The View‘s co-host lineup was looking a bit thin this morning, with only four out of the five (sometimes six) ladies seated at the Hot Topics table.
While Joy Behar is usually off on Mondays, it was unusual for Sara Haines to also be absent from the episode. Instead, only Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Alyssa Farah Griffin, and Ana Navarro were there to break down the latest in pop culture and politics.
So, why wasn’t Haines on this morning’s episode of The View? And when will she return to the hit daytime talk show? Luckily, we have the answers to all of your burning questions. Keep reading for everything we know.
Haines was noticeably missing from this morning’s episode of The View. When her co-hosts settled into their seats at the top of the broadcast, Goldberg let the audience know that Haines was out on jury duty.
“They might pick her, too,” Griffin joked, while Goldberg added, “Well, let’s not wish that on her.”
We’re not sure when Haines will be back on The View. If she gets chosen for jury duty, it could be days—or even weeks—before she’s back at the Hot Topics table. But if she isn’t chosen, she will likely be back for tomorrow morning’s episode.
