Hosts of The View have received backlash from fans over flaunting of wealth at luxurious Bahamas resort, Baha Mar.
The daytime talk show is under scrutiny by viewers after cast members Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar and Sara Haines shared photos from Baha Mar Resort, where rates can add up to $14,000 per night.
Fans were quick to express outrage at the lavish trip.
“Those who are struggling to put food on their tables and gas in their cars can see a vacation spot first hand on TV,” commented one social media user.

“Such Privilege!!! Imagine all the homeless people you could have helped feed with the money being spent on this tropical circus. Shame on you,” read another tweet.
The extravagant trip served as a backdrop for the show’s 25th anniversary episodes, which were pre-filmed and will begin airing this week.
Outraged fans continued to voice their opinions at the oversight of the ABC show for hosting the reunion in a country that outlaws abortion, especially amid the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which was a topic of conversation on the show.
“The Bahamas, where abortion is ILLEGAL. Good call knuckleheads," replied one Twitter user to the show’s tweet regarding kicking off the week in paradise.
“Wait you guys go to the Bahamas where abortion is illegal?! 🤡” remarked one Instagram user, while another added, “Y’all are so ignorant that you are not aware that you took the show to where they have made ABORTIONS illegal. Annnnnd that is why the majority knows your cast and show are a JOKE!”
The 25-year-running program has had it’s share of controversies over the years, including when current cohost Goldberg and former cohost Meghan McCain got into a fight.
Recently, Goldberg found herself in hot water again when she was berated for using "foul language" on the gab fest.
"Sometimes you have to be an a** to be a parent," remarked the 67-year-old cohost.
"Whoopi and Sunny's [Hostin] foul language was a bit much today," one viewer fumed.
The show has had some turnover, as McCain, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Abby Huntsman and Nicole Wallace exited the show after rumors of bullying on set swirled around.
