While it wasn’t a rare sighting, the then-pair’s affectionate display allegedly attracted the attention of folks at the company. The outlet notes though that T.J. had already separated from his first wife Amy Ferson at the time. Their divorce was finalized in 2007 before he married his second wife Marilee Fiebig in 2010.

In December, T.J. filed for divorce from Marilee to end their 12-year marriage. Breaking her silence, Marilee said in a statement through her divorce attorney, “During the holiday season and in light of the challenging times, Marilee’s sole focus has remained on the overall best interest of her 9-year-old daughter. To that end T.J.’s lawyer and I have been working together to move their divorce forward privately, expeditiously and as amicably as possible.”

“Notwithstanding, we continue to be disappointed by T.J.’s lack of discretion, respect and sensitivity toward Marilee and the party’s daughter,” the lawyer added. “Marilee has been touched by the outpouring of support and looks forward to a new beginning in this new year.”

As for Chilli, she and Matthew confirmed their romance by posting a video of them dancing together in matching pajamas over the holidays.
