“There were so many people internally that were unhappy about it,” the insider said. “They were flirtatious.”

“Everyone knew they were close friends and had good chemistry,” the source said. “There was a point at which, several years ago, anotherGMAcast member had sort of made a joke with T.J. about how close he was with Amy and he was very embarrassed. They had each gone through different things and people knew it was a friendship.”
