‘The View’ Host Alyssa Farah Griffin Reveals She’s Pregnant With Her First Child—1 Year After Moving Into $3.2 Million ‘Forever Home’ in Suburbs

"The View" host Alyssa Farah Griffin has revealed that she is expecting her first child—a baby boy—with husband Justin Griffin, after enduring a heartwrenching battle with infertility that saw her go through five rounds of IVF in just two years.
Alyssa, 36, shared the joyful news of her pregnancy live on-air on the ABC talk show on Wednesday, using the opportunity to call out her co-host Whoopi Goldberg for asking whether she was expecting during an awkward moment back in 2023.
Replaying the clip of the moment—which, at the time, left Alyssa open-mouthed in shock—the expectant mother then leaned back, embraced her growing bump, and asked, "So, Whoopi, do you want to ask me again?"
Alyssa's fellow panelists erupted in excited shrieks before running around to hug her, while the studio audience began applauding the happy news.
But while "The View" host's pregnancy reveal was filled with joy, she revealed to People that her struggle to conceive was much more fraught during an emotional interview at her $3.2 million Bronxville home.


Alyssa, who is now 22 weeks pregnant, admitted that she had initially been reluctant to share the news because she was worried about the reaction from "The View" fans—particularly those who regularly "tweet ... milk bottles at me."
"But the only reason I haven't shared to this point is it was important to us to get through the 20-week appointment, which is the full anatomy, making sure everything's developing right because you're just higher risk, both with my age and with the infertility issues I've dealt with and [am] dealing with," she added.
"Most of my friends sadly have dealt with miscarriages, too, at some point. So we wanted to feel like we were in a safe place before we got too celebratory," she went on.
Despite her co-hosts' overjoyed on-air reaction to her pregnancy announcement, Alyssa let slip that she had already let them in on the news before that broadcast, revealing that they had been "incredible" in the wake of her announcement, particularly executive producer Brian Teta.
"I'd heard horror stories from friends of hiding their pregnancies late, and I'm very close with Brian. I was like, 'I need you to know that this is what I'm dealing with,'" she shared. "And he's been nothing but the most supportive."
Addressing the gender of her baby, Alyssa said that she is "so excited to be a boy mom," but joked that she's concerned about being "outnumbered" in her home, where she currently lives with her husband and "two male dogs."
"But wanted a boy first. I grew up with sisters, and I've always liked the idea of a big brother looking out for the younger siblings (because we both want two kids)," she explained.



Alyssa's pregnancy announcement comes after she and Justin made another major life change: leaving their New York City apartment to relocate to the suburbs, where they found their "forever home."
The former political adviser turned TV star revealed in September 2024 that she and her spouse were quitting city life, while looking back on how much her life had changed since they moved to the Big Apple from Washington, DC, when she landed her role on "The View."
Sharing an image of herself and Justin posing in front of the New York City skyline on Instagram, Alyssa wrote: "These kiddos are bound for the Burbs! I got a call in July of 2022 from Brian that I’d been named co-host of @theviewabc. My amazing husband agreed to pack up our lives in DC & move to NYC with one month’s notice!
"2+ years later we’re headed to our forever home in the NYC suburbs. Thanks for the memories, Upper East Side!"
Realtor.com® later revealed that Alyssa and Justin had snapped up a stunning mansion in Bronxville, purchasing the home through an LLC in July 2024.
Alyssa and Justin snagged something of a deal, paying just a hair under the asking price of $3.59 million for their home.
Located in Bronxville Village, about 15 miles from Midtown Manhattan, the four-bedroom, four-bathroom, 1924-era structure offers 4,000 square feet of living space. The home blends "classic charm and contemporary sophistication," the listing noted, with elements such as graceful archways, a sunken living room with a gas fireplace, and modern comforts.



Highlights include a chef's kitchen that connects to a breakfast area and family room, a dining room, an office space, a wine room, and a primary suite with a spa-worthy bath and dual closets.
Outside, the property perks include an "enchanting" English garden, a stone terrace, and mature plantings.
Six months after purchasing that home, Alyssa and Justin officially cut ties with DC when they sold "The View" host's sprawling townhouse for $1.8 million—just three weeks after putting it on the market for $1.59 million.
Alyssa purchased the pad less than one month before she sensationally quit her job as President Donald Trump's communications director during his first term in office, in December 2020. She served in the first Trump administration for 3.5 years.
The property listing described a "quintessential Georgetown home" that is "nestled among the most charming townhouses in the East Village."
The description also noted that Alyssa and her husband made several updates, including relining the chimney and "refreshing" the kitchen, as well as installing a new lighting system that "enhances the home's warm and inviting ambience."
Adding to that inviting ambience is a wood-burning fireplace in the "cozy dining room," as well as an eat-in kitchen that opens to a private patio, which is described as an "oasis for relaxation or entertaining."
