The TV news personality was engulfed in multiple affairs with co-workers.

He reportedly had a years-long affair with a ‘GMA’ executive producer prior to his relationship with Robach.

On Sunday, we reported on Robach and Holmes getting confronted about the affair by another ‘GMA’ co-anchor.

It must be noted, Holmes was married to Fiebig while Robach was married to Andrew Schune before leaving him in August. The former couple have been separated for four months, but were reportedly working things out.

The co-workers were spotted “canoodling” at bars near ABC News in May.

When Roberts confronted them about a romance, Holmes reportedly denied it. He was allegedly so concerned about the rumors hurting his career with ABC that he went to the higher-ups and squashed them himself.

“He was a correspondent at the time, and he didn’t want Robin thinking that about him. He went to [ABC brass] and got ahead of it to dismiss it because it wasn’t true,” they said.

An additional source told the publication that Holmes went straight to former ‘GMA’ executive producer Michael Corn, because “it was absolutely not true, and it freaked them out. Amy and T.J.’s friendship took a hit when the rumors started.”

Here’s the crazy twist.

Holmes, Fiebig, Robach and Shune were reportedly close and would go on double dates.
