Running away together

T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are taking another step forward in their relationship — actually a lot of steps. A source tells Page Six that the former "GMA3" co-anchors will be among the 25,000 runners taking part in New York City's half marathon on March 19. However, the couple will not be flagged on a list of celebrity runners as they have been in the past. Instead, they'll be running under the radar. The marathon comes after the lovebirds vacationed in Mexico and Los Angeles. T.J. and Amy are still going strong amid a tumultuous few months. On Nov. 30, 2022, DailyMail.com published a bombshell story alleging that the duo — who were both married to other people at the time — had evolved their friendship into a romantic relationship many months earlier. In the wake of the scandal, ABC pulled both Amy and T.J. off the air on Dec. 5 while the network's president figured out next steps, and nearly two months later on Jan. 27, 2023, both were let go. "After several productive conversations … about different options, we all agreed it's best for everyone that they move on from ABC News," an ABC News spokesperson said. Both T.J. and Amy have split from their respective spouses.

Newly "minted" money man

Ryan Reynolds is about to score a huge payday. On Wednesday, March 15, T-Mobile announced that it had purchased Mint Mobile for $1.35 billion. The "Deadpool" actor owns a 25% stake in Mint, but it's unknown exactly how much he'll profit in the deal. Still, it's expected that he'll see a windfall of money. Under new ownership, Ryan will continue in his creative role as a spokesman for Mint. "Mint Mobile is the best deal in wireless and today's news only enhances our ability to deliver for our customers," Reynolds said in a statement. "We are so happy T-Mobile beat out an aggressive last-minute bid from my mom, Tammy Reynolds, as we believe the excellence of their 5G network will provide a better strategic fit than my mom's slightly-above-average mahjong skills. I am so proud of the entire Mint team and so excited for what's to come." Ryan seems to have the magic touch. Back in 2020, spirit giant Diageo bought Aviation Gin for $610 million (Ryan was a part owner of Aviation.) His Wrexham soccer club, which is owns with Rob McElhenney, is also in first place in its league.

New name, old name

Meet Brie and Nikki Garcia… formerly known as the Bella twins. On Tuesday, March 14, the women announced their retirement from the WWE. In doing so, they also revealed they are going back to their real names. "Today we are officially from here on out, the Garcia Twins, Brie and Nikki Garcia," Nikki said during the sister's Sirius XM show, which will officially be called The Nikki & Brie Show going forward. Nikki noted that is "a new chapter" in their lives. Brie added, "I just want to thank Brie Bella, the character, the name, all of it that I have been the last … 16, 17 years. I am so excited to close that chapter on Brie Bella, put that book to the side, and open up a new one and see what Brie Garcia's going to do next." Nikki also thanked her alter ego. "And I am so beyond grateful for Nikki Bella," she added. "Nikki Bella, she powered me, she inspired me, she truly made me become fearless. And the road that she has paved, what she's done for women and the youth — and will continue to do as Nikki Garcia." It's very unlikely the women will ever switch back to the Bella monickers that made them famous, as WWE owns the rights to the name.

The look on their faces…

Savannah Chrisley will never forget the look on her parents' faces when they learned their fate in court. "It took three days for the verdict to come back," Savannah said on the "Off the Vine" podcast. "I will never forget when they stood up to read the verdicts and it was like, 'Guilty, guilty, guilty,' like, over and over and over again." Last summer, Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley were found guilty of bank and wire fraud and tax evasion. They were sentenced to a combined 19 years in prison. "I just saw the looks on my parents' faces and just everything — they were just in tears. We were not expecting that. We were like, 'There's no way,'" Savannah added, noting she was "100 percent" convinced that Todd and Julie were not guilty. Still, Todd and Julie plan to appeal their verdicts. "I hope that this appeal will show those things because we were never given an evidentiary hearing by the judge," Savannah said. "I know the things they have and have not done. I know the witch hunt. When the government wants someone, they want someone. They're going to do whatever it takes to make it look how they need it to look. There's no resentment whatsoever."

No drama

As the drama between Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez continues, Justin Bieber is steering clear of it. Last month, social media was all abuzz after resurfaced and new videos of Hailey seemed to show her shading both Selena and her BFF Taylor Swift. Amid the drama, the "Wolves" singer announced a social media break. But, while social media continues to stir the Selena-Hailey pot, Justin is rolling with the punches. "Hailey and Justin are doing fine. They don't want to continually deal with this repetitive, ongoing former relationship drama," a source told ET. "They are just taking things day by day and don't want this to be something that impacts them negatively. Justin knows that speaking publicly about it will only amplify the situation and bring more attention to it, so they have been supporting each other privately." Selena is also letting the drama roll off her back. "Selena is staying in her lane and doing her own thing. She is dating and open to love," the source said. "She is focused on maintaining her health, while still being attentive to her fans. Selena has been going to therapy, leaning on her friends and family, and keeping her circle close."
