On the recent episode of their “Amy & T.J.” podcast, Holmes explained how a passenger sitting four rows in front of him and Amy Robach on their JetBlue flight accused him of phone theft.

Describing the woman as “white with dirty blond hair,” he recalled: “I was using the bathroom up front — right next to the cockpit — and I come out, and there’s a flight attendant standing there with this little old lady.”

The 46-year-old continued: “She’s standing there and the flight attendant asks, ‘Did you see a phone in there?’ and I immediately turned around and said, ‘Oh, no. I didn’t see anything.'”

The former news anchor added that despite denying the accusation, the passenger “stepped towards” him and “gestured like she was about to frisk [him].”

“And says, ‘Oh, you don’t have it?'” he recounted. “In front of the plane, she flat-out accuses me of taking her phone.”

Holmes added that the confrontation prompted him to crouch down and ask if she was accusing him.

“And she is a short lady, so I actually crouched down, put my hands on my knees, and got down on her level, and I say, ‘Ma’am, are you telling me I took your phone?'” he narrated, per Page Six.

Holmes explained that despite the woman attempting to “ignore” him, the flight attendant was “overly apologetic” about the incident.

Later in the flight, the passenger who accused him of theft found her phone “in her seat.” The accuser then “turned” to Holmes “mortified, screaming across the five rows, ‘I’m so sorry!'”

Regarding the shocking moment, Robach noted, “Sorry doesn’t cut it at that point,” and Holmes agreed.

Holmes later explained that he was aware of the potential consequences and had to remain “calm.”

“If there weren’t more people around, then I wouldn’t have bent down and been as assertive as I was because I wouldn’t have a witness that I wasn’t aggressive towards her,” he added.

In another segment of the episode, Holmes noted that Robach has “witnessed” how differently he is treated as a “Black man going through some of the same scenarios in life but getting treated very differently.”

In a previous episode of their podcast earlier this month, Holmes and Robach openly discussed their thoughts on marriage, acknowledging they are actively considering it.

“We’re still deciding about what that level of commitment is … whether it’s legal or not … but mentally, emotionally, we’ve absolutely agreed to commit to one another,” Robach shared. “We haven’t figured [out] the marriage thing out yet.”

Holmes echoed this sentiment, adding: “We haven’t decided whether or not we are going to officially get married.”

Robach then went on to express her desire for a “life partner” and questioned the necessity of a “legally binding agreement.”

She admitted the significance of the labels “husband” and “wife” for their relationship’s perceived legitimacy despite their acknowledgment that it doesn’t necessarily change the reality of their commitment.

Robach said, “I’m just admitting it, and I’m not saying it makes any sense … There’s something about where I feel if I can say ‘that’s my husband and I’m his wife,’ it feels more official, and it feels more real even though that’s necessarily not the case because we lived enough life to know that’s not.”
