Sara Haines and her View co-hosts
Who is Sara Haines?
Sara Haines is a television host and journalist.

The mom-of-three returned to the show after two years
Sara co-hosted ABC’s daytime spinoff, GMA 3: Strahan, Sara & Keke, after her departure from The View, but the show was canceled.
She is a native of Newton, Iowa, and resides in New Jersey with her family.
When did she return to The View?
Sara returned to the daytime talk show for Season 24, which premiered September 8, 2020.
Sara confirmed the news on Instagram, uploading a picture of her holding a View mug on her couch with her two children.
In a press release put out by the network, Sara continued that she grew up watching The View, and admires “what this show stands for — different women, different backgrounds and different points of view” and that it’s content “just speaks to my soul.”
“I feel like I caught a shooting star twice,” she said.
“To once again be a part of the dialogue where I can share, discuss, and disagree alongside these powerful and strong women is a tremendous honor. I feel very lucky.”
Having grown up in the Midwest, Sara has described her views as “extremely conservative.”
She said they turned more middle-of-the-road after her college years. She attended the liberal Smith College, and her brother came out as gay, turning her political views into a “melting pot of beliefs.”
The current lineup includes Haines, Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro, and Meghan McCain.
The View airs weekdays at 11 am on ABC.
