The View's Sunny Hostin's surgeon husband Emmanuel faces solo battle in lawsuit as co-defendants agree to settle


The View co-host Sunny Hostin's surgeon husband has found himself in the hot seat in the massive lawsuit accusing nearly 200 healthcare providers of insurance fraud.

American Transit, which insures taxi company and Uber and Lyft drivers, announced last Monday that more than 141 of the 186 defendants named in the suit have agreed in principle to settle one of the largest RICO cases ever filed in New York. Sonny Hostin, co-host of The View with a background in law, later issued a statement to Page Six claiming American Transit 'used my celebrity status to start a disgusting media smear campaign against my husband,' and 'is harassing me and my family in a frantic attempt to not pay its bills'. As examples the insurance company claims Hostin – who is affiliated with several top New York hospitals including Mount Sinai and Lenox Hill – saw two patients in January 2023 who were involved in 'low-impact' collisions that should have caused 'no more than soft-tissue injuries'.
