Loutelious "T. J." Holmes Jr. (born August 19, 1977) is an American journalist and national television personality. Holmes first gained national prominence as an anchor and correspondent for CNN. He spent five years at the network anchoring CNN Saturday & Sunday Morning.

Holmes left CNN at the end of 2011 after signing a multi-platform talent deal with BET Networks, which included the new show Don't Sleep.[1][2] BET and Holmes parted ways in 2013 upon the program's cancellation.[3][4]

In December 2012, Holmes became a substitute weekend anchor on MSNBC. He also appeared on CNN as a fill-in correspondent and anchor in 2013.

From September 2014 to January 2023, Holmes worked for ABC News as a correspondent and anchor. He was fired after it was revealed that he had a romantic relationship with ABC host Amy Robach.[5][6][7]
