Amy Robach has not shared anything on social media since November 2022, having kept a low profile since her affair with T.J. Holmes and consequent departure from GMA

The former 20/20 co-anchor even remained offline when her youngest daughter Annalise turned 17 last week, and also hasn't remarked on the news of her firstborn Ava, 20's, music video release. 

The aspiring singer is releasing her debut album, A Place To Come Home To, later this month, and shared a clip from the accompanying video for her latest track, Old Movies.

While Amy didn't comment, her mom, Joanie Robach, couldn't resist sharing her pride for her granddaughter with a heartfelt and emotional message. She wrote: "Oh Ava… there are no words… except unbelievable, controlled, perfection, soulful, amazing, tone, mood, captivating, star, proud."

 Ava was quick to reply to her grandmother's words, writing: "Love you Noanie!"

It's been a difficult time for Ava and her sister Annalise, whose mom and former stepfather, Andrew Shue, finalized their divorce earlier this year. Amy and Andrew had been married for 12 years and helped to raise each other's children.

Despite their divorce - as a result of Amy's affair - Amy and Andrew have both remained on good terms with their stepchildren. Andrew recently took his three sons and Amy's daughters out to a Bruce Springsteen concert in New York City, and the time was documented on social media. Amy, meanwhile, still follows her stepsons on social media.

The former couple split after it was revealed back in November that Amy had been having an affair with her then GMA3 co-star T.J. Holmes. The new relationship has not only cost Amy her marriage, but her job too.
