Joy Behar will be leaving The View.

The daytime talk show host’s contract is up, and she has told ABC that she will not continue with show, and rather focus on hosting a new interview show.

Behar, 70, has been on the show since it first aired 16 years ago.  When she leaves, the only original cast member left will be Barbara Walters.

Aside from The View, Behar currently hosts her own Current TV show called Joy Behar: Say Anything! which debuted in 2012.
