Rosie Rides for Team Babwa!

Even though they had some hard words when Rosie bailed on "The View" last year, it seems like Ro and Barbara Walters are waaaaay past that -- and now TMZ knows whose corner Rosie's in when it comes to Babwa v. Star.

Rosie's rep tells TMZ, "Rosie loves Barbara ... always has and always will." Tellingly, no mention of Star, who Rosie replaced as one of the "View" yentas when Star so bitchily ditched the show the year before.

Barbara told ET earlier today that she didn't know anything about Star's Wednesday bitchbomb.
