Hindsight is giving T.J. Holmes a more positive outlook on his “upended” career in broadcast journalism.

Like his girlfriend, Amy Robach, Holmes launched a TikTok account and used his first video to “reintroduce” himself and address what topics he’ll be discussing about his life — both personally and professionally.

“I am a podcaster, a partner and a longtime broadcast journalist, and it’s the 25-plus year career in broadcast journalism that was upended about a year ago when some aspects of my personal life, including who I’m dating, became tabloid fodder,” Holmes told his newfound followers.

The former “GMA3” co-anchor shared that the scandal prompted him to leave social media and described the ordeal as “a year of hell.”

“I guess going through it I would’ve called it the worst year of my life,” he reflected, “but now as I sit here before you some perspective it was the best year of my life and one of the best blessings of my life.”

Holmes, 46, said he’s never been happier or healthier and, in fact, is the “best version” of himself — most of which he credits to Robach.

“A lot of that has to do with living authentically, and a lot of that has to do with who I am with and yes, to my dearest Amy Robach, who I am now going through life with and navigating a life with now,” he said.

“She’s such a big part of it and such a big part of my day-to-day life.”
