Alyssa Farah Griffin, cohost of The View, welcomed her first child with husband Justin Griffin on Tuesday after five rounds of IVF. On Wednesday, the former White House strategic communications director, 36, announced the arrival of her son on Instagram. “Justin Patrick Griffin Jr. arrived late last night. We’re overjoyed and grateful for all the well wishes!” Griffin wrote in the Instagram story. According to The View cohost Whoopi Goldberg, 70, Justin Jr. weighs seven pounds and is 19-and-a-half inches tall. “Both mom and baby are doing well,” Goldberg reported, though she’s “sure they’re both tired.” On Monday, Griffin told her daytime cohosts that Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was so good that she thought she might go into labor then and there. She was only off by two days. Griffin missed Tuesday’s show as she was already at the hospital and will begin her maternity leave next week. Guest hosts will fill in for the new mother in her absence. According to the show’s Behind The Table podcast, those guests will include Amanda Carpenter, Sheryl Underwood, and Whitney Cummings, among others.
