Sunny Hostin “almost died” from a walnut allergy while filming Wednesday’s episode of “The View.”
During a segment with Debbie Matenopoulos, who was promoting her new Greek cookbook, the “View” co-host’s chowed down on cuisine as they interviewed her.
“As I’m eating the food, Alyssa asks, ‘Are those walnuts in here?’ And she says ‘Yes.’ So I panic immediately,” Hostin recalled on Friday’s episode, adding that the food was “wonderful,” but she has a “terrible allergy to walnuts.”
She immediately wrote a “death note” to co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin who can be seen in the clip mouthing, “Oh, no!”
“And I’m looking at [executive producer] Brian [Teta] and he’s like, ‘Is everything OK?’ No, it’s not,” she recalled as a clip of her shaking her head no showed.
Hostin, 56, was able to finish filming the segment before on-staff doctors rushed out to help.
Close call!
