Meghan McCain has had a difficult time returning to work following the birth of her first child, Liberty. The View co-host admitted that she had a “really hard time” rejoining the cast–and her one of her co-workers in particular did not make the transition any easier.
Joy Behar, another co-host, told McCain that she was not missed during her maternity leave, souring the new mom’s return to the show.
During an interview with Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, McCain explained, "It's been such a rough reentry back into The View."
"I had a really hard birth ... I had a really hard time getting back to work," she added. "I thought I'd be back by the election. So just like that process of getting back was a lot, and this past week back, with just the show the way it is and obviously everything going on in the country and the horrible, horrific attack on our Capitol — it's just been a lot."
Behar, McCain's co-host, did not make her return to work any easier, making it clear that she was not ready to welcome her back to the shot.
During one of McCain's first episodes back, Behar told the 36-year-old that she "didn't miss" her.
Meghan replied, "That's so nasty. That's so rude."
While speaking to Cohen, she referenced Behar's comment. She told him, "I missed everyone. Even if some people didn't miss me, I missed the show, we're a family."
"All these women were at my dad's funeral," she added. "We've been through a lot of s--- together, and I missed being on the show."
McCain continued, "I hope that we can all be examples, myself included, of where the country should go forward. Because whether we like it or not, I'm not going anywhere on the show, Joy's not going anywhere on the show — we all have to live an coexist with each other, just like Americans right now, which is a little deep for an answer, but we're all gonna try to coexist and I really wanna have us all move forward."
