“Part of the reason she came to ‘The View’ is because we were friends.
We are still very good friends.
We are very close,” McCain revealed.
“I just talked to her yesterday morning.
She’s campaigning with her dad.
And all friendships have ups and downs.”
McCain also showed support for Huntsman onInstagramshortly after news of her departure from “The View” broke.
“Wishing my amazing friend and co-host @HuntsmanAbby nothing but the best on her next chapter!
@theviewabc is less without you and your light,” the caption read.
“I wish you, your family, & your father #JonHuntsman’s campaign all the absolute best.
He’s lucky to have you officially lead his team!”
As mentioned, McCain herself decided to quit “The View” in July 2021.
