Robin Roberts is counting down the days until she says 'I do' - and it's safe to say, she's feeling all the emotions! 

The Good Morning America star took to Instagram on Monday evening to share a reflective post, alongside a picture of herself by the ocean, taken from a recent trip to Key West, Florida, which is where she and fiancée Amber Laign are thought to be getting married. 

In the caption, the ABC News star - who has been off work since last week -  wrote: "Wedding plans are all in place for this week. Time to take hands off the wheel and just breathe.

If anxious moments arise I’ll close my eyes and remember this zen moment." Fans were quick to send supportive messages to the soon-to-be bride, with one writing: "In the end, you know it’s about the marriage. 

"No matter what details go awry at the wedding, you and Amber are rock solid," while another wrote: "Breathe deeply and remember you are marrying the love of your life! Co grays to you both!!"

The fact they are getting married in September is all the more poignant too, as it's not only the same month as Amber's birthday - which falls on September 5 - but the very month they began dating.

The pair have now been dating for 18 years, and in this time they have faced many challenges that they have overcome together, including Robin's bone marrow transplant and breast cancer battle, as well as Amber's breast cancer diagnosis in 2021.

Robin and Amber's wedding is thought to be attended by their co-stars, with Lara Spencer previously saying she was looking forward to the big day, as was ABC News reporter Deborah Roberts - who will no doubt be accompanied by her husband, Al Roker. 

Back when Amber and Robin celebrated 15 years together back in September 2020, the former sports journalist wrote a lengthy tribute to her other half, detailing that very first date.

It read: "15 years ago I met you for drinks on a blind date that both you and I tried to cancel...twice. Your grace caught my eye right away and the ease of the evening continued to flow through dinner. We had a second date soon after and I couldn't believe how at ease I was with you as we shared each other's lives sipping lychee and apple martinis." 

"You left for Tahiti the following day and during that time apart I grew this feeling inside of me that still, is very present today... butterflies. Having you by my side is a gift as we continue to navigate this thing called life. "I drive you crazy… I know which is why I love you even more to this day. You have the kindest heart and most beautiful soul than anyone I know.
