    THANK YOU SAM – A Heartfelt Thank You from Ginger Zee Surprises GMA viewers – The Truth behind it leaves everyone in Tears!

    Ginger Zee has never had so much to be grateful for and it’s gearing up to be a Thanksgiving like no other for her and her family.

    The Good Morning America host delivered a very special festive message to fans on Thursday via Instagram.

    Taking to the social media platform, Ginger revealed her huge “first” alongside a photo from inside her family home. 

    Despite the early start, Ginger was in a jovial mood – and for good reason too. “It’s my first thanksgiving off EVER so I got up and cooking as early as I start GMA and couldn’t be happier,” she revealed.

    “First step toasting the cornbread I made yesterday to go in the stuffing… and make room for the turkey! Have fun today everyone #Thanksgiving #prep.”

    The photo displayed her cooking efforts as fans rushed to congratulate her for having a day off – and for producing some delicious-looking food.

    “So grateful for you. Enjoy your special day and thank you for your reporting and smiley face,” wrote one, while a second said: “Fabulous!! So Happy for you! Have an amazing day!.”

    She’ll be excited to spend the day with her family, including her husband, Ben Aaron, and their sons, Adrian and Miles.

    Sam Champion stepped in for her on Thanksgiving so that she could be with her loved ones.

    Last year’s celebrations didn’t look as though they went quite as smoothly for Ginger who detailed a cooking catastrophe at home.

    She posted a photo of herself in her kitchen splattered with what looked like blood and the entire room was also caked in the red goo.

    She revealed that she had been trying to make sorbet but the blender exploded. “Thanksgiving prep is going well over here — how about you?,” she wrote, before adding: “I swear I was just following directions. #cranberrysorbet @roofustee @zuidgeestcraft @ashleyyxxo.”

    At least this year, it appears Ginger has it all in hand and not having to juggle time in the GMA studio AND cooking Thanksgiving dinner will be welcomed.

    The family welcomed a new addition ahead of the holidays with Ginger sharing a photo of her cousin’s adorable new baby Laken.

    Ginger Zee has been a staple of the ABC News circuit since 2011, when she first joined Good Morning America Weekend, and is now one of its most recognizable faces.

    Over the weekend, the 42-year-old was inundated with support and congratulatory messages when she revealed she was celebrating a milestone with the network.

    On December 2, 2013, Ginger was officially promoted to the network’s Chief Meteorologist, taking over from Sam Champion after he left the network to take a job with The Weather Channel. Watch the moment it happened below…

    Ginger took to her Instagram to mark the huge decade milestone with the clip of Sam unofficially passing off the baton (or rain boots) to her to mark the occasion).

    Several other colleagues from the show were featured in the clip, sharing more insight into Ginger and how much of a valuable addition she was to the team, and clearly she was moved.

    In the caption alongside the clip, she wrote: “Tomorrow marks 10 years since I officially became chief meteorologist at ABC News (I honestly didn’t realize it was this date – until my friend @producerrob sent me this video as a celebration gift) – 12 years in total here at @abcnews, it’s a ride that’s beyond my wildest dreams.”

    She continued: “The gratitude is oozing out of me today and every day as we keep growing this ultimate weather and now climate team. Can’t wait to see what we do next,” and proceeded to thank all her colleagues as well as husband Ben Aaron.

     

    The GMA official Instagram page also shared the moment and adorably wrote: “Happy 10 year anniversary to @ginger_zee becoming our chief meteorologist! What a wonderful ray of sunshine in our lives.”

    She replied back: “So many outstanding moments after that! from standing in the only Cat 5 to starting the climate unit with my team. Can’t wait to see what the next decade brings.”

     

    Her friends and co-stars congratulated her for the incredible milestone, responding with comments like: “Is it even possible to be this proud of someone that you have never met? Evidently it is!! Congratulations Ginger!! You are quickly becoming a national treasure,” and: “So proud of you and honored to have been a part of your journey!!! Thank you for being a trailblazer!!”

    In October 2021, Ginger announced that she was not only the chief meteorologist on the show but had also been promoted to the Managing Climate Editor for a brand new team.

    “They Made It All Up – We Did Nothing Wrong” – Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes drop B0mbshells in Podcast that leave GMA fans stunned!

    Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes are back! The couple have made their return to the spotlight, officially, with the release of the debut episode of their podcast, simply titled Amy & T.J.

    The former Good Morning America anchors are not holding back when it comes to discussing the way their romance first broke, their exit from the jobs they loved, and how they’ve reacted to life since.

    Here are five of the biggest bombshell revelations from the very first episode of the podcast, released a year after they were first taken off the air from GMA3

    They were already in the middle of divorce proceedings

    Amy and T.J. have gone public with their relationship in the years since

    While they remain vague about when their relationship first went from friendship to romance, both Amy and T.J. clarify that when the photos of their amorous outings were leaked on November 30th, they were already in the midst of divorce proceedings.

    “The day the pictures were released that outed us, we were both in divorce proceedings,” T.J., 46, stated, with Amy, 50, revealing that she and her ex-husband had been living apart since August.

    Amy was married to actor Andrew Shue and T.J. was married to attorney Marilee Fiebig. Both are also parents, and discussed that the pictures being published were “most difficult” for their children, who were still dealing with the fallout of the divorce.

    Amy revealed that T.J. had suffered a terrifying health ordeal the day after news went public

    The fallout from the reveal proved particularly drastic for T.J., who suffered a horrific health scare due to a difficult spiral of emotions the very next day.

    Amy tearfully recalled receiving distressing text messages from her partner and after she was unable to get in touch with him, rushed to his house with her father to find him in a state of disarray and nearly unc0nscious, with T.J. terming it a “welfare check.”

     

    He shared that he had been dr1nking and t@king subst@nces since getting off work that day, adding that he “didn’t stop” till Amy arrived. “That’s why I was in the state that I was in.”

    Both Amy and T.J. revealed that after the photos were first leaked, they were drafting public statements to be shared, confirming that they were indeed in a relationship and were separated from their respective spouses.

    “We were putting together a press release,” Amy said. “It was hard because anyone who was a viewer, anyone who was outside our small circle didn’t know we were getting a divorce.”

    They both mentioned that there was a press release somewhere that was once ready to go and T.J. expressed regret for the fact that their romance was exposed before people knew they were unattached.

    The phone call from ABC News

    The week after, they were both readying to get back to work and put the scandal behind them, when they each received a phone call from their bosses at ABC News at 6 AM on a Monday morning.

    They were told to not come into work, even though it was emphasized that they’d technically done nothing wrong. Amy tearfully combated the decision, stating that it would highlight the growing coverage even more if they were to not go on the air.

     

    “I was sick to my stomach, because we knew what was coming once that announcement was made,” Amy reiterated.

    Through it all, they expressed that their family and friends were extremely supportive, with Amy revealing that one of her biggest cheerleaders was former Today and GMA correspondent and current The View host Sara Haines.

     

    T.J. joked that “maybe they’ll fire her” after Amy opened up about their bond, expressing that they’d remained close since working together on NBC and she constantly texted and checked up on her.

    The former GMA star was one of the guests to attend Today Show producer Jennifer Long’s wedding to Reid Sterrett, and she was joined by many co-hosts from her former rival network show, including Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie, Al Roker, Sheinelle Jones and Craig Melvin.

    Amy has a close bond with Jennifer, and despite having worked on ABC for many years, she was one of the many celebrities in attendance at the producer’s leaving party back in 2019, when she stepped down as her role as a segment producer to become a special projects producer across many NBC shows, still including Today, but also the Tonight Show.

    The party, according to Page Six, was also attended by Amy’s then-husband, Andrew Shue.

    Amy shared a number of photos from inside Jennifer and Reid’s special day, which was held at the Union League Club in New York City.

    It’s certainly been a busy few days for Amy and T.J., who attended the Jingle Ball NYC in Madison Square Garden on Friday 8 December.

    The happy couple were all smiles as they stepped out for the special event, and T.J. took along his pre-teen daughter Sabine, who had the time of her life dancing with her famous dad, in footage shared by the star on Instagram.

    The couple have found themselves in the headlines once again after it was revealed that their exes have began dating. Amy was married to Melrose Place actor Andrew Shue for 12 years, while T.J. was married to ex-wife Marilee Fiebig for the same length of time.

    The pair were spotted looking loved-up in photos showing them packing up their jeep published in the Daily Mail last week, just after Amy and T.J.’s debut podcast episode aired. In November 2022, Amy and T.J.’s relationship first came to light after photos of them looking loved-up were published in the Daily Mail.

    The couple have recently revealed that despite claims of an affair, they had both been separated from their partners when the news became public.

    “November 30, 2022, was the day that we were, and this is very important, we were outed,” T.J. said during episode one of their new podcast.

    “To be clear, we were outed as being in a relationship, but everyone else thought we were being outed as adulterers — being outed as cheating on our spouses — and it wasn’t the case because the odd thing is, the day those pictures were taken and the day that article was released, we both at that point were in divorce proceedings.”

    Amy, 50, added: “Yes, we had attorneys, mediators. We were in the middle of divorces.”

    Michael Strahan loves nothing more than being a father and this year, he went through quite the change when his youngest children, 18-year-old twins Isabella and Sophia, flew the nest.

    The Good Morning America star has since been getting used to life as an empty nester, with the company of his two beloved dogs, Enzo and Zuma.

    However, over the weekend, the TV favorite was reunited with his daughter Isabella at his home in LA. Isabella is studying at the University of Southern California, and it appears as if the father-daughter duo had a great time together, along with Enzo and Zuma, who also featured in the picture.

    What’s more, the photo gave a rare look inside Michael’s stunning LA home, featuring an open-plan living room and a festive Christmas tree, as well as artwork displayed on the walls.

    “Nothing better then Enzo and Zuma to put a smile on my face…. Of course they wanted a treat so it wasn’t unconditional. LOL,” he wrote alongside the photos of him smiling while sitting on the couch with his dogs.

    Isabella was the person behind the camera, and made sure her dad gave her credit for the pictures. “Photo creds,” she told her dad via the comments section.

    Back in August when Isabella flew the nest, proud dad Michael paid tribute to her ahead of her big move away from home, sharing on Instagram: “Out of high school and on to USC! So proud of you, Isabella! Intelligent, beautiful, and hard-working!! I can’t wait to continue to watch you shine!!”

    Responding with equal enthusiasm, Isabella echoed with a spirited, “Fight on!” Amidst all her successes, one thing stands out—Isabella’s bio change on Instagram to “USC ‘27.”

    Isabella’s twin, Sophia, meanwhile, has gone off to study at North Carolina, at Duke College. At the time of her departure from NYC, the GMA star shared several pictures of himself with the teenager, both taken outside the college and at Target, where they were shopping for dorm supplies.

    “Dropped off the youngest of the tribe @sophialstrahan at college! Can’t believe how time has flown by and I’m so proud of her. I know she’s going to crush college life!! #DukeDad,” he wrote in the caption.

    Michael spends several days a week in LA where he hosts Fox NFL Sundays. For the rest of the week, he lives in New York City, in a gorgeous apartment in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, close to the GMA studios.

    When it comes to his downtime, he enjoys nothing more than going unnoticed in his neighbourhood.

    Talking about the relaxed area of NYC during an interview with the New York Times, he said: “I like the Upper West Side, because, being a father, I like the family feel to it. you see mothers with strollers, people walking their dogs. One thing I love about the neighbourhood, when you go into places, it’s not like, ‘Michael!’ I’m another person who’s just there.”

    Ginger Zee adores her job on GMA but she recently hinted at frustrations when a fan questioned her recent absence from the set in New York.

    When the popular meteorologist shared a post from her latest assignment witnessing the spectacular Northern Lights in Canada, she was quizzed by a curious social media follower. 

    Although she confessed she “couldn’t wait” to share details of her trip with viewers, Ginger also expressed some disappointment at not being back in the studio with her co-hosts as Sam Champion has temporarily replaced her.

    One fan commented on her Instagram post by writing: “Looks like you’re having a blast! Need you back soon! Not sure why they have Sam [Champion] at the desk on GMA but never you. Definitely don’t appreciate you as much as they should.”

    Rather than disagree, Ginger quipped: “@mblazer08 thanks so much! I’m back next week but yeah they probably won’t change where I am on set. I will just keep doing my best with what I am allowed to do and focusing on the positives.”

    Ginger didn’t elaborate on her post, but when fans said they were missing her on set, she replied: “Back next week,” and added red heart emojis.

    Ginger is often on assignment, meaning she has to take time away from her family, including her husband, Ben Aaron, and their two young sons, Adrian and Miles.

    She previously confessed that it is “always so hard to leave” her loved ones and has faced backlash from people who have criticized her for being a working mom.

    In 2021, she was trolled by a fan who commented on one of her Instagram posts. They wrote: “Your kids will resent you when they grow up. For leaving them during their most vulnerable time in life. We were lied to. Really can’t have it all.”

    It sparked a thoughtful and defiant response from Ginger who retaliated by writing: “That person has it wrong but I can’t say that there aren’t sacrifices. Both mom, dad, grandparents, whomever makes up the village.

    “There are sacrifices as a parent no matter what you do and all forms of parenting should be respected, including parents that can’t work because childcare is too expensive, don’t work because they choose not to. I admire it all.”

    She continued: “You can be a parent that stays home, you can be a parent that works outside of the house, you just have to be the best parent you can be. Or don’t be a parent if you don’t want (the whole society being obsessed with having children is not for everyone).

    “I wake up with gratitude every day that I have had a chance at being a parent. Not everyone gets this opportunity and I’ll keep doing my best.”

    Michael Strahan shared a cryptic post on Tuesday that no doubt raised some alarm bells after he admitted he is his “own worst enemy”.

    The ‘GMA‘ star is finally back on the morning show following an extended hiatus last month due to a “personal family matter”, but judging by his latest Instagram Story, it appears Michael still has some unresolved issues on his mind.

    Michael reshared a quote from himself that was originally posted by his entertainment agency, SMAC Entertainment. It read: “We’re our own worst enemy. You doubt yourself more than anybody else ever will. If you can get past that, you can be successful.

    Alongside the quote, the former NFL star added: “The person who is hardest on you is usually yourself. #RaiseYourGame.”

    Michael returned to ‘GMA‘ on November 15 but didn’t divulge the reason behind his absence. He received a warm welcome from his co-anchors, George Stephanopoulos, and Robin Roberts, who was almost in tears over his return.

    “We have tears of joy,” Robin said as she looked fondly at her friend and colleague. “Because Michael is back.” George nodded his head as Michael then added: “It is great to be back with both of you. It is great to be back. Thank you guys.”

    On November 6, an ABC News spokesperson revealed to HELLO! that the beloved TV anchor was dealing with personal matters. “Michael Strahan will not be with us this week as he is dealing with some personal family matters,” a representative for the network shared in a statement. “We appreciate everyone’s thoughts and concerns.”

    The 51-year-old TV personality was also absent from Fox’s NFL Sunday, with Fox Sports commentator Curt Menefee telling viewers Michael was “dealing with a personal family matter”.

    It’s been a year of big change for Michael, who became an empty nester at the end of August following his 19-year-old twins’ enrollment at college. Isabella moved to California to study at the University of Southern California, while Sophia went off to Duke College in North Carolina.

So proud of you, Isabella! Intelligent, beautiful, and hard-working!! I can’t wait to continue to watch you shine!!”

    When Michael moved Sophia into her new home at Duke, he wrote on Instagram: “Dropped off the youngest of the tribe @sophialstrahan at college! Can’t believe how time has flown by and I’m so proud of her. I know she’s going to crush college life!! #DukeDad.”

    He added: “They’re very far from each other, but they went to separate high schools, since tenth grade. They have completely separate sets of friends, even though they are great friends with each other.”

    BREAKING NEWS: Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes reveal Future Plans about MARRIAGE – fans go wild!

    Amy Robach and TJ Holmes, once co-hosts of Good Morning  America 3, have recently opened up about their controversial relationship and subsequent career shifts in their new podcast, “Amy & TJ.”

     In a candid episode, the couple addressed listener queries about their romance and life post-ABC, following their dismissal due to an all3ged aff@ir.

    The duo’s relationship, which became public in November 2022, led to intense scrutiny and backlash. Amy, 50, and TJ, 46, spoke about the challenges they faced, particularly concerning 1nt3rracial dating, given their different racial backgrounds.

    TJ initially defended their relationship, after which Amy shared her harrowing experience with public backlash.

    “Initially, when the news of our relationship came out when I had my work email, I was aghast. And this was the minority, but there were some really hateful, awful emails that included d3ath thr3ats, specific d3ath thr3ats because I was with a black man,” Amy revealed.

    She described this as an eye-opening experience into racial intolerance she had never encountered before.

    Amy also emphasized the commonalities and shared values between her and TJ, despite their different backgrounds.

    In a surprising twist during the podcast, TJ playfully hinted that they might have already taken significant steps in their relationship.

    In response to a question about getting matching tattoos, he teased, “How do you know we haven’t already? We’ll leave it at that.” He jokingly added, “Getting a tattoo together. That’s more of a commitment than marriage,” further stirring curiosity among listeners.

    Amy’s laughter seemed to suggest TJ’s comments were in jest, but the ambiguity left listeners wondering about the couple’s actual status.

    The podcast has become a platform for Amy and TJ to share insights into their relationship. In a recent episode, they discussed the possibility of marriage. TJ humorously expressed his desire to marry Amy, saying, “I want to marry you….. In part. I want to marry you because you are 50, and I’m 46, and I’m sick of introducing you as my girlfriend.”

    Amy, reflecting on their past experiences, acknowledged the seriousness of their relationship, “We did not enter this relationship for fun or ‘let’s see what happens.’ We entered this relationship because we intended on spending our lives together.”

    Both Amy and TJ were married to their respective spouses when their relationship began – Amy to actor Andrew Shue and TJ to Marilee Fiebig, with whom he shares a child. Amy emphasized that they are not rushing into marriage, considering their past experiences, but acknowledged a deep commitment to each other.

    She continued: “We welcomed baby boy Earthside last month. Born safely at home with daddy, big brother and sister nearby. The five of us,” and declared: “Our family is complete and blessed beyond our wildest dreams.”

    She concluded: “Eternally grateful to @cihuapahtlimc for again empowering me to trust my body and birth new life comfortably on my terms,” tagging Dr. T’Karima Ticitl, who offers home birth midwife services.

    The comments section under the post was quickly flooded with celebratory messages from her ABC colleagues and fans alike, with Deborah Roberts writing: “Beautiful! Congratulations to the entire family,” as Lara Spencer added: “Welcome little one. We love you already,” and her co-host Whit also wrote: “The most precious gift,” plus Gio weighed in with: “A beautiful baby for a beautiful mama. Can’t wait to meet him and hug you! Congratulations!!”

    Others followed suit with: “What a beautiful picture – congrats to you and your family!!” and: “Incredible! So happy for your family growing a wee bit bigger!” as well as: “Congratulations!! So thrilled for the whole family!”

    Janai had previously opened up to People about her wishes for a third baby, and that she had “been manifesting this.”

    She told the outlet: “I’ve been very open about wanting to have a third. Just before I found out I told friends at lunch ‘I really feel like things are starting to clear out to allow me to welcome the blessing.’”

    The doting mom also opened up about her wish of having another home birth, as she did with her previous two babies, and said: “It went so well and was so beautiful. I was determined to do it again with my daughter and had an incredible water birth during the pandemic. People would look at me crazy when I told them it was magical. It truly was.”

    The hosts of Good Morning America pride themselves on not only their onscreen chemistry but their friendships off air too.

    But one year after Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes were taken off the air due to their aff@ir, the star has confessed she doesn’t miss the ABC show.

    During her joint podcast with T.J. this week, Amy spoke about the lessons she had learned in the last 12 months.

    She told her boyfriend: “I learned that I never want to go back to the grind of morning television. And I learned that I don’t miss the job.” Amy then added: “I miss the people.”

    While many of her co-stars preferred to steer clear of passing comment on their friend’s romance, they have subtly shared support for her since.

    In September, Sam Champion, who often appears as a meteorologist on GMA, liked Amy’s Instagram post when she shared a photo of herself with her daughter Ava.

    Clearly happy to see her back online after a lengthy break from social media, he simply commented with a smiley face emoji.

    George Stephanopoulos was also all smiles when quizzed on the GMA shakeup not long after Amy and T.J. departed.

    He told ETonline that “things were great” and buzzed about Eva Pilgrim and DeMarco Morgan replacing them.

    Their GMA3 colleague, Dr. Jennifer Ashton has been praised for her professional handling of the situation too.

    Amy and T.J. recently shared how much she knew of their secret relationship on the podcast.

    After the co-hosts were asked when Dr. Jen first learned of the relationship, or if she suspected anything, T.J. shared: “Dr. Ashton is somebody that I told – she might be one of the first – I think I told her about the divorce,” referring to his split from ex-wife Marilee Fiebig.

    He went on: “She is one I think I told about the divorce before I even told my parents,” before Amy explained that they were put in a tricky situation when it came to attending Jennifer’s wedding in early November, when they were already secretly a couple.

    They decided to brave it and Amy said: “I’m sure there might have been some raised eyebrows,” Amy continued, adding: “But we needed to tell her,” and maintained their former colleague did also already know she was getting divorced from her husband at the time, Andrew Shue.

    Ginger Zee has also remained close to Amy and congratulated her after she ran the New York Marathon on November 5.

    She kept her comment on Amy’s Instagram post short and sweet and wrote: “Enjoy! Congrats,” just as Lara Spencer penned: “Well deserved, congrats.”

    While Amy and T.J. weren’t pictured in Robin Roberts and Amber Laign’s wedding in September, they are believed to have also maintained their friendship.

    Amy and Robin have always shared a special bond as she wouldn’t have discovered she had breast cancer if it wasn’t for Robin pushing for her to get a mammogram on GMA.

    Despite Amy saying she doesn’t miss the grind of morning TV, T.J. confessed he felt like they were, “the folks who lost the jobs we love because we love each other.”
