Whoopi Goldberg: Actress Jokes About Her Failed Marriages On ‘The View’

Actress and comedian, Whoopi Goldberg’s rocky encounter with love has led to the development of some punchlines that have caused a stir online.

During a recent episode of her daytime talk show, “The View,” the 69-year-old star poked fun at her three failed marriages while discussing public relationships and divorce with her co-hosts.

The topic was sparked by WWE star Nikki Garcia’s comments about her divorce from “Dancing with the Stars” alum Artem Chigvintsev after nearly three years of marriage.

While responding to co-host, Rachel Lindsay, who is also going through a divorce, Goldberg candidly shared her experience, joking, “I’ve been married 100 times, and I could never get it right. You got it right for four years. Good.” She added, “Some people don’t get it right the first or second or even the third time. It’s not for everybody.”

She went on to add that in that regard before people feel like they are the only ones to get it wrong, they ought to remember that there is no guarantee of success of a marriage.

Goldberg, whose marriages to Alvin Martin, David Claessen, and Lyle Trachtenberg all ended in divorce, reflected on the complexities of marriage and shared her insight.

Reports say she has a 49-year-old daughter, Alexandrea, from her marriage to Martin.

In other news, music artist, Cardi B, has recently taken to Twitter Spaces to address a number of issues about various aspects of her life.

This follows criticisms from people who are surprised she is almost always at a party or an entertainment event and having fun.

The entertainer has been seen at a significant number of parties lately, and she has since been fighting off an impression that she is being irresponsible, especially since she is a mother.

“Yesterday was my last day going out to party,” Cardi B said on Twitter Spaces on Sunday, December 1, 2024, after critical fans saw footage of her going out in New York City over the weekend. She said that she’s only heading out on special occasions.
