T.J. Holmes' daughter, Sabine Holmes, has a beautiful bond with her parents, who are currently estranged from each other. She has two older half-siblings from her father's first marriage.

The precious preteen is a New York City brunch spot regular and has developed a sophisticated palate.

Sabine Is a Schoolgirl

Fiebig Holmes and T.J. welcomed Sabine, their first child, on January 11, 2013, in Atlanta, Georgia. The "Vampirina" voice actor frequently shares updates on her and their Daddy/daughter's adventures under the hashtags #BabySabine and #followthehair.

At the age of eight, the "Good Morning America" host marveled at his daughter, who could converse on travel and enquire about his work. In the July 2021 post, he said that Sabine "doesn't feel like a little kid anymore."

Like kids worldwide, the schoolgirl had to trade in her classroom for a laptop during the Covid-19 pandemic. The presenter shared a snap of her first day of homeschooling wearing an Arkansas Razorbacks sweatshirt.

Sabine Has a Close Bond with Both Her Parents

Marilee Fiebig Holmes is a University of Michigan grad who obtained her law degree from Vanderbilt University Law School. She was born in her mother's native Democratic Republic of the Congo, where her American father worked in the Peace Corps.

The Fiebig family relocated to the States when she was five. Watching her mother work through the red tape inspired Fiebig Holmes to become an immigration lawyer. Presently she is the V.P. of operations and general counsel at Wilhelmina.

The lawyer is also the chief diversity officer of Save the Children U.S., on the board of trustees at Brooklyn Independent Middle School, and volunteers as an Unlock Her Potential mentor.

The mother of one adapts her schedule to her young daughter's needs and enjoys walking her to school. During their morning stroll, they talk about everything, and the busy lawyer says, "it's nice to have that quality time together."

Fiebig Holmes was pleasantly surprised when Sabine adapted to her schedule for once towards the end of 2021. She assumed that when her kid asked to jog with her, the preteen wanted to be out in the warm autumn weather, but she was still game weeks later in the chillier weather.

The Vanderbilt alum was "embarrassed to admit" that she had to work hard to keep up with Sabine's pace, who would be seen comfortably jogging with her father through the park in an IG video.

In November 2016, T.J. joked that Sabine thought "#followthehair" is now her own reality show and shared a video of her requesting him to take snaps of her.

The children from his first marriage do not feature on his social media.

In fact, the pair used to have a mini-reality show of sorts with their weekly Instagram Live session with the charismatic presenter doing his youngest daughter's beautiful natural hair.

Sabine Is the Youngest of Her Father's Children

T. J. Holmes's March 2010 marriage to Fiebig Holmes was his second time down the aisle. He was previously married to Amy Ferson, with whom he has two children, daughter Brianna and son Jaiden.

According to news reports, T.J. is having an affair with Amy Robach, his co-host of the third hour of "GMA." Sabine's parents reportedly separated in August 2022 before the relationship began. The Fiebig Holmes clan still celebrated T.J.'s 45th as a family on August 19, 2022

There are rumors that the host previously also had an inter-office extramarital affair with producer Natasha Singh, a friend of Robach.
