“I thought I was special”: Another Good Morning America Staffer Claims T. J. Holmes Had an Affair With Her While Still Married, Reportedly Hooked Up in His Office Multiple Times
Reports of Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes, news anchors for GMA3 and ABC News, officially leaving the network have been making the rounds for the past few months. After it was reported that the news anchors had a personal relationship, they turned into tabloid fodder in the latter part of last year. Later the couple eventually separated from their respective spouses.
Reportedly claimed by numerous media outlets, Holmes, now the former co-host of GMA3 had been involved in multiple relationships with other women at his place of work, including Natasha Singh, who was once the show’s producer.
Also, according to several media outlets, prior to marrying Marilee Fiebig, Holmes was said to have dated three other network employees while working there.
Now, recently, it has been reported by The Cut that a fourth person, who worked for ABC earlier, has admitted to having an affair with the former Good Morning America host.
Fourth ABC staffer admits to having an affair with T.J. Holmes
The woman, who is anonymously known as Sascha, alleged that T.J. Holmes considered her nothing less than a “disposable object.” She went so far as to describe how GMA’s top executives reportedly took advantage of their young female coworkers while they put them in long, solitary hours.
This fourth worker reportedly claimed in an interview with The Cut that they first became romantically involved in 2014 while they were both sharing overnight shifts. During that time, he was 38 and she was 27.
She continued by saying that the former GMA3 host, who is now 45 years old, began acting strangely and flirtatiously after asking her for assistance setting up his Instagram account. He even allegedly sent an email saying,
“I’m learning a lot about you. I might actually like you.”
She explained how working late nights had left her feeling extremely “exhausted and lonely,” and that she believed only her former colleague, Holmes could relate to this.
A short while later, he reportedly sent her the information for a hotel nearby the network’s Upper West Side headquarters. He was reportedly sitting on the bed when she entered. Sascha claimed that because of ABC’s “rampant culture of s*x” and the fact that “it was a pretty scandalous place,” the couple’s first encounters in hotel rooms and Holmes’ locked office didn’t seem unusual.
Sascha was ‘heartbroken’ and felt like a ‘throwaway object’
Holmes’ GMA3 co-host, Amy Robach was among the four women that T.J. Holmes is said to have had alleged affairs with, while still married to the mother of his 10-year-old daughter. Now new to the list is Sascha, who disclosed how Holmes allegedly exploited her “exhaustion and loneliness” as a result of work pressure.
The Cut also quoted her as saying, “I thought I was special,” and that she believed Holmes was “the only person in the building who took me seriously.”
She later eventually understood, that she was merely a “part of a pattern,” and he later treated her like a “throwaway object.”
Holmes and Robach are both accomplished American journalists. Before joining ABC, Holmes reportedly held positions at CNN, BET, and MSNBC, while Robach had previously worked for NBC News and MSNBC.
