The Sister Act star, 68, let slip her recent romantic encounter during a heated panel discussion about the backlash over the age difference between Anna Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine in their new film, The Idea of ​​You.

Whoopi confessed that age “doesn’t concern her” when embarking on a relationship, before shyly revealing her love story with an age difference of several decades.

“12 (years) isn’t that bad,” Sara Haines, 46, said during the Hot Topics segment, in response to the real-life age difference between Anne, 41, and Nicholas, 29.

“I dated a guy who was 18 years older than me,” she continued. “11 seems more acceptable to my parents.”

Joy Behar, 81, who married her long-time partner Steve Janowitz in 2011 after nearly 30 years of dating, stated that she “likes them younger,” noting that her husband is seven years younger than her.

“(Steve) drives at night, he does the heavy lifting, he’s very smart; when I’m old and decrepit, he’ll carry me,” said the veteran panelist. “I don’t want them old.”

After pointing out that Sara and Sunny Hostin, 55, were also married to younger men, the question was posed to Whoopi; who admitted that she has dated men both younger and older.

“I go from here to here,” he said, pointing with his arms at an expansive age.

“Because I’m not, you know…your age isn’t what will bring me into your arms,” ​​he said.

‘It’s not your age that worries me. Unless you’re under 18, in which case I can’t, I can’t at all, but, you know.

“A big gap could be problematic,” Joy mused.

“Because when you’re 20 and 40 it’s good and even 40 and 60, but now 60 and 80 is a little…” Joy explained, before Whoopi interrupted.

“Actually, I just have to tell you this, in one of the last relationships I had, he was 40 years older than me,” she revealed.

40? Is he still alive?’ Joy exclaimed, as Whoopi nodded.

‘Women have been asking me this for as long as I’ve been around: I’m not a lesbian. But I know a lot of them and I’ve featured them on television,” Whoopi said.

She continued, “But I’ve always had lesbian friends because they’re just my friends,” before recalling a conversation she had with one of her friends.

“I’m not going to kiss you, but I’m going to kiss you here, I’m going to do this but I’m not going to do this… And they’re like, ‘Okay!'” he explained.
