If you thought the messy affair between GMA 3 anchors TJ Holmes and Amy Robach would cease to be fodder for conversation after the network benched them from their positions earlier this week, THINK AGAIN.

During Thursdayโs appearance on Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen brought up the ordeal to 2022 Root 100 Honoree Gayle King to get her perspective on the matter.
โI mean, I look at the situation and I do say itโs very interesting whatโs happening over there,โ King said, according to ET. โItโs just gotten very messy and very sloppy. I do think that. You know, because in the beginning I actually thought... listen, good on Good Morning America. Theyโre saying that theyโre not taking them off the air, two consenting adults. But then the more you read, itโs just very messy.โ
She continued, โTo me, itโs a sad situation because youโve got kids involved, youโve got families involved and I keep thinking about that. Iโm very concerned about that.โ
Fellow news anchor Don Lemon also shared his thoughts on the matter, explaining to ET that he knows TJ and has โnothing but love for him.โ
โI know T.J., I worked with T.J. at CNN, so I have nothing but love for him and I hope that heโs OK,โ Lemon said. โI donโt know about their situation, Iโm not privy enough, but I just like to offer people love and support and I hope that theyโre OK and hope that they continue to prosper.โ
As previously reported by The Root, on Monday, ABC News President Kim Godwin held an editorial call where she informed employees that TJ Holmes and Amy Robach would be โbenched from hosting GMA 3 while the news division weighs the effect their recent disclosure of a romantic relationship might have on the program and the company.โ This move reportedly comes despite the fact that neither Holmes nor Robach violated company policy but the organization still โwanted to do whatโs bestโ for the company.
