Whoopi Goldberg Requires Assistance Getting On Stage?

Whoopi Goldberg required assistance to get on stage. She sparked concern among fans of The View when they noticed how she moved during a recent segment. Whoopi normally walks out after the rest of the panel at the start of the show. However, on Thursday’s broadcast, she needed a little assistance from co-host Sara Haines.

She warned Whoopi about taking her step as she helped her up. During the live show, the panel celebrated Whoopi’s birthday, which is on Sunday, November 13. They had a segment called “Whoopi’s Favorite Things.” However, fans were wondering why she had a hard time walking around the set.

The View — Whoopi Goldberg sparks concern

During the segment, Whoopi Goldberg explained that she wanted to share her “unique and wonderful things” with the viewers at home. Some of the variety of items included cookware to fashion and apparel items. Co-host Sara Haines grabbed Whoopi’s arm as they made their way around the table. She guided the comedian and helped her assist to the next item.

The two ladies discussed Alessi, which has useable art decor for the home. Sara warned Whoopi Goldberg about a step that was in front of them. She grabbed her arm again and said “Step Up” as they cautiously moved to their left. Towards the end of the segment, co-host Sunny Hostin stepped out and the women stood on a ledge that was six inches in height.

It’s hard to tell whether Whoopi Goldberg had trouble moving around the tall platform. By then, the show cut to a commercial break before they made their way back down. When the show returned, the hosts were already seated at the round table. The segment had fans worried about Whoopi’s health and well-being.

Till star talks about health problems

As TV Shows Ace previously reported, Whoopi Goldberg previously opened up about her health problems. Earlier this week, she released her new book, Two Old Broads: Stuff You Need to Know That You Didn’t Know You Needed to Know, which she wrote alongside Dr. M.E. Hecht. In the book, she shares stories about her health struggles.

“I had no idea how many annoying little things would start to happen to my body as I aged,” Whoopi Goldberg wrote in the book.

The 66-year-old joked that her knees make so much noise when she stands that she thinks they’re clackers. She also thought she “left her coccyx on the chair” when she got up from her chair. Her body has made so many noises, she’s unsure of what’s normal and what’s not. Whoopi learned that she has bursitis. She also joked that she has “a lot of ‘itises.'”
