Whoopi Goldberg has become a great-grandmother for the second time.

The 70-year-old star has revealed her grandson Mason Dean and his girlfriend Hylee Whitley have welcomed their first child into the world.

During Monday's (08.12.25) taping for The View, she said: "I'm going to start out today because I have some fun news from over the weekend.

"My family welcomed Lotus Dean to the world. She's 6 pounds, 3 ounces."

She added: "It's a wonderful thing. It's a wonderful thing. This is my second."

Her co-hosts congratulated her on the wonderful news, while Ana Navarro gave a shout out to Whoopi's only child Alex Martin.

She said: "Congratulations to Alex, who is a grandmother again."

However, Whoopi quipped: "I don't think about that, I simply think about myself. Cause I never thought I'd have two great-grandkids. To be there for that."

Her granddaughter Amara Syke welcomed baby Charli Rose into the world in 2014.

The Sister Act star was asked if her great-grandchildren have a nickname for her like "glam-ma", but she insisted there is no special moniker.

She explained: "No, they call me Whoopi -- cause I'm not the grandma! I'm the great grandma! So just Whoopi."

She did reveal that her first great-grandkid struggled with saying Whoopi, but she doesn't know if baby Lotus will have the same difficulty.

She said: "She couldn't say her Ws, so I was 'Oopi' for the longest time. So we'll see. But I think this one, she's ready to get stuff done."

When she first became a great-grandmother, Whoopi insisted after becoming a grandmother in her 30s, she wasn't planning to stick to convention.

Back in July 2014, she told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show: "I wasn't your normal grandmother, and I'm not going to be your normal great-grandmother."

Meanwhile, it turns out she got exactly what she wanted when she was asked what she'd like her then-newborn great-granddaughter Charli to call her.

She quipped: "She better call me Whoopi."
