It’s been just three months since Alyssa Farah Griffin welcomed her son, Justin Jr., but the The View cohost is already thinking about shedding those last post-baby pounds. On Friday’s episode, Griffin admitted she was “leaning into hot married boy mom summer” and confessed her goal: “I want every person who sees me to say, ‘You did not just have a baby.’”
That’s when Sara Haines reminded her of a pact the two made. “You promised to not talk about losing weight until you are done with breastfeeding,” Haines said firmly. Griffin laughed, responding, “I need the validation.”
Haines, a mother of three herself, wasn’t done: “Your body is doing everything it can for your baby. Stop talking about your body.” Sunny Hostin jumped in with reassurance: “And you look great.”
The playful body talk sparked a broader conversation about summer trends, including a report predicting this year’s craze: “Hot Divorcee Summer.” Joy Behar chimed in with her trademark humor, recalling her own post-divorce life: “I have to say, when I got divorced, I was very, very available… They were falling out of the trees. It’s a wonder I didn’t get a concussion.”
Ana Navarro asked how long she was single before meeting her second husband, and Behar admitted, “About like nine months later.” Hostin joked, “So you were putting yourself out there like a hot divorcee?”
Behar’s punchline had the audience in stitches: “They were so into me they could smell it. I spent more time on my back than Michelangelo… All I can say is thank God my mother is dead because she would kill me for saying that.”
From baby weight confessions to hilarious hot divorcee memories, Friday’s episode proved once again why The View keeps viewers laughing—and talking.
