Joy Behar Taking a Break From ‘The View’
Behar said she will miss two weeks for a Europe trip and rehearsals for My First Ex-Husband, while guest hosts fill in on The View.
- On Tuesday, 83-year-old Joy Behar announced her two-week hiatus from The View during the Behind the Table podcast, with her final episode airing May 28th before departing for Europe.
- Behar's absence stems from creative commitments in Europe: a week in Paris playwriting in cafes and visiting art exhibits, followed by performances in her play My First Ex-Husband at Boulevard Theatre in London's West End.
- Executive producer Brian Teta revealed Sheryl Underwood will cover two days, followed by Kara Swisher, with Whoopi Goldberg appearing Fridays and Ana Navarro filling additional days during the hiatus.
- Behar's May 28th episode marks her last appearance before departure, with her stage production featuring Jackie Hoffman and two British actresses as co-stars in the West End play.
- Despite the break, Behar remains committed to The View, having co-hosted since its premiere and missing only seasons 17 and 18, reflecting her philosophy that creative people 'don't resign, they just keep going.
