Meghan McCain, daughter of late U.S. Senator John McCain, is clapping back after she was fat-shamed by a guest on Tucker Carlson this week while nine months pregnant.

During his December 3 episode, Carlson hosted far-right commentator Milo Yiannopoulos in a bizarre episode titled, 'Why Are You Gay? Milo Yiannopoulos Explains.'

About an hour into the episode, Yiannopolous questioned if there was 'anything gayer than John McCain's bloodlust' as they both spoke about 'closeted gays' in right-wing media. 

Yiannopoulos said that Meghan was 'the fat friend,' also labeling her as 'fat' and 'crazy,' while Carlson listened. 

On Thursday night, the former The View host responded to the clip on X (formerly Twitter), slamming the comments.

'I am aware on the most recent episode of Tucker Carlson's show a subject of conversation with his guest was my weight - particularly how fat I am,' Meghan began.

'Yes, I am very fat, I'm almost nine months pregnant with my third child. I am also very happy. I don't care how many times Tucker talks about being a Christian, that is not Christian behavior to engage in such a conversation on one of the largest podcasts in the world,' her post continued.

'This kind of meanness to women and hypocrisy is a classic example of why the right has such a problem with women voters of my generation,' Meghan continued.

'Don't feel bad for me, people have been calling me fat since I started in media at age 22. It is old, lazy, tired. I don't make my living off of ugliness like that and truly can't fathom what life is like for anyone who does. It must be very dark,' she concluded.

McCain is expecting her third child this month with husband Ben Domenech. The couple already share two daughters, Liberty Sage, four, and Clover Jade, two.  

In response, many rushed to support her, including FOX News senior meteorologist Janice Dean.

'Love you. You are beautiful,' Dean wrote.

Someone else typed, 'I'm with you on this Meghan- it's not only mediocre, unfunny humor, it's just mean. A few others do it as well, (looking at you Gutfeld) and it always stings a bit.'

'It's a problem for society in general. I don't get it. Keep being you,' another wrote.

In the past, McCain has opened up about weight and body-shaming, even speaking about Ozempic during an episode of her podcast, Citizen McCain, in May 2024. 

'I can't tell you how often people bring it up to me,' McCain said at the time.

'How often people message it to me...I do not want to go on a medication that, A, I don't feel like I need, and I don't because I'm healthy. I've had a physical in January this year,' she explained.

'And, B, like, I just don't want to put a test drug in my body to fit someone else's standards, and I can't believe the amount of pressure I still feel,' McCain shared.

In 2023, McCain also expressed a similar sentiment in a column for Daily Mail.

She wrote the piece just four weeks after she had given birth to her second daughter, claiming that people were already urging her to take the drug.

McCain wrote at the time:

'Now, I understand some people legitimately struggle with obesity and need Ozempic. But I am not one of those people.

'Which is why I have been really astonished by how many, from casual friends to industry acquaintances, have brought it up with me.

'I'm told 'everyone is doing it,' as if that was ever a compelling case. I hear 'just take the shot', as it has become known in shorthand. I was even offered a black-market freebie by someone with 'extra shots at home.'

'Well, let me make one thing very clear. I'm not taking it. I refuse.'
