Quite a lot of co-hosts have come and gone within the 28 years that Pleasure Behar has been on The View, and also you don’t have to observe the ABC staple every single day on the 2025 TV schedule to know that a few of the present’s robust personalities have clashed. Behar might get together with the ladies who sit alongside her on the desk now, however she hinted that hasn’t at all times been the case.
In a February episode of The View that re-aired just lately (no, Whoopi Goldberg and Pleasure Behar haven’t been fired; the present simply took a short hiatus), the co-hosts had been discussing the feminine friendship storyline from The White Lotus Season 3. They mentioned whether or not or not rising up with siblings made yet one more prone to at all times really feel in competitors with these round them. Behar mentioned as an solely baby, she doesn’t acknowledge “poisonous” conduct towards her, telling her colleagues:
I don’t keep in mind who’s imply to me, even at this desk.
This prompted Alyssa Farah Griffin — one of many conservative voices added to The View in 2022, who has bumped heads with Pleasure Behar plenty of occasions — to protest that “nobody at this desk has been imply to you,” to which Behar replied:
Not now. I’m right here 28 years.
She makes a superb level, no less than so far as Alyssa Farah Griffin is worried, as a result of there have been positively moments within the 25 years previous to Griffin and Ana Navarro formally becoming a member of the solid of co-hosts that tensions rose between Behar and another person sitting on the desk.
The co-hosts didn’t linger on the subject, so no names had been dropped as to who Pleasure Behar may need been considering of. My thoughts, nonetheless, instantly went to Meghan McCain, who continues to have beef with the Emmy-winning daytime discuss present hosts years after she left The View.
The daughter of the late senator John McCain has mentioned it was a imply remark from Pleasure Behar that finally led her to exit, and a few of their on-air spats on the time obtained so heated that ABC’s head honcho needed to step in
After all, Meghan McCain isn’t the one individual whose persona or politics didn’t mesh with Pleasure Behar’s over time — and I’m not simply speaking about co-hosts.
Whereas it didn’t occur across the desk at The View, Child Rock famously known as the co-host a “bitch” on Fox Information in 2018. Behar additionally apparently had a “private” concern with the Jersey Shore solid members and allegedly “cornered” Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi in a toilet and informed her, “You’re not Italian.” When the solid appeared on The View once more years later, Behar allegedly refused to participate within the phase.
And who can neglect The View’s Liam Neeson catastrophe? The actor might have been what some thought of a bit imply after the actual fact (and understandably so), after his look on The View revolved solely round Pleasure Behar’s longtime crush on him. The Taken actor mentioned he “wasn’t impressed” with the co-hosts’ conduct, and the phase was “only a bit embarrassing.”
We’ll should see if Pleasure Behar ever expounds on who she envisions when she talks about individuals being imply to her on The View, however till then, you’ll be able to proceed to observe the co-hosts at 11 a.m. ET weekdays on ABC.
