Oprah and Stedman’s ‘fake’ date

The couple step out together at last — but fail to stop the whispers about their relationship.

Oprah Winfrey and long-time boyfriend Stedman Graham made a rare public appearance together last week, but their decidedly odd body language left many Hollywood insiders wondering about the state of their 22-year romance.

While a high-spirited Oprah beamed and giggled as she mingled with A-list stars, including Will Smith and Sidney Poitier, at the opening of an Atlanta TV and film studio, Stedman appeared distant and uninterested — sparking questions about whether the date was just for show.

Perhaps the 57-year-old businessman’s apparent coldness and discomfort had something to do with the evening’s host. The studio complex is owned by handsome businessman Tyler Perry, who has previously been romantically linked to Oprah in the press.
