While the Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson drama might not catch Whoopi Goldberg’s attention, the rest of The View panel, including Alyssa Farah Griffin, Sara Haines, and Sunny Hostin, shared their thoughts on the polarizing age-gap relationship during Thursday’s show.
Haines highlighted a recent incident where Hudson confronted Belichick’s former girlfriend at a party attended by her two daughters. Despite being repeatedly asked to leave at the event, Hudson chose to stay, leading to the confrontation.
Farah showed support for the ex-girlfriend and her daughters, noting that even though Belichick isn’t their biological father, he played a significant role in their lives for 16 years.
“They’re 33-years-old, so the 24-year-old new girlfriend comes into a party where your mom is one of the hosts of, and they ask you to leave, I wont say it goes as far as Single White Female but it definitely gives social climbing,” Griffin claimed.
Haines agreed, adding, “That’s the one thing Bill can’t give her. She has to earn that on her own.”
But Hostin had an interesting take to share as a self-described “child of divorce.”
“I have a different take that’s gonna shock everybody,” she announced.
Hostin admitted that she was “terrible” to anyone her parents dated because it made her “uncomfortable.” But she said she has since come to terms with it as she and her parents have gotten older. “If my father met a 24-year-old that made him happy and he had this kind of companionship, I don’t know if I would be offended by it,” she said.
Her View co-hosts pressed her further to ask if she would feel the same way if the 24-year-old in question “came for your mom” or was after his last will.
Hostin did not back down but she did point out, “It’s probably hard for his children because, I will say, they are all older than his girlfriend.”
“But is she a kidney donor match?” Joy Behar fired back.
The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
