The broadcaster recalled that her parents were flying to New York whenphotos of her and Holmes cozying up together surfacedin November 2022. At the time, Robach hadnot confirmedher separation from her actor husbandAndrew Shue, nor Holmes with his attorney wifeMarilee Fiebig.

“I remember thinking, Oh my God, I have my parents coming to town — and they were in the air when this dropped — so I’m trying to text them while they’re on the plane to say please don’t believe everything you’re reading,” she shared. “Please let me talk to you when you land.”

Despite her reservations before her parents’ arrival, Robach admitted it turned out to be “one of the most amazing things to have happened.”

“They were supporting me. They asked me what they could do,” she explained. “They were my lifeline in that moment because my whole world fell apart.”

She continued: “It’s so hard to think about just going through a divorce publicly. But now to have all of these accusations and all of these pictures and trying to explain what was actually happening versus what people said was happening. It was awful, and they were amazing and they got me through those first few days.”

Since then, Robach and Holmes havebecome more comfortable showcasing their relationshippublicly, with many of their romantic outings occurring bothat homeandabroad. Last weekend, Robach and Holmesmade their red carpet debut as a coupleat iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball 2023.
