Gayle King found her self in the middle of some criticism yesterday when she addressed Oprah’s absence from an episode of “CBS Mornings,”.
During spiel on air she shared some pretty intimate details about what was actually wrong with Oprah leading to a barrage of headlines about Oprah being “hospitalized”.
According to The Blast The 69-year-old disclosed that Oprah had been battling a severe stomach bug that had landed her in the hospital.
King did not shy away from providing more insight into Winfrey’s condition, describing it as “a serious thing.” Per TMZ, the TV personality shared:
“She had some kind of stomach thing — stomach flu — stuff was coming out of both ends. I won’t get too graphic. Needless to say, she ended up in the hospital, dehydration, had to get an IV, it was a very serious thing.”
Now Gayle is clearing the air again on Instagram.
In a new post with her bestie on video she said:
A first for @cbsmornings, announcing @oprah’s latest book club pick #Familiaris without Oprah! She was sidelined with a stomach virus that caused such dehydration that she went to the hospital to get an IV drip. I thought I made that clear but next thing I know I’m surprised to see headlines that scream “Oprah’s hospitalized!” (She was NOT!) And I’m bombarded with calls asking if Oprah is okay. The answer is yes! And now let’s go straight to the source.
