On Thursdayâs episode of The View, the hosts got on to the topic of relationships after discussing Ben Affleckâs recent comments about his divorce from Jennifer Lopez on the cover of GQ. During the discussion, EGOT winner Whoopi Goldberg, who has been divorced three times, told her co-hosts that she âjust wasnât having any funâ in any of her marriages.

The group then talked about an op-ed piece written by a woman who said that after her divorce, she had ânew experiences and great sex,â leading Joy Behar to ask Goldberg if this was the case for her after her divorce.

Goldberg assured her co-hosts that wasnât the case. âIt had nothing to do with the divorce, I was just glad to get the hell out of there," she said during their discussion. âI was always having great sex; I just wasnât having any fun. So that's why I don't understand what [the op-ed author is] saying."
The 69-year-old actress is not shy when it comes to talking about her relationships or her sex life. One of Goldbergâs most notable statements about why sheâs okay with being single comes from a 2016 New York Times magazine interview where she said, âIâm much happier on my own. I can spend as much time with somebody as I want to spend, but Iâm not looking to be with somebody forever or live with someone. I donât want someone in my house.â

However, Goldbergâs feelings about marriage do not mean she has any ill will towards her exes. During an episode of The View in October, she said she still keeps in touch with all of her exes because they were her friends at one point. âIt doesn't mean that we talk all the time, but I will be respectful enough for you," she said during the episode. "I don't have to sleep with you, I don't have to eat with youâI don't have to do any of those things that a relationship forces. But I can be [friendly] because there's nobody that I've lived with or messed with that I absolutely hate."
