According to the DailyMail report revealing Robach's NewsNation gig, she was meant to host her own show. The offer noticeably didn't include Robach's former co-host and new partner, T.J Holmes.

Sources told the news outlet that the NewsNation originally wanted both Holmes and Robach as co-anchors for the new show. However, they later terminated that plan and decided to move forward with just Robach, deciding her partner had no place in the studio.

Robach's new show was tentatively titled "Robach & Co" and meant to be a "weekly talk/sit-down with different newsmakers and human interest stories around the world." It was reportedly meant to premiere in January 2024, a year after her exit from ABC News with Holmes.
