Friday’s episode was pre-recorded, which left fans confused as to where the beloved hosts went.
Viewers flocked to X, formerly Twitter, to speculate where the stars could be.
“Is it Spring break on The View?” asked one confused fan.
“Yep, pre-recorded today. They’ll be off next week. As I’ve said, I think because it’ll be Spring Break there,” replied another.
“Let me guess. This is the start of their Spring Break, and they couldn’t even finish out the week for the viewers? The recorded Fridays are getting old!” complained a third.
“So it’s not live! But I did say how sometimes they go on Spring Break around this time, wondering if it was gonna be new, but my guide says it is,” concluded a fourth.
The View is off television next week but will return on April 29.
This was not the first time The View has concerned fans, with rumors that regular host Whoopi will retire this year.
Fans theorized that Whoopi will soon leave her role as moderator and her co-hosts after 16 years after Wednesday’s episode.
While taping the Wednesday, April 17 episode, Whoopi, 68, appeared to be tired during the daily program, according to an insider.

“Whoopi walked into the room with slouchy pink overalls, a white dress shirt and clog shoes.
“She was very underdressed compared to the other hosts who were wearing dresses or pencil skirts,” the insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
Apart from her casual work attire – which is somewhat her regular go-to – throughout the taping, she supposedly came off as uninterested in conversations and “not in an upbeat mood compared to the others.”
“She was slouching and rested her head on her hand at times,” the source continued.
The View hosts

The View is an American talk show airing on ABC from 11am-12pm EST, Monday through Friday. It features a diverse group of women that discuss the day’s “Hot Topics”, ranging from hard-hitting news to celebrity gossip. The six co-hosts include:
“After she was done reading her note cards, she would rip them up into pieces and hand them to a crew member, which is something the other co-hosts weren’t doing.”
The hosts discussed several topics on Wednesday, including the Donald Trump hush money trial that is ongoing in New York.
RETIREMENT RUMORS
Whoopi started the conversation, but left her other hosts Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin to take over.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to ABC for comment.
Whoopi has previously addressed retirement rumors in an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun in October 2023.
“I’ve done nothing but retire. I’ve been retired my whole career, so I kind of like that,” she responded at the time.
“I have a contract. As long as I’m doing the contract, nobody’s mad.
“But I’ve been off on Fridays for years now because when we did that normally, I’d go to work and do shows or do whatever because I could travel on a Friday,” Whoopi continued.
