(SoapOperaNetwork.com) -- Kassie DePaiva makes her fifth appearance as guest co-host of "The View."
"One Life to Live's" Kassie DePaiva will become the first in a series of guest co-hosts on "The View" this week as regular panelist Elizabeth Hasselbeck begins her maternity leave. On Wednesday, October 24, DePaiva will join Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Sheri Shepherd on the popular daytime talk show.
With a due date of November 11, Hasselbeck leaves "The View" on Tuesday to begin her maternity leave. The 30-year-old Hasselbeck is married to quarterback Tim Hasselbeck, who recently signed with the Arizona Cardinals. The move forced Hasselbeck to leave "The View" earlier than anticipated; she had originally intended on working right up until the due date.
Hasselbeck recently told OK! Magazine that "I have to take early maternity leave so that I can get there and actually introduce the doctor to my parts, before she pulls a child out of me. But I'll be back, after the hiatus." This marks the second child for the Hasselbecks, who also have atwo-year-old daughther named Grace; they have decided not to find out the sex of the baby before it is born.
