Alyssa Farah Griffin is explaining why she's been absent from The View roundtable. "Hey guys! I've been down sick with a stomach virus but will hopefully be back on @theviewabs tomorrow," Griffin, 36, wrote via her Instagram Stories Wednesday, December 3. "It's no fun being sick while 6 [and a half] months pregnant!" She continued, "Remember it's that time of the year - be smart, use hand sanitizer, [and] stay home if you're sick." Alyssa, who missed several The View broadcasts earlier this week, announced in October that she is expecting her first baby with husband Justin Griffin.
