Meet Rodney Thomas, Husband of FOX 2 Detroit’s Amy Andrews
Amy Andrew married her husband Rodney Thomas in 2008. The couple keeps their private life quite private.
There are times when they appear at public events and then there are times when Amy mentions him on occasions like Father’s Day, calling him a great dad. But other than that, they are rarely seen together. To the point where people wonder if they are really together.
The last time they posed for a photo with their daughter was in February 2017. And then in June 2021, Amy took to Facebook to wish her father, Larry Keith Fuehrer-Sr., and Rodney a happy Father’s Day.
Both Amy and Rodney seem to be doing a great job as parents to their only daughter Grace, who came into their lives in 2010. And Rodney, even if he doesn’t share pictures with Amy now, one can still catch glimpses of him and Gracie on social media.
So while it’s unclear whether Rodney and Amy are still married, Amy tagged him in a June 2021 post in which she congratulated her “beautiful, brave, and smart” Gracie on getting through an incredibly difficult year and still excelling. Gracie appears to have graduated from Lessenger Elementary School, a National Blue Ribbon School.
