MYSTERY SOLVED — After days of swirling speculation, The View’s Whoopi Goldberg finally broke her silence and revealed the real reason behind Alyssa Farah Griffin’s sudden, unexplained absence — putting an end to the mounting curiosity and fan theories.

It’s unlike Alyssa Farah Griffin to miss one day on The View, let alone three in a row!

On this morning’s episode, Griffin was once again absent from her co-hosting duties, leaving Whoopi Goldberg, Ana Navarro, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, and Sunny Hostin to lead the charge on the latest Hot Topics. The last time Griffin was seen on the show was last Wednesday (Nov. 26), just before the Thanksgiving break, meaning it’s officially been a week since fans have seen her on The View.

It’s been a big year for Griffin, who announced at the start of Season 29 that she and her husband were expecting their first baby: a boy due in February. The Republican co-host has been open about her fertility journey, and the many rounds of IVF she underwent to get to where she is.

So, why was Griffin missing from today’s episode of The View? And when will she be back? Keep reading for everything we know.

Where is Alyssa Farah Griffin today?

Griffin has been missing from The View all week. While Goldberg has largely remained quiet about her whereabouts, the moderator finally shared why Griffin has been absent on this morning’s episode of The View.

“Alyssa is out sick,” she said. “We are awaiting her return. She has not been feeling well, so get better soon.”

When will Alyssa Farah Griffin be back on The View?

Since Griffin has been out sick all week, we’re not so sure when she’ll be back on The View. However, we hope it’s sooner rather than later! That Hot Topics table has been looking a little bare without her.
