Amy Robach said she was "heartbroken" about the split while T.J. Holmes reiterated that James was "not shy" about his intentions to propose to Kirkconnell

Kirkconnell, 28, subtly dropped a “like” on the message but has not offered further comment. A source now tells Us Weekly that Kirkconnell wasn’t blindsided by the split itself but rather James’ statement and post. Several hours earlier, James, 33, confirmed the pair ended their relationship.
