Amy Robach’s husband Andrew Shue stood by her as she battled cancer before alleged ‘affair’ with TJ Holmes

‘GMA’ host Amy Robach relied on her husband, actor Andrew Shue, during her battle with breast cancer, years before her alleged romance with co-host TJ Holmes was made public.

Amy Robach, 49, revealed she had breast cancer and was getting ready for a double mastectomy on GMA in 2013. The seasoned journalist had a live, on-air mammography on the program during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the results shockingly revealed the heartbreaking news.

Due to her hectic schedule, Robach reportedly postponed the test, but her GMA co-worker and cancer survivor Robin Roberts persuaded her to go. She was called back to the doctor a few weeks later, and who informed her that she had stage 2 breast cancer, as per Radar.

She revealed that her husband and family rushed to her side. “That night everyone flew into New York City and we started gearing up for a fight,” the television host recalled, revealing her plans to undergo the double mastectomy followed by reconstructive surgery.

Robach needed more chemotherapy and radiation treatment, and luckily she has been cancer-free for more than six years. She told AP, “I was doing (the mammogram) as a public service for other women and it truly saved my life. I knew I could be a voice – it wasn’t even an option.”

Robach was fortunate to have Andrew as a support system. She confessed in an interview that their marriage nearly ended when she was diagnosed, just three years into their relationship. Thankfully, they fought to prevent that from happening. “Andrew didn’t miss one chemo appointment, not one doctor’s appointment, he was there even when I didn’t want him to be,” she said.

The couple celebrated their 12 year anniversary in February of 2022.

However, her marriage to Shue is under scrutiny after pictures surfaced of her having an affair with her married co-host TJ Holmes. Just 2 weeks before Thanksgiving, Robach and Holmes were seen holding hands at the back of an Uber and were caught alone in each other’s apartments, as well as at a secluded cottage for a romantic getaway in Upstate New York and all over each other at the bar, in exclusive pictures obtained by Daily Mail.

In the wake of the affair coming to light, both Robach and Holmes have deactivated their Instagram accounts, Page Six reported. According to an insider, the ‘GMA 3’ co-hosts made a deliberate attempt to conceal their relationship. “They have a very cozy relationship on air, but that is what is expected. But they were very careful behind the scenes to keep their affair secret,” the source said.
