'I Got One Or Two You Could Have Of Mine!': Sherri Shepherd Makes Shocking & Tasteless Joke On 'The View' About Her Baby With Ex
May 29 2015, Published 12:18 p.m. ET
Sherri Shepherd made a cringeworthy remark about her 8-month-old child Lamar Sally Jr. on The View Thursday, joking she'd gladly give "one or two" of her kids away.
In the appearance, which marked the 48-year-old star's comeback to the ABC panel, Shepherd made the remark during a discussion over how millennials aren't rushing into parenthood.
When co-host Raven-Symoné mentioned she wanted to have children soon, Shepherd -- who's been embroiled in a legal battle with ex Lamar Sally over responsibilities caring for the child -- snapped back, "Girl, I got one or two you could have of mine! I'll give them to you!"
The 30 Rock star then backtracked a tad, clarifying her remark as, "Women with kids are like, 'Take mine!'"

But the fun didn't end there: The 48-year-old celeb also griped about her split from Sally when the panel was discussing divorces.
"Girl, don't tell me about divorce being expensive," she said. "I'll tell you about divorce being expensive!"
Shepherd, who also has a 10-year-old son named Jeffrey, had previously distanced herself from the baby, saying she "has no connection or responsibility" to the infant.

The harsh comments came a month after a Pennsylvania judge declared Shepherd the legal mother of the baby, who a surrogate gave birth to last summer, putting her on the financial hook to her ex Sally. The surrogate who carried and delivered the child, Jessica Bartholomew, had previously called out Shepherd on Inside Edition for not keeping her in the loop during her split with Sally, and her aloof attitude toward the baby.
"I just don't understand how she can act like this baby is nonexistent," Bartholomew said.
