Barbara Walters' Relationship With Other Hosts Of The View Explained

May 2024 ยท 1 minute read

On Sunny Hostin's 51st birthday, she marveled at the accomplishments she'd achieved so far in life. With a memoir and a fiction series on the way, Hostin's humble past was yesterday's news. "I'm blessed," the lawyer turned TV personality said on that day's episode of "The View." "I've worked really hard. And I had a hard life. ... I feel like if I can be sitting here, I hope that it's an inspirational story 'cause that means anybody can be sitting here."

Following Barbara Walters' death, Hostin shared a piece of advice that the late great host gave to her when she joined "The View." "I appreciate the fact that she told me when people come and sit at this table, they're like a guest in your home, and you must treat them that way," Hostin remembered. 

This allowed her to extend grace to guests like former president Donald Trump's aide, Omarosa Manigault, who tested her patience. As Hostin recalled on an episode of "The Wendy Williams Show," "[Manigault] was nasty behind-the scenes, she was nasty on the set, she was nasty afterward. She was just nasty, nasty, nasty, nasty." Needless to say, Walters' words of wisdom came in handy.
