Andrew Shue and Marilee Fiebig are engaged, nearly four years after the end of their respective marriages to former GMA3 presenters Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes brought them together under distinctly complicated circumstances.
Shue, 59, confirmed the engagement in an interview with People published on October 21, 2026. He and Fiebig, a 49-year-old immigration attorney, became engaged in the spring after dating for three years. No wedding date or further ceremony details have been announced.
“I don’t know how it happened, but there’s a happy ending,” Shue said.
Their friendship began during two public breakups
Shue and Fiebig first became friends in 2022 as media attention intensified around Robach and Holmes’s relationship. Both former television anchors maintained that they had privately separated from their spouses before becoming romantically involved, despite widespread speculation that they had cheated.
Robach and Shue finalized their divorce in March 2023. Holmes and Fiebig settled their divorce that October. Shue has three sons with his first wife, Jennifer Hageney, and previously helped raise Robach’s two daughters. Fiebig and Holmes share a daughter, Sabine.
The friendship between Shue and Fiebig later became romantic. They appeared together publicly at the Grassroot Soccer World AIDS Day Gala in New York in December 2024, after Shue had already offered a limited update on his personal life. Speaking on the Still the Place podcast that August, he said he was “very happy.” His sister, actor Elisabeth Shue, separately described him as “very, very happy,” just in case the first very left room for doubt.
The engagement stayed private until after another wedding
The couple kept their spring engagement private for several months. Its eventual disclosure came about a month after Robach and Holmes married in a private ceremony in Washington County, Arkansas, on September 19, 2026.
Us Weekly previously reported that Shue and Fiebig had given their former spouses their “blessing” to marry. They were reportedly invited to the ceremony but did not plan to attend. The outlet also said relations among the blended families had improved, particularly around coparenting.
That arrangement leaves four adults and several children managing a family structure created by two divorces and two new relationships. It is unusually public, though the practical work remains familiar: maintaining workable relationships after marriages end.
Shue said moving forward required him to accept his own role in the breakdown of his marriage and reconsider what he wanted from a relationship.
“I had to grow through a lot of pain and a lot of struggle and a lot of humility,” he told People. “I think the magic of love is when you go from a need to giving.”
He also acknowledged that meeting Fiebig through their shared upheaval was hardly conventional. According to Shue, the circumstances gave them an opportunity to become friends at a time when both needed support. That friendship eventually became a three-year relationship and, quietly at first, an engagement.
