There’s a reason Carrie didn’t want Big to have a TV in the bedroom.
Amy Robach admitted she kicked her boyfriend and former “GMA3” co-host T.J. Holmes out of bed in the middle of the night earlier this week — all because he was playing the TV too loud.
Robach, 51, revealed the details about the late-night affair on the August 8 episode of her podcast with Holmes, “Amy & T.J.”

The couple has been watching and reporting on the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics on their podcast, and just as they were in the home stretch of the thirty-third Olympiad, the games drove a wedge between the two.
“We’ve been watching, we watched the marathon swim this morning,” Holmes said on Wednesday before being cut off by Robach.
“You watched the marathon swim,” she interjected. “Let’s just be honest.”
“This one actually started earlier than the other event,” Holmes replied. “This one is at 1:30 a.m.”
“You got up at 2.30 this morning,” Robach added.
“To literally watch women swim through a river,” the former CNN anchor finished.
“Babe, you’re insane,” Robach said with a laugh. “So he came, he put it on while we’re both lying there. And normally we all know TJ likes the TV on. And I can drone [sic] it out. But for some reason, the commentating, I just, I started getting into it and then I couldn’t fall back asleep. So you had to go into the other room.”
Holmes admitted he was fully absorbed in the competition.
“Because you have to, this is a sport,” he added. “It’s not like constant, it’s constant action, but you can’t really see action. It’s like watching a NASCAR race. At some point, you just think they’re going around in circles. You have to really pay attention for the nuance. And I had to have all the nuance explained to me.”
“So you had to turn up the volume a little,” Robach recalled, revealing the exact moment that Holmes had to leave the bed. “And that’s when I was like, babe, can you turn down the volume? And so you just left the room.”
Robach and Holmes met as co-anchors on ABC’s third hour of “Good Morning America.” The pair began working together in 2020. Despite both having been married to other people, they started dating in the spring of 2022. At the time, they denied having an affair.
