Whoopi Goldberg made her return to The View on Tuesday (June 29) along with what she calls her new “best friend”.
The 65-year-old entertainer and host of the morning talk show took a break from the show for some health issues and returned alongside the walker to help alleviate her sciatica.
“Yes, it’s me, I’m back,” she shared. “I was out because I was dealing with something called sciatica, which is basically a bulging disc in your back and it impacts the sciatic nerve, which sends pain down your leg.”
She then explained that she’s been using a walker to help her get around and held up the device to the camera for her fellow co-hosts to see.
“I have a walker, which kind of freaks me out I didn’t know that I needed it,” Whoopi continued, adding that after taking the “first step with the walker, this my new best friend.”
“I’m just gliding along,” she joked. “So that’s what happened to me. I was told it comes out of nowhere.”
