The TV star told her Twitter followers Amber Laign "had a restful weekend".

Roberts said last week that Laign has paused her breast cancer treatments due to "complications" with chemotherapy.

On Monday the GMA anchor tweeted a video message to her followers about recognizing their own gifts and talents.

Roberts had told fans: "I hope you had a restful weekend and we are so glad to be starting a brand new week with you with some."

GMA host Roberts, 61, said last week that even though Laign has stopped chemotherapy "for the time," the couple feels hopeful about the road to remission.

The anchor told Entertainment Tonight that despite the complications, "the prognosis is still very good."

"They're working it out. We're gonna figure it out."

Roberts said that she encourages Laign, who has been her partner for over 16 years, to stay positive.

"I'm just thankful that her spirits have been lifted," she said.

"Recently it was a little tough there when — because she just wanted to get through it and to have this wrench thrown in our way — but I was able to tell her, as most people [who] have gone through cancer [know], this happens."

Roberts is a cancer survivor herself; she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 and went into remission after treatment.

Roberts also battled a rare blood disorder called myelodysplastic syndrome that she contracted as a complication of the chemotherapy she received for breast cancer.

The disorder led her to take a leave of absence from GMA in 2012 to undergo treatment.

The TV personality told the outlet that writing her book helped her come to terms with the ups and downs that she and Laign had been experiencing.

"I was struggling and then I was thinking, 'Robin, you have this book. You're talking to people about their valleys and how to get out of it and so, why don't you just actually listen to your own words?'" Roberts said.

"I can handle this. I have the strength. I've been through this. I can help Amber. She's helping me, so I turned 'Why me?' into 'Why not me?'"

Laign was diagnosed with breast cancer at the end of last year, Roberts said in a video posted on Twitter.

"It's my turn now to be there for her like she was for me."
