LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sunny Hostin has taken a lot of criticism and hate from fans of the show 'The View.' Hostin's behavior has ticked off several fans in recent months, and with the release of her new book ‘Summer on Sag Harbor,’ she may have to do some damage control. It looks like 'The View' and Hostin know exactly how to score points with the show's fans and viewers.

With viewers piling on 'The View’ and unimpressed by hosts, capitalizing on family and emotions is the best way to go ahead. Toward the end of 'The View' segment on Friday, May 5, Hostin's daughter made a brief appearance on the show, and they really do look like twins, but is that enough for fans to get back on the Sunny wagon?

Paloma sat in the audience of ‘The View’ supporting her mother and the co-hosts, as she eventually joined them on camera. She was called on stage after admitting to being a ‘Miami Heat’ fan and was soon introduced as Sunny’s daughter by Joy Behar. Even if Behar hadn’t introduced Paloma as Sunny’s daughter, the resemblance was absolutely uncanny as the two stood next to each other, looking like twins! It was also revealed at Paloma had celebrated her 17th birthday a day prior to this appearance, so it felt like the perfect birthday present for the teen Hostin!

Is Sunny Hostin trying to boost her reputation?

As mentioned before, Sunny Hostin could use some brownie points from ‘The View’ fans, especially since her new book has hit the shelves. What better way to get the fans to love her once again than to show off her daughter who looks just like her? Viewers do tend to melt at the sight of a mother-daughter moment. There’s no doubt that Hostin is a proud mother as she once told People magazine that her daughter Paloma had competed in the Junior Olympics in North Carolina in the 800-meter run category! Hostin also said, “Paloma does not like being the center of attention.” Times have certainly changed since, and it will be interesting to see if Paloma follows in the footsteps of her mother.

Sunny's socials are mostly about her books, interviews, and ‘The View’ as she keeps her private life shielded away from the public eye. However, after this positive appearance of Paloma on ‘The View’ maybe Hostin will be a little more candid about her life with the fans, and finally get those brownie points!
