TST. MELT HEART MOMENT: The View studio exploded with joy when Joy Behar revealed the joyous news that her daughter Eve was about to welcome a new member to the family, and Joy would officially become a grandmother for the first time! The audience stood up and applauded, and Joy, always strong and witty, suddenly choked up and tears rolled down her face on air. “I’ve been waiting for this moment my whole life,” she said, her voice trembling, “and it’s finally here – a little miracle.” But the emotional moment quickly turned humorous when Whoopi Goldberg, her longtime confidante and colleague in the hot seat, approached and… hugged Joy from behind, shouting: “Grandma Joy is in the house!” Laughter echoed throughout the studio, Joy blushed, laughing and covering her face with her hands, while the audience chanted “Nana Joy! Nana Joy!” No one expected that, amid the hot topics and heated political debates, the show would become an unexpected celebration – where family joy was put in the spotlight. A genuine, warm, and rare moment in the world of television – where Joy Behar was not just a sharp host, but a mother and soon-to-be grandmother, living the happiest moment of her life.

“TEARS, LAUGHTER, AND JOY! Joy Behar’s Heartfelt On-Air Moment as She Confirms She’s Becoming a Grandmother — and Whoopi’s Reaction Steals the Show”

In a moment that had The View studio audience — and millions of viewers at home — reaching for tissues, Joy Behar announced the most joyful news of her life: her daughter, Eve Behar, is expecting a baby. The revelation came with laughter, tears, and a surprise reaction from Whoopi Goldberg that made Joy blush on live television.

For years, fans have known Joy as The View’s quick-witted comic and the panel’s fiery voice of reason. But on this day, the usually sharp-tongued comedian showed her softer side — and it melted everyone’s hearts.

A “New Member” Joins the Family

The announcement came unexpectedly during a morning segment. What started as a casual chat about family turned emotional when Joy, beaming from ear to ear, admitted, “Well, I wasn’t going to say anything yet… but there’s a new member coming to the Behar family!”

The audience erupted in cheers, immediately realizing what she meant. Her co-hosts gasped, with Sara Haines clapping her hands in excitement and Sunny Hostin covering her mouth in disbelief.

Whoopi, always quick to connect with her longtime friend, leaned over with a wide grin. “Wait, wait — you’re telling me you’re going to be a grandma?”

Joy nodded, laughing through her happy tears. “Yes, it’s true! My daughter Eve is expecting! Can you believe it? I’m going to be a grandmother!”

The studio audience went wild. Applause filled the room as Joy wiped away tears, visibly overwhelmed by the moment.

“It’s just… it’s surreal,” she said softly. “You know, I talk a lot — I always have something to say. But this… this news made me speechless for the first time in a long time.”

Whoopi’s Congratulatory Surprise

Of course, no touching moment on The View would be complete without a little humor — and Whoopi Goldberg knew exactly how to break the emotional tension.

As the applause died down, Whoopi suddenly stood up, walked over to Joy, and gave her an exaggerated grandmother’s bow — folding her hands like a proud elder and declaring, “Welcome to the club, Grandma Joy!”

The crowd roared with laughter as Joy burst into giggles, burying her face in her hands. “Oh my God, stop it, Whoopi!” she said, blushing. “You’re going to make me cry all over again!”

But Whoopi didn’t stop there. With a wink, she leaned into the camera and joked, “And to the new little Behar out there — good luck keeping up with your grandmother. You’re going to need it!”

Joy shook her head, laughing through her tears. “This is exactly why I didn’t want to tell you yet,” she joked. “You can’t keep anything serious for more than five seconds!”

The two women shared a warm hug, a moment that perfectly captured their decades-long friendship. Their bond — often described as sisters in sarcasm — shone brighter than ever, reminding everyone why they’re the heart and soul of The View.

A Tender Glimpse Behind the Humor

While Joy is known for her humor and quick comebacks, those close to her say that beneath the jokes is a deeply devoted mother and now an overjoyed grandmother-to-be.

“Joy talks about Eve all the time,” said one of the show’s producers. “She’s incredibly proud of her daughter — her intelligence, her creativity, her warmth. So when she found out she was going to be a grandmother, it hit her in a really emotional way. This isn’t just good news for her — it’s the start of a whole new chapter.”

Eve Behar, Joy’s only child, is an accomplished artist and ceramics designer who has largely stayed out of the public spotlight. But over the years, Joy has lovingly mentioned her daughter and son-in-law, sharing bits of family life with fans.

Now, with a grandchild on the way, Joy says she’s feeling “a mix of excitement and disbelief.”

“I can’t wait,” she said on-air. “But I also can’t believe I’m going to be someone’s grandmother. I mean, I already tell everyone what to do — now I’ll finally have a little person who has to listen!”

Tears and Cheers in the Studio

The emotion of the moment rippled through the studio. For once, Joy wasn’t cracking jokes — she was glowing, her eyes filled with genuine joy. Even the live audience, used to fiery debates and quick wit, fell silent for a moment before bursting into applause again.

Sara Haines handed her a tissue. “We’ve never seen you like this,” she said softly. “You’re glowing.”

“I know,” Joy replied with a laugh. “I feel like I just won an Emmy — for life.”

The segment ended with the entire panel raising coffee mugs in a toast. Whoopi led the moment, declaring, “To Joy Behar — the funniest grandma on television!”

Joy laughed, shaking her head. “I’m never living this down.”

A Beautiful New Chapter

After the show, social media lit up with messages of congratulations for Joy, celebrating not only the happy news but also her authentic, emotional reaction. Fans praised her vulnerability and humor, calling the moment “one of the most heartwarming things ever seen on The View.”

“Joy Behar made me cry today,” one fan tweeted. “Seeing her so genuinely happy and emotional was everything. Congratulations, Grandma Joy!”

Insiders say Joy has already started preparing for her new role — in true Behar fashion. “She’s been buying baby books, but also stand-up comedy ones,” a friend joked. “She wants to make sure this kid gets her sense of humor early.”

And when asked what kind of grandmother she plans to be, Joy didn’t hesitate: “The funny one, of course. The one who spoils, teases, and tells them the truth. That’s my job.”

From Comedian to Grandma — Still Full of Joy

As The View closed that day, Whoopi leaned over and whispered something to Joy that made her laugh through her tears once more. The moment — unscripted, heartfelt, and funny — summed up everything that makes Joy Behar who she is: a woman whose humor and heart go hand in hand.

Becoming a grandmother for the first time isn’t just another life milestone for Joy — it’s a reminder that joy (and Joy) only grows stronger with time.

As the credits rolled, Whoopi turned to the audience with a grin. “Now we’ll have to call her Grandma Joy on set,” she teased.

Joy threw up her hands in mock protest — but her smile said it all. She’s ready for this next adventure, ready to embrace her new title, and ready to share even more laughter with the world… this time, with a grandbaby by her side.
