Whoopi Goldberg signs four-year deal with ABC to stay on ‘The View’

“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg will stay with the show for at least another four years.

Goldberg, who has been a mainstay on the daytime talk show for 15 seasons, has inked a four-year deal that will keep her on the program through its 28th season, The Hollywood Reporter first reported.

ABC News declined to comment on the reported deal. 

“The View” began its 25th season earlier this month, with Goldberg serving as a co-host alongside Joy Behar, Sara Haines and Sunny Hostin, as well as a rotating cast of right-of-center hosts in the fifth chair on the show’s set.

In July, at the end of the show’s previous season, Meghan McCain, the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and the lone conservative voice on the program, announced she would leave the program to pursue other professional opportunities and focus on her family. 

Goldberg has often sparred with McCain and other conservatives who have appeared on the program over the last 15 seasons. 

During one especially heated discussion that took place on the show just days after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former President Trump, Goldberg issued a scathing rebuke of the people who have cast doubt on the integrity of the 2020 election. 

“Grow the pair for him that he can’t grow for himself,” Goldberg said on Jan. 9, referring to Trump. “Because this is ridiculous, you’re not sure that he won. You’re bringing into question all these Americans who voted legally, came out and stood and voted. How dare you question it?”
