THE View host Whoopi Goldberg has made a rare confession about her past marriages.
On Tuesday's episode of the talk show, the panelists discussed marriage and divorce as part of a recent scandal related to Real Housewives of Miami.
Lisa Hochstein's estranged husband is reportedly marrying his mistress, Whoopi told the hosts, and everyone weighed in on the matter, including her.
"I was dancin' and prancin', I was so glad to get out of there," Whoopi said of a previous marriage.
"Every time, because I always knew, I always thought, 'You didn't wanna do this from the giddy-up', and you did it anyway, so shut up and move on," she added.
"Why did you do it anyway?" co-host Joy Behar asked.

"Because I thought I could make a round hole go into a square peg," Whoopi said.
"I thought that that was what was for me," she went on.
"You can't change people," Joy said, shaking her head.
"No, and I was never meant to be married, and I know that, and I knew that then, and I kept trying to do what everybody said what I was supposed to."

"And then I said, 'You know what? This is getting expensive and boring,'" the actress shared.
Whoopi has been married (and divorced) three times, once to Alvin Martin in 1973, David Claessen in 1988, and Lyle Trachtenberg in 1995.
Whoopi has one child, Alexandrea Martin, who she had with her first husband.
CAME TO PLAY
Meanwhile, Whoopi showed off a whole new side of herself in a rare new photo on social media.
The View host traded her usual sweaters and sweatshirts for a funkier upscale look, thanks to a designer friend.
On Thursday, Whoopi posted an Instagram photo of herself and Christian Siriano.
She had on a white-and-black, patterned, jacket-style tunic with extremely-puffed sleeves.
The TV personality topped off the look with a pair of dressy black pants and pointed-toed shoes.
Christian grabbed onto one of Whoopi’s arms as she posed with her hands on her hips.
Behind them sat racks of various other outfit choices for the View star.
“Today I’m playing with the fabulous @csiriano,” Whoopi captioned the post.
The designer also shared the photo, along with another, closer snap of the two of them smiling at the camera, on his own Instagram.
In his caption, Christian wrote: “Fittings with an ICON just hit different!
“Love you Whoopi so much. Been creating looks for you for 15 years."
WOAH, WHOOPI!
A few months ago, Whoopi shocked fans with another change to her appearance, this one thanks to an operation.
In March, viewers immediately noticed the 67-year-old wasn't wearing her usual glasses while moderating The View.
Whoopi's co-star, Sunny Hostin, was the first to point out the change-up, prompting the actress to discuss her recent procedure.
"I had an operation, and they replaced the lens," the moderator began, pointing to her left eye.
"And the lens they replaced it with is kind of like my eyeglass lens."
Sunny excitingly commented, "You can see!" to which the audience applauded the star.
Whoopi then referenced a previous episode where she had trouble reading the teleprompter without her glasses, forcing her to put them on.
Her co-hosts were very interested in the procedure and chimed in with questions for the host.
Fellow panelist Ana Navarro asked Whoopi to clarify that her surgery differed from cataract surgery, to which the TV star agreed.
She further explained that the lens was replaced using "teeny tiny cataracts," enabling her to regain her eyesight.

The Ghost actress continued to boast about the procedure, holding up a pamphlet to encourage others to get it if necessary.
"If you're having any issues with your eyes, please go get them checked because, you know, the bionic times have arrived," Whoopi joked while addressing the audience.
