Former ABC News anchors Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes were seen enjoying a hand-in-hand seaside stroll ahead of the launch of their podcast, suggesting their relationship is waxing stronger.
In a bombshell revelation on their podcast, Robach recounted the time when she thought Holmes had committed suicide following their headlining ousting from "Good Morning America" after it was revealed that they were romantically involved.
The pair recently made their first public appearance as a couple amid reports that their exes are now dating each other.
Amy Robach And T.J. Holmes Loved Up For Sunny Stroll
As seen in photos shared by TMZ, the seasoned journalists appeared to be in good spirits as they held each other's hands while laughing and engaging in animated conversations as they strolled along the beach.
In a particular snap, Robach was seen holding on to Holmes' hands with one of her hands while she used the other to provide shade for her eyes from the sun. In another photo, they simply held on to each other and casually strolled through a sunny Santa Monica street, heading towards the famous pier.
She looked elegant in an off-white sweatshirt and blue denim pants, completing the look with brown cowgirl boots and a belt. Holmes wore jean trousers and a pink top with sneakers but took a cue from his girlfriend's mistake as he opted for black sunglasses to protect his eyes.

Amy Robach And T.J. Holmes Launched A New Podcast
The sighting came days before the couple announced their new podcast project, "Amy & T.J.," which has since revealed a harrowing incident in their relationship just a few episodes in.
Robach recounted the final days of their time at ABC after they were fired for being romantically involved and revealed she was particularly scared Holmes had taken his life after sending her a series of disturbing texts.
She noted that she was afraid as the texts were in past tense, with Holmes saying she "was" the love of his life. Disturbed, she ran over to check on him at his place with her father in company, where they saw him lying helplessly on his bed. She initially thought he was dead but it turned out that he was unconscious and they were able to wake him up.
Holmes said he couldn't recall much of the ordeal, but he remembered "pounding vodka" and taking "weed edibles," which left him in that state.
Robach also shared that the days following their ABC scandal were a difficult one for her, calling it the "year from hell" and revealing she "wanted to die" at some point.
Their Exes Are Dating After Bonding Over Trauma
It follows recent speculation surrounding the love lives of their exes after reports surfaced indicating that their former partners, Andrew Shue, and Marilee Fiebig, have found solace in each other's company.
According to Page Six, multiple sources shared that Shue and Fiebig are dating and have been together for six months after they bonded over their ex-partners' traumatic cheating experiences.
"It turned into something else, and they're connected over their values. It's bigger than the affair now," a source told the news outlet.
The publication noted that the source said the hurt is over for them, and they have "moved on," as another source shared that "they're not heartbroken and sad," adding, "Everyone has moved on."
Amy Robach And T.J. Holmes Address Cheating Allegations
In response to the rumors suggesting they were unfaithful to their former partners, Robach and Holmes came forward on their podcast to deny the allegations.
At the time, the axed "GMA3" hosts faced increased scrutiny as reports emerged about their romantic involvement, but the duo insisted that they did not cheat on their respective partners with each other as their relationship was "outed" in November 2022.
"[We] lost the jobs we love because we love each other," Holmes said in the first episode of their "Amy & T.J." podcast. "To be clear, we were outed as being in a relationship, but everyone else thought we were being outed as adulterers — being outed as cheating on our spouses — and it wasn't the case."
However, sources told Page Six that their affair at the time was a major factor in their respective divorces, especially for Holmes, who was still "very much together" with Fiebig as of August that year.
