Amy and T.J. were fired when the network discovered their hush-hush romance.
The couple aired their dirty laundry on a recent episode of their podcast, Amy and T.J., in which they detailed Robach's frustrations with 46-year-old Holmes' lack of affectionate gestures.
Holmes, 51, confessed the pressure of getting ratings and staying relevant has "consumed both of us" and agreed to voice their grievances on-air at the urging of producer Amy Sugarman, who has strong ties to the reality TV industry.
Sources say Holmes is 'freaking out' because Robach has scheduled interviews away from the home.

Insiders claim the plan is to shop their uniquely frenzied lives as the basis for a show that will keep their faces on camera until they can once again score jobs as news anchors. But a source warned this could be their worst idea ever!
"They're just digging a deeper hole for themselves," an industry insider said of the couple's reality TV venture. "Reality TV only makes them look worse than the damaged goods they already are."
Holmes and Robach reportedly pitched a daytime talkshow to several networks last March to no avail.
Robach and Holmes' rumored reality TV dreams mark their latest attempt to reclaim their reputations and get back on-air.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, sources said the couple went to Los Angeles last March to pitch a daytime talk show to CNN, NBC and CBS that would rival Kelly Ripa's program with husband Mark Consuelos on their former network, ABC.
The same month, insiders dished the scandal-ridden couple were "aggressively pitching" their concept to the producers behind The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
As time passed and the show failed to materialize on any network, sources alleged the desperate couple were considering exchanging wedding vows on TV.
"They don't want to be seen as two cheaters shacking up, but two people who fell in love and want to be together for the rest of their lives," an insider told the National Enquirer.
The source added the couple were convinced they needed to overhaul their public image in order to pull off a career comeback.
