In a recent episode of their Amy & T.J. podcast, T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach, former GMA3 co-anchors, shared invaluable advice for couples, cautioning against recording their disagreements. The dynamic duo, known for their candid discussions, addressed a particularly raw podcast episode where they openly navigated through their relationship challenges.
The emotionally charged episode, released on Tuesday, caught both Robach, 50, and iHeart Radio producers by surprise. Robach confronted Holmes, 46, during the episode, describing him as “moody” and addressing his “communication kinks.”
During their latest episode, when asked if he would recommend recording fights, Holmes emphatically responded, “Hell no!” He candidly admitted that the podcast argument had triggered additional conflicts, emphasizing the potential for increased negativity if couples are not in a good place emotionally.
Holmes reflected on the experience, stating, “We weren’t listening to it back to try to call each other on something. We were listening to it as producers essentially and listening through it. And I absolutely, I found myself more upset with you by listening back to it than I was when we were actually in it.”
Robach expressed her discomfort, stating, “I don’t think I ever want to record our fight again because if I made you mad the first time, it’s like with time and space you get re-angered or more angry.” Holmes added, “I didn’t like it! I didn’t like it,” revealing they had to listen to the podcast multiple times, effectively reliving the emotional turmoil.
The couple, confirming their continued commitment, shared a joint Instagram Reel, reassuring their followers that they are “still together.” Walking arm-in-arm through the streets of New York City, they addressed the authenticity of their latest podcast episode, acknowledging the challenges of deciding whether to share such intimate details publicly.
Holmes emphasized, “It was something we really struggled and debated about whether or not we should even put out there — but at this point, I’m glad we did.” Robach added that their goal was to provide a transparent portrayal of their relationship, showcasing the complexities that most relationships encompass.
As they navigate the intricacies of love and commitment, Holmes concluded, “No, people do not record your fights,” with Robach emphasizing that “ignorance is bliss.” Their podcast aims to offer insights into the multifaceted nature of relationships, encouraging listeners to embrace the highs and lows while staying true to their authentic selves.
