T.J. Holmes Expresses Concerns Over Racial Elements Following Emotional Amy Robach Podcast Argument

The couple is opening up after baring it all in a podcast episode where they shared their lovers' quarrel.

T.J. Holmes is opening up about why he was initially hesitant to release the emotional podcast episode where he and girlfriend/co-host Amy Robach dissected their latest argument that left many wondering if they were still a couple or if the relationship teetered on implosion. "This is the truth of the matter -- I flat out said to both of you right there on the phone at 4:30 in the morning East Coast time -- that I don't want to put this out because this is going to, I fear be viewed, as a Black man beating up on a white woman," Holmes said. After the episode dropped, Holmes said he was confident his demeanor and the way he spoke with Robach didn't feed into the racist trope, but he was still worried -- a fear rooted from years of experience -- about how others would perceive him.
