Even though Meghan McCain has been off The View for months, Joy Behar just can’t help but keep their epic feud going!

Sorry gentlemen, I know, I started lactating on air, and crying, hysterical.”McCain explained that after the on-air moment, she went back to her dressing room and called her brother, who helped her decide that the show wasn’t right for her anymore.“I didn’t feel supported when I had my baby, and I didn’t feel supported coming back, and that was ultimately it,” she added.

Joy Behar has been on for nearly its entire quarter-century run, and the celebrated TV personality is opening up about the reason she's stayed with the program for as long as she has.The 79-year-old veteran TV personality sat down with ET's Rachel Smith to talk about the show's new co-host, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and she joked about what keeps her coming back to the show each season.«Money,» Behar says with a laugh. «And also geography.

Joy Behar is welcoming a new conservative voice to with open arms! On Thursday, ABC announced that Alyssa Farah Griffin, a former White House director of strategic communications during President Donald Trump's administration, will be joining the show as a permanent co-host — to the delight of Behar. The 79-year-old veteran TV personality shares with ET's Rachel Smith why she thinks Farah Griffin's time on will run a little «smoother» than that of Meghan McCain, who was a conservative voice on the show when she co-hosted for four seasons, leaving last year.«Alyssa has got a whole different personality. I think it will be smoother, frankly,» Behar admits to ET.

. Still, there was an intimidation factor during her time as a regular guest co-host this past season, and two of her fellow panelists stood out.The 33-year-old revealed to ET's Rachel Smith that debating Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin came with its own set of challenges. For starters, Behar is known for not pulling any punches, especially when it comes to her own convictions.

The View will announce not one, but TWO new co-hosts, one year after the departure of Meghan McCain.

Ana Navarro and Alyssa Farah Griffin will be named permanent co-hosts of The View, with an announcement expected on the show on Thursday.

Joy Behar is looking back at suffering at ectopic pregnancy.

In 2019, she became the Press Secretary for the United States Department of Defense, which she worked as until 2020.

Elizabeth Wagmeister Senior CorrespondentSunny Hostin is staying put at the most dramatic table on television.Hostin has inked a multiyear, multimillion-dollar deal to continue as co-host on “The View,” Variety has exclusively learned. The renewal deal will take Hostin through Season 28 of the ABC daytime show, which she currently co-hosts with Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar and Sara Haines — all of whom will be returning next season.ABC declined to comment on Hostin’s deal.As Variety previously reported, “The View” is expected to cast former Trump staffer Alyssa Farah Griffin as a co-host next season, which begins in September, filling the conservative seat on the panel that has been vacant ever since Meghan McCain left the show in 2021.

“pray for me” as she steps back into the embattled liberal lion’s den. Hasselbeck was “The View’s” OG conservative co-host during her 10-year tenure on the program, clashing with her co-stars and transforming the daytime show into a pop culture juggernaut. And while her return is currently being billed as “temporary,” fans are already calling for the Nashville-based blonde to be permanently reinstalled in the conservative seat that she singlehandedly created. It’s no secret that “The View” producers have been struggling to find the right Republican to fill said seat after it was vacated by self-proclaimed “mountain mama” Meghan McCain last year. Ratings have been sagging without a right-leaning co-host, compounded by embarrassing missteps from Goldberg and Behar — and Hasselbeck could help bring back eyeballs.‘Hasselbeck walked so Candace Cameron Buré could run so Alyssa Farrah Griffin could fly.’ABC will officially name the new conservative co-host on Thursday, one day after Hasselbeck’s return — and her team is only fueling rumors that she could be a contender. “This is the same woman who threw herself into the middle of the Australian Outback [on “Survivor”], survived 10 years at “The View,” and then joined the Fox News Team,” Hasselbeck’s rep told The Post. “I would say nothing is off the table when it comes to her taking on new adventures.”Meanwhile, an ABC spokesperson refused to be drawn on whether execs are looking to bring back the blonde on a full-time basis.
