According to a new report, Amy Robach just can’t believe the man she cheated on with doesn’t have a strong moral compass.
For those unfamiliar with this story, a quick refresher:
Robach co-hosts GMA3 (a spinoff of the wildly popular ABC morning show) with TJ Holmes.
At the end of November, photos came out of journalists canoodling in upstate New York – despite the fact that the two have been married for years.
Shortly after the racy photo went viral, Holmes and Robach were pulled off the air by executives while they conducted an internal investigation.
Then, they were fired.
Neither Robach nor Holmes (who recently filed for divorce from his wife, Marilee Fiebig) have commented publicly on their relationship or the pink slip.
But a disturbing article published by The Daily Mail just a few days ago reportedly has Robach reeling.
As previously explained on this website, Holmes came out to Fiebig on several occasions.
In 2015, he supposedly started sleeping with ABC News coordinator Jasmin Pettaway … who was only 24 years old, while Holmes was 37.
At the very least, insiders say Holmes and Pettay had been hooking up in the former’s office, just hours before the show aired.
“They had sex and I knew he was confused about what that meant,” wrote The Daily Mail, adding that the relationship eventually “broke off”.
And it doesn’t fit very well either.
Overall, the Daily Mail source has very some good words to say about the anchor for a long time.
“He was a predator who took advantage of his position, and he was reckless,” the man told the Daily Mail.
“This is Jasmin’s first real project on television, and it’s a big deal for her. She’s looking for a mentor, and she’s reaching out to a few people.
“TJ is a very responsive person, but he really abused his position of trust.”
YIKEShuh?
The Sun now reports that Robach had the same basic reaction upon learning of his former lover’s sexual romps, while he also took aback about losing his job as a result of that shagging.
“They certainly didn’t think their relationship would cause such a big upheaval — outside of their own marriages,” an insider told this outlet.
“He didn’t expect this to become a scandal.”
The source added that while Holmes and Robach’s attorneys are in contact with ABC as they pursue potential exits, the cases are being handled separately by their respective teams.
Perhaps most troubling for Robach, The Sun claims, is that he was unaware of the “extent” of Holmes’ past dalliances.
To be clear, he and Holmes are still working at ABC… they just got taken off the air.
“They haven’t stopped, but I don’t expect TJ to be active again,” an insider told Page Six last week, noting that both sides have lawyers in the middle of negotiations and concluding:
“They want Amy to stay and be a part of it, but not in” GMA3.
