GMA's Robin Roberts shares cryptic message about 'weariness' in new backstage video after Amy Robach
GMA host Robin Roberts shared a cryptic message about "weariness" and "soaring like an eagle" on social media this week.
Robin shared her weekly "Tuesday Thoughts" on Instagram - but this message felt particularly relevant after the Amy Robach and TJ Holmes "affair" drama that rocked ABC.
"Here we are with our morning message of prayer," she said, welcoming viewers before launching into her prepared quote.
The faith-based words, which Robin had seemingly carefully selected, seemed to reference the romance scandal between GMA co-hosts TJ and Amy, which has been plaguing the morning show's crew, especially Robin.
"Weariness comes to all of us, and when you give into weariness, you lose your passion, strength, and determination to fight the good fight," Robin read from her phone while looking into the camera.
"You won't soar like an eagle if you're negative in your thinking.

"You may be facing a situation that is wearing you down, but God has given you strength for that battle," she continued with a confident smile.
"He says you will never face something you can't handle, so quit telling yourself it's too much," she said, waving her hand and grinning.
She continued with her video, praising strength and keeping the faith despite frustrating situations, ending up with a message of gratitude.
"Thank you for your promise that, as we wait upon thee, you will renew our strength and enable us to rise like an eagle."

Fans were immediately receptive to the message, agreeing with Robin's words and congratulating her on her recent engagement to her new fiancée, longtime girlfriend Amber Laign.
"Needed to hear this in the new year," one shared.
"I love you! I so needed to see and hear this today," another wrote.
"Amen and Major Congratulations on your engagement!" a third commented.
RAGING ROBIN
Robin has not been particularly pleased with her co-hosts' romance scandal.
One source close to GMA production told The U.S. Sun in November that the show's Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos were "furious" with the pair's dalliances.
"George and Robin do not like this. This is very messy," the source confirmed.
"They prided themselves on not having a sex scandal, like Today once did with Matt Lauer," they explained.
The source continued: "They were so proud all their hosts were decent, married, and committed people."
Even more "painful" was the fact that Robin was "really close" with Amy, and the pair shared a "strong" bond, according to the same source.
Robin was further described as an "idealist" and "the boss", who always jumps in and helps to clean up any messes that occur.
With Robin unsure how to do just that for the particularly delicate scandal, it caused her a great deal of frustration.
"This is all very dirty for a morning show," the source concluded.
BAD ROMANCE
Good Morning America fans have been asking TJ Holmes' ex Marilee Fiebig to "stay strong" following his affair with co-host Amy Robach.
The couple was spotted indulging in some PDA only hours after the announcement that TJ had filed for divorce from Marilee came out.
The pair had been married for 12 years, with the affair bringing the relationship to a swift end.
After the pair were seen kissing and cuddling during a Miami vacation last week, fans flocked to Marilee's Instagram with words of support.
One fan shared a heartfelt message: "Keep your head up, beautiful lady! This too shall pass."
Another wrote: "He didn’t deserve you and actually he doesn’t deserve anyone! You go girl!"
"Stay strong you are an amazing woman!" another fan wrote to encourage her.

Despite all the support sent her way on social media, Marilee has not spoken publicly about the affair.
She has not publicly shared an attorney for her role in the divorce settlement as of yet.
