“Three’s Company” star Suzanne Somers revealed that the late Barbara Walters asked her to co-host the early days of “The View” as she explained why she walked away from that opportunity and has “never looked back.”
During Wednesday’s episode of the podcast, “Behind the Velvet Rope with David Yontef,” the 76-year-old actress said Walters, who founded the show in 1997, asked her to relocate to New York to help launch the series, Page Six reported.
“I was originally asked to be on the original ‘View’ with Barbara Walters and whoever else, and I turned it down,” Somers said.
