LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ‘The View’ host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who recently had a heated on-air argument with co-host Sunny Hostin, celebrated her 34th birthday in a private weekend getaway to Colorado with her husband, Justin Griffin, and her six friends.

The daytime talk show host Alyssa Farah Griffin's birthday was actually on Thursday, June 15. However, the political strategist wrapped up her talk show duties before heading out for her big weekend. While she enjoyed her trip with her friends and her husband Justin, her co-stars from ‘The View’, Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar, and Sara Haines were notably absent. None of them seemed to join Griffin as nobody appeared in any of the photos or videos from her getaway.

Alyssa Farah Griffin’s 34th birthday in Colorado

The newly-turned 34-year-old ‘The View’ host, Alyssa Farah Griffin spent her weekend in Aspen with her husband Justin Griffin and a few friends. The group attended the 40th Food & Wine Classic which is usually open from June 16 to June 18. Griffin shared a picture on her Instagram story on Friday, June 16, featuring the eight samples of white wine. She captioned the shot, “Birthday weekend kick off!!  Aspen Classic”. She shared multiple shots from her getaway and also posted a video showing off the outdoor gathering, where comfortable seating areas had been arranged and tens had been set up and offered a variety of food and drink options.

Earlier last week, ‘The View’ host had a nasty on-air fight with co-host Sunny Hostin, who didn’t appear in any of her photos and neither did Griffith's other co-hosts. Instead, Griffin, attired in a red patterned dress and knee-high brown boots, was joined by her husband Justin and six friends. They gathered in front of a prominent Food & Wine sign, with a bustling tent in the background where many people were seen sampling various products. She captioned the post, “The best birthday celebration at Aspen Food & Wine with amazing people!”

‘Alyssa’s Birthday Pawty’

Although Griffin’s co-stars didn’t join her on her birthday getaway, they did help her celebrate with a special segment honored to her on Thursday, June 15. The banner hanging on the back of the panel stated, ‘Alyssa’s Birthday Pawty’, as they switched up the set entirely, removing the tables to make room for benches and covering the floor with fake grass. During her birthday segment, Griffin made her entrance to announce an exciting surprise. She revealed that they had arranged for several adorable puppies to join the show and that all the puppies were available for adoption. Goldberg then walked in on the set holding a four-month-old pup named Kali, followed by Hostin, Haines, and Behar who also had puppies. Suddenly, Griffin was surprised to see her husband, Justin walking in and she joked that he was “not up for adoption.” Justin sat beside her on the bench, wishing her a happy birthday and giving her a loving kiss.
