Remaining since its 1997 premiere, Joy Behar is the sole original co-host on The View. During a discussion about NFL retirements, she shared thoughts on her eventual departure and what she'll miss most.

“He sounds more upset that he’s leaving his friends,” Behar pointed out after listening to Kelce’s retirement announcement. “When I leave this show, it will not be because I’m worried about my future. It’ll be because I will miss my friends. That’s basically it.”

Behar's touching words made her co-hosts on The View emotional. Sunny Hostin reached out to show comfort, while Sara Haines got up to give her a big hug.

“I love when you say that,” Haines said, with Alyssa Farah Griffin adding, “The good news is you can never leave us.”

Behar joined The View from the start and left after Season 16 in 2013. She returned to Season 19 in 2015 after changes in the show's direction. Kelce, retiring from the NFL, spoke emotionally about his time with the Philadelphia Eagles teammates.

“I’d like to thank my teammates, my other brothers. Oh, how I’ve drawn my strengths from you all,” he said. “I was fortunate to play with great players, some of the best in this league has to offer. But it was really off the field, just sitting in the cafeteria with my teammates, breaking bread and talking about life—those were some of the most meaningful times I spent in my career. The NFL is truly like no other place and, at the same time, represents America as a whole like no other.
