Backstory
Fans have woken up with Rob Marciano as the chief meteorologist on Good Morning America since 2014. However, after being banned from the studio, he has officially been let go and will no longer appear on the morning program.
The Ban
In March 2023, Page Six reported that Rob had been banned from the New York City studio where GMA is filmed for the past year. He retained his job but was reporting from another studio or out in the field due to alleged inappropriate and aggressive behavior.
Inappropriate Behavior
Sources revealed that Rob’s ban stemmed from an incident of improper conduct for which he was punished, and he has not been allowed to return since. Additionally, there were reports of him making people feel uncomfortable with a series of alarming events. Allegations of anger management issues surfaced, possibly linked to his divorce.
Divorce and Departure

Fan Reactions
Rob’s Instagram bio still reflects his ABC association, prompting mixed reactions from fans. While some express anger over his departure, others support the decision citing workplace harassment issues.
