Alyssa Farah Griffin Opens Up About Her Marriage And Family Plans On 'The View'

Let’s talk about love, life, and everything in between. If you’ve been tuning into The View, you’ve probably noticed cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin opening up more about her personal life, especially her relationship with her husband, Justin Griffin. The couple got married in November 2021, and since then, Alyssa has been sharing some pretty interesting insights into their relationship on the show. Let’s dive in and see what she’s been saying.

Who’s the Guy Behind the Scenes? Meet Justin Griffin

So, who exactly is Justin Griffin, the man who captured Alyssa’s heart? Well, Justin is no stranger to hard work and dedication. Back in 2009, he attended Clark University, where he not only excelled academically but also showcased his skills on the baseball field. These days, Justin is all about business, working as a communications consultant. But that’s not all—he’s also a board member at MassVentures, a venture capital firm that helps early-stage startups in Massachusetts get off the ground. Oh, and let’s not forget, he’s the principal at Merrimack Potomac + Charles, an advisory firm on the East Coast. Talk about a guy who knows how to get things done!

Love Stories and Thirst Traps: Alyssa Talks Marriage on ‘The View’

Alyssa Farah Griffin isn’t shy about sharing her love story with the world. During an episode of The View in February 2023, she revealed a fun little tactic she used to win Justin back after they briefly broke up during their dating days. “I love a good thirst trap,” she admitted with a laugh. “My husband and I went on one brief hiatus a few months into dating. We were doing long distance, and he broke up with me. I was devastated. But how do you get him back? Post a sexy beachside photo.”

And guess what? It worked like a charm. “He was calling me the next day, and we were back together within a few days,” Alyssa added with a smile. Now that’s what you call a successful strategy!

Fast forward to October 2023, and Alyssa made another confession about married life. She admitted to falling into what she calls a "tit-for-tat" relationship pattern, where she and Justin would list off their daily accomplishments to prove who was busier. “I’m guilty of that,” she said. Some of her costars, including Sara Haines, were quick to point out that it’s not exactly the healthiest way to communicate. “That’s not healthy!” Sara exclaimed. Alyssa laughed it off, joking, “I actually said to my husband: ‘Did you host a nationally televised show today?’ My poor husband was like: ‘What?’ I’m a nightmare.”

Family Plans: Is Baby on the Way?

Alyssa and Justin don’t have any children yet, but they’re definitely thinking about expanding their family. In September 2023, Whoopi Goldberg playfully asked Alyssa if she was pregnant during a live broadcast on The View. Alyssa was quick to respond, “No! Oh my god! You can’t say that when my mother-in-law is here, who’s been dying for me to get pregnant!”

“Why, do I look pregnant?” she asked Whoopi, who replied with a laugh, “Yes, I just got a vibe. I’m so sorry.” Alyssa then admitted, “I’m very open to being pregnant soon. I am not blessed to be pregnant yet. My husband and I are thinking about it.” She even joked about taking a pregnancy test when she got home just to be sure.

Later, Alyssa revealed Justin’s reaction to Whoopi’s question during an episode of The View’s “Behind the Table” podcast. “He thought, ‘This is an excuse to make a baby tonight because we’ve got to prove Whoopi right!’” Alyssa told the show’s executive producer, Brian Teta. “My husband clearly used it as a way to drag me to the bedroom.” She laughed, admitting that at first, she wasn’t sure how Justin would react. “I was actually nervous that he was going to feel like too much of our public business was out there because I did share that we’re open to getting pregnant,” she said. But it turns out, Justin thought it was hilarious and was flattered by the attention.
