Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes’s discussion about couples and money — together with who must pay for an engagement ring if the couple has a joint account — led Robach to reveal that ex-husband Andrew Shue never proposed with a diamond ring.
After a pair of wild guesses about the average cost of an engagement ring ($5,500), Robach, 51, published on the Monday, May 20, episode of the couple’s “Amy & T.J.” podcast that her first ring “used to be $3,000” and “my second didn’t exist.” (Robach used to be married to Tim MacIntosh from 1996 to 2009 and Shue, 57, from 2010 to 2023.)
The discussion was sparked after Robach and Holmes, 46, started speaking a few lady who went viral by asking Reddit if she was within the mistaken for being disenchanted that her now-husband used to be paying for her $8,000 engagement ring with money from their joint account. The lady also said that she came upon about the payments once they got married, and that they had been saving up for a space in combination; then again, the person argued that the hoop was part of their total wedding ceremony expenses.
“She came upon that he was once paying for the hoop he proposed to her with their joint account. There was once no longer a dialogue. She used to be shocked by means of it, and that I will be able to perceive no longer having identified that that used to be taking place, or no longer having discussed that that’s how it used to be going to be paid for,” Robach mentioned.
She added, “Initially, I think I would be slightly eliminate, Like, ‘Whoa, you proposed to me with the ring that you simply couldn’t come up with the money for.’ That sounds silly. So that might most likely be just a little demanding to me. But I could get past it, and I can perceive, but first of all I would be pissed off.”
Holmes then argued that if the couple already had a joint account years earlier than and the man wanted to buy a hoop, “Where is the money meant to come back from?” He added, “How do I separate? How am I supposed to move pay for the hoop on my own? If all my money’s stepping into here? Do I put it on a secret credit card? What am I meant to do?”
This isn’t the first time the topic of engagements have come up with the duo.
A source exclusively told Us Weekly in March 2023 that Holmes and Robach have regarded as the “next steps” of their relationship and “have talked about shifting in in combination and getting engaged.”
“Friends really feel they'll get engaged quickly because they have been friends a very long time before they became enthusiasts,” the insider informed Us at the time. “They have a strong bond.”

While discussing their future on an April episode of their podcast, the twosome instructed viewers that whilst they’ve talked about marriage, they “haven’t decided” in the event that they wish to tie the knot just but.
“But I've mentioned to you, and I consider you’ve stated it to me as neatly, that I wish to be with you for the remainder of my life,” Robach advised Holmes. “And I would like to live with you when the time comes. It doesn’t should be these days, the following day or subsequent 12 months, however I would sooner or later need to live with you. I need a lifestyles partner. I need any individual who is with me. Yeah, I really like spending the night time with you and waking up with you.”
The former GMA3 coanchors raised eyebrows in November 2022 when they have been stuck getting comfy outdoor of the office. At the time, Holmes was married to Marilee Fiebig, while Robach was once married to Shue. Both have since finalized their divorces.
