Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King candidly addressed the lesbian rumors that have followed their friendship for yeaaaaars.
The besties discussed their friendship in depth as guests on “Moments That Make Us,” hosted by Melinda French Gates, on Wednesday, July 24.
Oprah said, “I think we’ve shared pretty much everything and I would have to say, it wasn’t even a matter of navigation.”
“You know, for years, people used to say we were gay, and listen, we were up against that forever. And people still may think it,” she added.
Gayle King chimed in to share that she encouraged Oprah to do a show about it to shut down the rumors.
“I used to say Oprah, ‘You gotta do a show on this, because it’s hard enough for me to get a date on Saturday night with people thinking we’re gay,” she said.
Gayle added, “Because if we were gay, we’d tell you!”
Oprah Winfrey also shared the secret sauce to her unbreakable friendship with Gayle.
The reason why I think our friendship has worked is because Gayle is happier, not happy, but happier for me for any kind of success or victory or challenge I get through than I am for myself.
And I feel as happy as she does — I can’t be happier than, cannot surpass Gayle. You cannot out-happy her.
I am equally as happy for her.

It’s really low-vibrational to assume two really good friends – whether male or female – are gay.
