Co-host Whoopi Goldberg, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.syracuse.com\/celebrity-news\/2025\/05\/the-view-host-gets-surprise-on-air-smooch-from-comedian-i-love-seeing-you.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.syracuse.com\/celebrity-news\/2025\/05\/the-view-host-gets-surprise-on-air-smooch-from-comedian-i-love-seeing-you.html\">Joy Behar<\/a>, Sunny Hostin, and Sara Haines seemingly couldn\u2019t relate. But the topic struck a chord with Griffin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"AT7HMGWP5ZFW5ABD5AHQJE76OI\">\u201cI cry at work, but I hide it. So my bosses will never know,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"E4G7TU5DAZH4XFEN7JKHWG3PYQ\">Shocked by Griffin\u2019s confession, Hostin quickly asked: \u201cYou cry at work?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"AWS5EKX5O5CWZL5WUNH5SYKIL4\">\u201cI have cried at this job at least half a dozen times,\u201d Griffin replied. \u201cAre you kidding? Have you done this job?\u201d she said as audience members began to clap in response. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"DRXHMYOKNNEMFJMNCZ7E5HY2YA\">Her co-hosts seemed surprised. Griffin then referenced a scene from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.syracuse.com\/entertainment\/2019\/05\/the-simpsons-writer-from-cny-im-proud-of-upstate-ny-episode.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.syracuse.com\/entertainment\/2019\/05\/the-simpsons-writer-from-cny-im-proud-of-upstate-ny-episode.html\">\u201cThe Simpsons\u201d<\/a> where Bart Simpson takes his friend Milhouse into a cave and says, \u201cThis is where I come to cry.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"F25L6G6EZNA53FE6VED46IV7IA\">Behar asked, \u201cWhat did you cry about? Give me an example.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"E7XX6FFUMVC5TFZZW4LAKWXVCI\">\u201cThis is a very hard job to do and I oftentimes have the only opinion that\u2019s different at a table of five people,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"RUXAVKSLXZGYZL5DMOBCHHMSRU\">Griffin, a former White House aide to Donald Trump, typically aligns with conservative views. However, during the 2024 presidential election, she voted Democrat for the first time. <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/UB4QFJAKKVDL7OMFE4M6MKJXLQ.jpg\"  fetchpriority=\"low\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"2024 Disney Upfront\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"article__image-content\" height=\"600\" width=\"300\"\/>Alyssa Farah Griffin attends the 2024 Disney Upfront at Javits Center on May 14, 2024 in New York City.

However, instead of secretly crying in the workplace bathroom, she\u2019d excuse herself for a coffee run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"XVH6XDHRUZGA5PWXOXOEBPPIBY\">Griffin made it clear that even though she has shed tears due to work stress, she is still very happy working at \u201cThe View.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"PC5W5WPFCVBL3KIV7T6EWI5HDM\">\u201cFor the record, this is a great job. And Brian gives great hugs,\u201d she said, referring to the show\u2019s executive producer, Brian Teta.<\/p>\n<p>If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
