“Whoopi, do you go younger or older?”  co-host Sara Haines asked Goldberg.

“It depends on my mood,” Goldberg joked. “Because it’s about the person. Sometimes you meet somebody who is younger than you and… look, it would be perfect if everybody was well-matched and well put together, but they’re not. And you find it where you find it, and it may last a long time, or it may not.”

Goldberg then remembered a specific memory when she dated a younger man.

“Let me tell you why I stopped doing lots of things with younger folks,” she said. “I went out with a younger dude, and he said, ‘I can’t believe this.’ I said, ‘What are you talking about?’ He said, ‘I did not know that Paul McCartney had another band.’ And you kind of go, ‘The Beatles? You’ve never heard of The Beatles?’ ‘No!'”

The actress then continued, “So you have to know when you’re going younger, there’s a lot of information that you have to impart. And sometimes it’s tiring. But then there’s the other way where you’re like, ‘Yeah, you’re younger, but you look good! Yeah, you’re alright.’ So you never know.”

According to People, Goldberg has been married three times and has a daughter from her first marriage. 

Goldberg later married cinematographer David Claessen, divorced two years later, and finally married actor Lyle Trachtenberg and divorced after one year.
