ABC has announced The Hills villainess Heidi Montag will serve as a guest co-host filling in for The View regular and former Survivor: The Australian Outback castaway, who is currently on maternity leave after giving birth to her third child last month.

Montag -- who appeared on the cover of Playboy's September 2009 issue -- will serve as a guest co-host during The View's October 1 broadcast.

While Montag has previously appeared on The View three times as a guest, it has always been with her husband Spencer Pratt -- who will undoubtedly be a topic of conversation when she guest co-hosts.

Additional co-hosts who will be filling in for Hasselbeck while she's on maternity leave will include singer Gloria Estefan on September 29; former The View co-host Lisa Ling on October 5 and 6; Ugly Betty star Ana Ortiz on October 8th; and The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco on October 13; and American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi on October 15.
