The co-hosts were confirmed in the ABC show’s promo Thursday.
“If you think you know who will be here for our season premiere week, you’re about to be surprised,” the teaser promised.
Behar, whose tenure on the show has spanned more than 25 years, quipped that she “feel[s] like [she’s] been on since her prom.”
A subsequent Instagram post highlighting the six women gushed, “‘Your favorite women of daytime are back for season 30! The celebration kicks off Tuesday, Sept. 8 on ABC.”
Since the 29th season of “The View” ended in July, there have been rumors of a cast shakeup.
The Daily Mail reported that President Trump’s former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt was in talks to join the cast, a claim CNN debunked.
The outlet instead claimed the network had only invited Leavitt, 29, as a guest.
Former co-host Rosie O’Donnell sparked chatter by declaring on a recent episode of the “Tangle With Kyle Ridley” podcast that she would take part in the 30th anniversary special.
“They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think,” the actress, 64, said, clarifying she would take part “in whatever way” they wanted her “as a guest.”
However, a spokesperson told Page Six “nothing” had been “formalized” in that regard.
O’Donnell’s comments sparked an alumni meltdown over invites, with former co-host Michelle Collins slamming the show for not being invited.
Goldberg, the show’s moderator, gave rare insight into her hefty paycheck during the Aug. 4 episode of the “Baby, This Is Keke Palmer” podcast.
“You would be shocked,” Goldberg, 70, said without sharing her exact “View” salary.
