"We have a big announcement," the ABC moderator jokes The post ‘The View’: Whoopi Jokingly Announces She’s Pregnant for Commercial Break appeared first on TheWrap .
The ABC talk show “The View” is no stranger to on-air pregnancy announcements. On Tuesday morning, it experienced another, but this time, it was all in jest. The segment concluded the day’s first Hot Topics discussion, during which the hosts criticized Donald Trump Jr. and his new wife for accepting substantial monetary gifts from a Russian oligarch to fund their wedding.
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg, as usual, teased the upcoming segment. However, this time, her announcement took a humorous turn. Goldberg declared, “I’m pregnant!” Almost immediately, she clarified that she was joking, and the real announcement would be a live taping of the show’s “Behind the Table” podcast. The joke did elicit a reaction from the audience and the cast.
This isn’t the first instance of Goldberg surprising her colleagues with a humorous announcement. In 2023, she playfully inquired Alyssa Farah Griffin about her pregnancy after watching a viral clip from the show. Farah Griffin had previously remarked on an embarrassing moment, mentioning a clip from “The View.” No new babies have joined the “The View” family just yet, but the future remains to be seen.
