Announced couple as well (3)
I believe the answer is:
too
'as well' is the definition.
(I know this)
'announced couple' is the wordplay.
'announced' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'couple' becomes 'two' (a couple can mean two of something).
'two' sounds like 'TOO'.
(Other definitions for too that I've seen before include "Excessively" , "Moreover, in addition" , "On top - also" , "Unduly" , "Also; overly" .)
