The View family is growing by one, as conservative cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin revealed live on the air that she’s pregnant.

The 36-year-old made the announcement Wednesday morning, confirming to her fellow panelists that she and husband Justin Griffin are expecting a baby boy in February.

Griffin’s announcement came after she had opened up in the past about fertility struggles and her multiple IVF treatments along her journey. Moderator Whoopi Goldberg teed up the announcement by introducing a Hot Topics segment about embarrassing moments.

“I’ve had a viral moment,” Griffin said, before the show played a clip of an iconic September 2023 incident that saw Goldberg randomly turn toward Griffin in the middle of a discussion to ask if she was pregnant.

“So, Whoopi, do you want to ask me again?” Griffin said, with The View audience applauding and her cohosts getting up to hug her amid the confirmation.

“I’m so overjoyed,” Griffin said. “I went through IVF, it was hard, it took us about a year, it took us five rounds, but he’s here, he’s coming!”

Justin said from the audience that he’s “hanging in there” and “couldn’t be happier.”

“This is a big moment for our family, a growing family, I should say,” Justin said, while his wife made an observation about the addition of a new boy to their family that also includes two male dogs: “At home, I’m going to be surrounded by four men, and then I come here and I’m with four women every day, it’s the perfect balance.”

Griffin has long opened up about her fertility journey, including several times on the show’s companion podcast.

“My husband and I have been hoping, trying to get pregnant for about a year and a half, and it wasn’t happening naturally, so we made the decision to move forward with IVF. This is my second cycle, so, tomorrow I will be in the doctor’s office dealing with that,” Griffin said on the Behind the Table podcast in December 2024.

“I wanted to share it for a couple of reasons,” she continued. “I had no idea at my age how hard this actually would be. I’m only 35 and, to me, I was like, I’ve got plenty of time, this won’t be that difficult. I’m healthy, I work out, I eat right. My body was just not cooperating.”

Griffin said at the time that she was so dedicated to staying on schedule during the IVF process that she gave herself “IVF injections at midnight at CNN on election night and working until four in the morning,” and “felt fine” afterward.

“I didn’t cry, I didn’t have meltdowns, I didn’t feel hormonal swings. I think I got kind of cocky, because, the second cycle, I’ve been a wreck,” she added, noting that Sara Haines and Sunny Hostin — who also went through IVF treatment — helped her through the process. “I’ve not felt myself, I’ve been tired, I’ve been emotional, you feel uncomfortable in your body. I just wanted to mention it because, from someone who is surprised by how hard it was, it’s because all the stories of this that we hear is usually women on the other side, like, ‘Here’s my baby and, oh, real quick, it was kind of hard to get here.’”
