Ryan Reynolds decided to bring his mom Tammy along for a unique experience while she was visiting from their hometown of Vancouver. They attended the June 10 taping of ‘The View’, and it turned out to be a delightful surprise for everyone.

While the July 10th segment was underway, the show took an unexpected yet delightful turn when Whoopi Goldberg, one of the hosts, noticed Ryan and his mom sitting in the audience. The renowned Deadpool actor, 47, cheerily waved when Goldberg, 68, pointed him out to the audience.

“Sometimes you look up and you go, ‘Oh, this is really great.’ And then you look over and you go, ‘Oh snap, there’s Ryan Reynolds!’” said Goldberg, capturing the crowd’s jubilant surprise.

Asked about his presence in the audience rather than onstage, Ryan humorously remarked, “By the way, this is way less stressful than up there,” making everyone chuckle.

He explained that his mom, Tammy, was visiting her grandchildren and mentioned that it was her “dream to go to The View.” Ryan, who is often known for his playful banter, quipped about not wanting to challenge his mother’s wishes due to their long history together.

The Spirited actor made a couple of calls, prominently leveraging his relationship with his wife, Blake Lively, to make the visit happen. Tammy, who meticulously records The View back home in Vancouver, was absolutely thrilled by the whole event.

The hosts warmly invited Tammy to visit anytime and extended an offer to Ryan, suggesting he bring Blake along for a future appearance.

Adding to the delight of the day, comedian Jo Koy, who was a guest on the same episode, recognized Tammy in the front row. “Oh my God!” he exclaimed, acknowledging their shared connection from a past show in Vancouver.

The episode wrapped up in an iconic fashion as Tammy got to sit in Whoopi Goldberg’s moderator chair and enthusiastically delivered The View’s famous closing line: “Take a little time to enjoy The View.” Whoopi looked on, likely feeling quite amused by the moment.

The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. on ABC, always providing surprises and delightful moments like this unexpected drop-in by Ryan Reynolds and his mom.

While that concluded the episode of The View, it certainly was a memorable one for everyone involved, especially for Tammy Reynolds, who saw a dream come true.

So, take a note from Ryan Reynolds—sometimes, the audience seat can provide just as much joy and entertainment as being center stage!
