HER FRIENDSHIP WITH OPRAH

Gayle King and Oprah Winfrey have a friendship that has stood the test of time. They have supported each other through many of life's trials and tribulations.

Oprah gifted King, a live-in nanny when she had her second child. King made Oprah the god-mother of her children.

They have seen each other through controversies such as King's divorce from her husband after his sordid affair with another woman. The best friends have survived rumors, spats, and scandals over the last twenty years.

Besides standing with each other through difficulties, the ladies celebrate each other's successes together. They're so close many people have speculated that perhaps they are gay, but both parties adamantly deny it.

They've traveled to many places together including the city they both love, Paris. On their latest trip to Paris, King posted a stunning image of the two of them with her daughter ready to go to a party.

At the end of the day, both women agree that they don't care about any drama or rumors. They just want the best for each other.
