Sara Haines shocked her fellow co-hosts on The View after she revealed that she follows one of her husband’s exes on Instagram.
Haines shared the news while The View hosts were discussing the benefits of communication in a relationship on Thursday.
“Well, communication apparently is the key to a good relationship — I wouldn’t know — but a therapist told USA Today that there’s a big difference between keeping something private from your partner and keeping secrets from them,” said the famously single Whoopi Goldberg.
She went on to give an example provided by the therapist, noting that it’s acceptable to “keep your memories of great sex with an ex private,” but that if you still have feelings for that ex, it becomes a potentially troublesome secret.
“Okay,” Goldberg added. “This is why I don’t have a relationship — because this is too much for me.”
Barely able to keep a straight face, Goldberg went on to ask her co-hosts if they struggle to determine what they should share with their partners and what they should keep private.
