Not every co-host on The View has been a joy to work with. According to longtime co-host Joy Behar, she’s dealt with her fair share of “mean” colleagues at the Hot Topics table.
On this morning’s episode of the long-running daytime talk show, the ladies discussed a toxic group of friends played by Carrie Coon, Leslie Bibb, and Michelle Monaghan in The White Lotus Season 3.
However, Behar claimed she can’t decipher a “toxic” relationship because she had never been treated badly during her upbringing.
“I’m an only child. I was treated well as a child. I think everybody likes me,” Behar said, noting that she would rather “trust” the people around her. The comedian used her friend who had a “lousy upbringing” as a counter-example, pointing out that they can “spot people who are mean” because they witnessed it as a child.
“And I can’t. I’m like Shirley Temple. Tell them, I don’t remember who’s mean to me — even at this table!” Behar quipped, to which Alyssa Farah Griffin — who has clashed with Behar on several occasions — quickly fired back, “No one at this table’s been mean to you!”
Behar clarified that no one who’s on the show “now” has been mean to her, but reminded Griffin that she’s been there “28 years” and not all of her co-hosts have been the easiest to work with.
The playwright has infamously sparred with her Republican co-hosts, including Meghan McCain and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. The latter, who starred on The View from 2003 to 2013, recently took aim at Behar after she criticized Carrie Underwood for performing at President Donald Trump’s inauguration, telling Hannity that Behar’s comment was “nothing more than selfish personal publicity-gaining.”
The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
