Marilee Fiebig celebrates daughter’s 10th birthday amid T.J. Holmes divorce
Marilee Fiebig is celebrating her daughter’s milestone birthday amid her ongoing divorce drama with T.J. Holmes.
The chief diversity officer of Save the Children shared a photo of Sabine lounging on a chaise and another of her daughter’s birthday cake and penned a heartfelt tribute in honor of her 10th birthday.
“And then she’s 10! Happiest birthday to this wonderful human of mine, who pours so much goodness into the world,” Fiebig began her Instagram post.
“Knowing Sabine is in itself a blessing, so the privilege of raising and loving her feels like the gift of my lifetime.”
Fiebig, 45, continued her message by giving thanks to her family, who kicked off Sabine’s birthday week with a “surprise NYE celebration,” as well as other friends.
“I only hope that double digits doesn’t mean that she will no longer reach to hold my hand or ask for a goodnight hug. My heart couldn’t take it. 💞 #januarybaby,” she concluded.
Sabine is the only child the “GMA3” co-anchor and Fiebig share. Holmes, 45, has two other children from his previous marriage to Amy Ferson.
Sabine’s birthday celebrations arrived just days after Fiebig broke her silence on her and Holmes’ divorce in light of his affair with his co-anchor Amy Robach.
“During the holiday season and in light of the challenging times, Marilee’s sole focus has remained on the overall best interest of her 9-year-old daughter [Sabine],” Fiebig’s divorce attorney, Stephanie Lehman, told the Daily Mail in a statement.
Lehman shared that she’s working with Holmes’ divorce attorney to “move [Fiebig and Holmes’] divorce forward privately, expeditiously and as amicably as possible.”
She added, “Notwithstanding, we continue to be disappointed by T.J’s lack of discretion, respect and sensitivity toward Marilee and the party’s daughter.”
The final zinger appears to be a direct shot at Holmes and Robach, 49, proceeding with their romance in a very public manner. Shortly after Fiebig broke her silence and requested “discretion,” Robach was spotted leaving Holmes’ apartment.
The pair have remained off-air at ABC since the scandal broke, but an insider told Page Six that he’s “confident” he’ll be cleared in the network’s investigation.
“Of course, he’s taking [the review] seriously, but he’s confident he’s done nothing wrong that would merit him to lose his job,” a source told us.
