Sara Haines Finally Breaks Silence on Her Absence from The View—And the Real Reason Involves the Show’s Executives!
Why Was Sara Haines Missing from The View?
While Whoopi Goldberg made a whirlwind trip to Los Angeles for the 2025 Oscars to honor the late Quincy Jones, she still managed to return to New York in time for Monday’s episode of The View. However, as fans tuned in, they quickly noticed that another familiar face was missing from the Hot Topics table—Sara Haines.
Instead of the usual full panel, viewers saw Goldberg joined by Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin. Joy Behar, who traditionally takes Mondays off, was also absent as expected. But Haines’ unexplained disappearance left fans wondering what was going on.
What Led to Haines’ Sudden Absence?
The last time Haines appeared on The View, she and her co-hosts were joined by guest host Ariana DeBose when Joy Behar playfully tried to stir up drama.

During a discussion about The Real Housewives and a feud over salaries, Behar asked if anyone at The View had ever gone that low during an argument. While most co-hosts remained silent or flatly said no, Haines hesitated before giving a teasing “maybe.”
DeBose, sipping from her View mug, remained neutral, much to the audience’s amusement. But with Haines missing from Monday’s episode, speculation grew about whether something behind the scenes had led to her absence.
When Will Sara Haines Return to The View?
At the start of Monday’s episode, Goldberg briefly acknowledged Haines’ absence, simply stating, “Sara is out today,” before shifting focus to Navarro, who had dropped her notecards. From there, the conversation quickly moved into Oscar-related discussions, leaving viewers with more questions than answers.
There has been no official word on when Haines will return, but fans are hopeful she’ll be back at the table soon. Decider has reached out to The View for clarification on her status.
