THE View fans have praised Sunny Hostin after she shared photos of herself and her rarely-seen son Gabe from a visit to the White House.

In the first of several photos, Sunny, 54, posed alongside her son in a doorway with a photo of the White House above it.

The second snap showed her posing solo in a corridor inside the White House which was decorated to the nine for Christmas.

A third commenter wrote: "I love how you and your son had this wonderful opportunity. I hope it helps his dreams take flight as the world is his oyster..."

"The dress looks beautiful; handsome picture of your son; and that food spread. Love, love," a commenter said.
SUNNY'S SLAM
The mother-son outing comes after Sunny put Gabe on blast on live TV.
She revealed that she recently ran off one of Gabe's dates, claiming she had a specific reason for doing so.
During an episode of The View earlier this week, Sunny discussed a new reality show called Back in the Groove, which focuses on women in their 40s having fun with younger men.
Sunny was quick to shoot down the idea, noting that she would not be happy if her only son was dating someone much older than him.
The TV personality then revealed said she ran into Gabe out on a date with a woman who appeared to be much older than him, so she sent her packing.
”I just think it's so despicable, especially with a son who is about to be 21. I think he knows better than to bring a 40-year-old to my house," she shared.
“But I will say,” she went on, “that he doesn’t know enough.”
The host explained: “Because he recently went to the doctor to get some blood work, and then I saw him out on a date.
“And I was like, ‘Who is that?’ And he said she was a nurse that took care of him at the hospital.
“So I said, ‘Sis, you know he’s 20, right?’ She had to be in her 30s! I’m like, ‘Sis, and he just turned 20.’ Then she disappeared!”
'LEAVE THAT MAN ALONE!'
After Sunny put her own son on blast on the live show, Whoopi Goldberg tried to have his back.
The moderator disagreed with her co-host and yelled at her to "leave him alone."
Whoopi went on: "Leave that man alone! Leave your son alone.
"Leave him alone. You are just going to roll her in closer. Trust me."
"No. Oh no," Sunny countered back. "Some 40-year-old woman that wants a 20-year-old stupid kid like mine got a lot of issues."

Fans at home mainly took the moderator's side over Sunny's on the situation.
“Come on Sunny... let your son live already," one viewer said at the time.
