Gayle King recently opened up about Oprah Winfrey relationship rumours.
Gayle King recently opened up about the long-running rumours surrounding her close friendship with Oprah Winfrey and how the speculation once took a real emotional toll on her.
In an interview with host Alexandra Cooper on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, King reflected on the years of friendship with Winfrey and the rumours claiming that she and Winfrey were secretly in a romantic relationship.
“Tell me how that feels when you guys have had to handle those headlines, handle those rumors, handle that speculation,” Cooper asked King.
“It used to really bother me,” King admitted. She explained that the rumours became especially difficult after her divorce from attorney William G. Bumpus in 1993, saying tabloids even suggested her friendship with Winfrey was the reason for the split.
