Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes Return to TV on ‘Name That Tune’

The newlyweds played against each other on the game show, with Holmes competing for the Chloe and Maude Foundation, an educational charity, and Robach seeking funds for the 5 Under 40 Foundation, which supports breast cancer causes. The appearance put the former broadcast hosts back on television, this time as contestants rather than presenters.

During the Big-a-Note round, both had $3,000 as they tried to name popular wedding songs. They recognized Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” but could not identify the title. After the bandleader, Robin Thicke, played the song in full, Holmes pulled Robach into a dance. Host Jane Krakowski remarked, “Romance is in the air.”

Robach and Holmes co-hosted ABC’s “GMA3: What You Need to Know” with Dr. Jennifer Ashton. Robach joined ABC in 2012 and Holmes in 2014. Their relationship drew public scrutiny after photographs showed them spending time together outside work. At the time, Robach was married to actor Andrew Shue and Holmes to attorney Marilee Fiebig; reports said both couples had already separated and were planning divorces.

ABC took the hosts off air while conducting an internal review. Their departure was confirmed in January 2023. An ABC spokesman said the parties had held “several productive conversations” and agreed it was best for Robach and Holmes to “move on from ABC News.” After leaving the network, the pair launched the podcast “Amy & T.J.” and continued working together.
