Let’s talk about Sara Haines, the woman who lights up the screen on The View every day. But behind the scenes, there’s nothing she loves more than spending quality time with her three kids—Caleb, Sandra, and Alec. On Monday, July 22, Sara shared an absolutely adorable photo of her kids on Instagram, and it’s got us all smiling. These moments are the real deal, and they remind us of the beauty in family life.
You know what’s wild? Sara, who’s 46 years old, didn’t even need a long caption to make this moment count. She simply wrote, “Lately,” and let the pictures do the talking. And boy, do they ever. The snapshots show her kids enjoying their summer together, and it’s clear they’re having the time of their lives. No filters, no fancy setups—just pure, unfiltered joy.
In the first photo, her kids are standing together in the dining room of their home, arms wrapped around each other like a little family hug.

A Mom’s Journey: Sara’s Honest Take on Motherhood
Sara has been open about her journey to motherhood, and it’s a story that resonates with so many. She became a mom for the first time in her late 30s, and she’s got a unique perspective on the whole experience. “I got married when I was 37, and I’m having my second child at 40. People say I’m brave, but I say, ‘I’m not brave; I’m old!’” she told Glamour in December 2017. It’s that kind of honesty that makes Sara so relatable.
She remembers a moment when she was 28 and met a woman who told her, “If I could give you a piece of advice, it’s don’t wait.” Sara’s response? “You think this is a choice?” She knew she wanted kids, but she also knew she wanted to do it with the right partner. “I remember thinking how frustrating it must be for someone to always hear, ‘Do you want to get married? Do you want kids?’” she added. “We put so much pressure on people with ovaries. As women, you just get tired of people asking. I knew it came from a good place, but it definitely made me more sensitive.”
Planning a Family: Sara’s Wedding and Beyond
During an episode of The View’s “Behind the Table” podcast in May, Sara opened up about her wedding plans and how they intertwined with her desire to start a family. “I was very much on the baby train when planning my wedding,” she revealed. “I always wanted babies. Women carry this inner biological clock, and I was so worried that these eggs were scrambled because I was older.”
Max, who’s five years younger than Sara, had a different timeline in mind. “He thought he’d be single for another decade,” she explained. “But I said, ‘If we know we want to be together and we both want kids eventually, I don’t have eventually on my side, so let’s go.’” It’s this kind of determination and partnership that has made their family so special.

And then the next, I feel overwhelmed,” she admitted. “Just doing my best like everyone else.” It’s this authenticity that makes Sara such a beloved figure both on and off the screen.
