“The View” co-host Alyssa Farrah Griffin — who is pregnant with her first child — has been off the show this week while she recovers from a stomach bug.
Griffin has been absent since Monday and let concerned fans know what was going on in an Instagram Story.
“Hey guys! I’ve been down sick with a stomach virus, but will hopefully be back on @theviewabc tomorrow 
,” she shared.
“It’s no fun being sick while 6 ½+ months pregnant!” she continued. “Remember it’s that time of year — be smart, use hand sanitizer, stay home if you’re sick! 
”
Her fellow co-host Whoopi Goldberg shared a message for Griffin on air Wednesday, telling her to “get better soon.”
Griffin announced she was five months pregnant with a baby boy in October. This is her and husband Justin Griffin’s first child after she underwent five rounds of in vitro fertilization (IVF).
“Baby Griffin is on the way and we’re just so excited — and terrified,” she told People.
“I’m so excited to be a boy mom, even though I’ll be outnumbered at home because we have two male dogs,” she added.
Alyssa praised her husband for his continued support.
“First and foremost, I have the best partner in the world,” she gushed. “Like they say, marry your best friend, and Justin is mine.”
“‘The View’ is hard work, and luckily I had the flexibility of the schedule to make early morning appointments in Midtown before racing to do the show,” she continued. “And my husband, he was there for me throughout it all, by my side at the doctor’s, right there with me.”
Meanwhile, Justin told the outlet that he “always wanted to be a father.”
Alyssa shared a sweet photo of Justin touching her baby bump on Instagram earlier this month.
“Grateful for our growing family ,” she wrote.
The couple has been married since November 2021. Their baby boy is due in February 2026.
