarking on their close - but seemingly platonic - relationship on-screen. 

But their fling emerged after they were seen enjoying flirty post-filming sessions at a New York City Bar, spending time alone in each others ritzy Manhattan apartments, and frolicking to a secluded upstate New York cottage for a weekend getaway. 

The two co-anchors, whose on-screen chemistry captivated audiences after they joined GMA's third hour in 2020, can be seen laughing and cozying up to each other at the bar in November 2022 after a morning of filming 

After a flirty rendezvous at O'Donoghue's Irish bar in Times Square, Holmes and Robach, who were both married at the time, were later seen walking out of the pub separately, keeping a safe 20 feet apart as they waited for their ride outside 

In one instance, on November 10, 2022, Robach and Holmes finished recording their daily segment at ABC Studios before they were spotted deep in conversation in a cozy corner of O'Donogue's Irish Bar in Times Square. 

An eyewitness told DailyMail.com: 'They were totally into each other. She was giggling at whatever he was saying, and they were looking at each other's phones. At one point she was kind of dancing in her chair to the music and laughing so hard she practically fell into his lap.' 

Their affair sent shockwaves through the morning television roster, leading ABC News to officially part ways with the duo in January 2023. 

'After several productive conversations with Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes, about different options, we all agreed it’s best for everyone that they move on from ABC News,' an ABC News spokesperson said at the time. 

'We recognize their talent and commitment over the years and are thankful for their contributions.'

Before they were officially dismissed, both Holmes and Robach had been temporarily taken off air while an internal investigation was carried out. 

Robach and Holmes, both avid runners and fitness lovers, ran the New York City Marathon together in November 2022 - which the 49-year-old mom-of-two had previously run with her husband 

The couple recently came back into the spotlight when they returned to social media for the first time since the news broke of their affair - sharing the same image of their legs

A week after their secret romance came to light, Robach and Holmes doubled down on their affair and were reportedly committed to 'growing their relationship.' 

Despite backlash to their extramarital relationship, the couple have seemingly remained together since. 

Nine months after their liaison was first reported, the fitness fanatics returned to social media by sharing the same pic together of their feet while seemingly out on a run.
