T.J. Holmes was taken to the hospital via an ambulance after suffering an injury while taking part in the Chicago Marathon.
Holmes, 47, undertook the running event alongside Amy Robach on Sunday, October 13, before Robach, 51, shared via social media that her partner had been injured. “Mile 21 and the Achilles gave out,” Robach wrote via Instagram Stories over a photo of Holmes’ legs strapped to a stretcher inside an ambulance.
Three hours later, Holmes shared an update of his own via Instagram, posting a photo of himself looking exhausted on the stretcher and covered at the waist with a blanket. A second snap in his Instagram carousel showed his legs strapped in, while an additional video, seemingly filmed by Robach, showed Holmes listening to instructions provided by an emergency officer who was caring for him.
“So, this happened. Full story to come …. 😢#DNF #chicagomarathon,” Holmes captioned his post.
Former GMA3 cohosts Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes’ reported romance made headlines in November 2022 when the TV personalities — both married to other people — were photographed getting cozy on various outings throughout the month. The pictures, first published by the Daily Mail, showed the pair holding hands in a car, laughing at a […]
Less than one hour prior to Robach’s post, the reporter had shared a smiling selfie of her and Holmes running alongside a crowd of participants in the 26.2-mile race.
The former Good Morning America co-anchors, who revealed earlier this month that they are living together “full time,” share a love of running, competing in the New York City Half Marathon together in March after first taking part in the event together as work colleagues in November 2022.
Robach had previously been married to Andrew Shue, whom she reportedly separated from in August 2022. She filed to divorce Shue in December that year.
For Holmes’ part, he had been married to attorney Marilee Fiebig before reportedly separating from her that same month. The pair also filed for divorce in December.
During the June 12 episode of Holmes and Robach’s “Amy & T.J.” podcast, Robach revealed that some of their GMA coworkers severed ties with the couple after details of their romance went public.
Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes initially connected after they were tapped to headline GMA3: What You Need to Know in 2020. “I had done segments over the years with Dr. [Jennifer] Ashton, who I would always seek out to ask for her expertise. We were collaborating almost every day before being on TV together,” Holmes […]
“So we went back to work for two days after that tabloid that shall not be named released those photos,” Robach said during the podcast. “As we pointed out, just discovering us in a private relationship. They did not catch us cheating, that was not what happened. But when we came back for those two days, we were surrounded with support. My dressing room was full of all of our colleagues.”
Holmes interjected during the episode that some of their coworkers’ sentiments were “fake” and absolute “B.S.” Robach then shared that after she and Holmes were let go from their jobs, a lot of their colleagues also disappeared from their lives.
“But once it was clear that we weren’t coming back, I never heard from most people again,” Robach admitted.
