Whoopi Goldberg was sadly forced to miss the latest episode of The View after falling ill.
Her co-host Joy Behar explained Whoopi's absence during Tuesday's episode as she offered the actress her well-wishes, saying: "Unfortunately Whoopi isn't here today because she's under the weather."
"She has a cold," Joy explained. "So if you're watching this Whoopi, get better."
Michael B. Jordan appeared as a guest on the show and also said he wishes Whoopi gets better soon, blowing kisses to the cameras.
Fans quickly took to Twitter to express their sadness that the 67-year-old was absent, with one person writing: "Feel better, Whoopi."

Whoopi was forced to miss the latest episode of The View (ABC)"Poor Whoopi," another viewer tweeted while someone else replied with a series of sad faces.
Whoopi was recently involved in a chaotic confrontation with a crew member of The View during an "awkward" moment in front of Liam Neeson.
The actor was promoting his movie MARLOWE and joined the panel on the hit-ABC TV show to discuss the project.
Conversation was already slightly dry as Liam looked noticeably uncomfortable when producers played dozens of clips of host Joy declaring her love for the film star.
Joy explained her co-host's absence (ABC)"I'm sorry, I'm speechless," Joy admitted after the videos were played in front of Liam. "How embarrassing when they put them together like that." Liam replied: "I know."
The room went silent as Whoopi looked down the camera and at the crew before saying: "Well I'm trying to figure... erm, yes?"
"Is that it," asked another member of the panel before Whoopi began shouting at the crew. "You keep throwing stuff up," she blasted.
"You don't tell me what I'm doing," she shouted as everyone looked extremely awkward. Crew were then forced to get involved, live on-air.
Crew member Brian shouted off-camera: "We've run out of time, but we do have more time with Mr Neeson."

All before Whoopi came back with: "Well then why don't you say that to him?" Some members of the audience gasped during the cringeworthy back-and-fourth.
The director nervously announced: "If you stick around we'll have more with you in a moment..." As it went silent again, some of the panel nervously laughed.
"We'll be right back," Brian added. Liam was then seen on camera looking around, seemingly wondering what had happened to his interview.
