After decades of friendship, Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King know each other better than anyone.
But that doesn’t mean Gayle wasn’t taken aback when Queen O dished up some brutal feedback on her necklace.
On Tuesday, Gayle made an appearance on CBS This Morning rocking an eye-catching statement piece.
Taking to Instagram to share a shot of her look, the editor-at-large of Oprah’s O Magazine revealed her bestie majorly disapproved of her bling.
“Note @oprah sent to my asst this am ‘plz tell Gayle I’m on treadmill & it’s hard to focus w/the circus around your neck’ I think she’s WRONG thoughts?” Gayle penned.
Her followers were quick to dish up their thoughts on the divisive necklace.
“I have to agree with Oprah, Gayle, that necklace (shield?) was far too much. I was working out on an elliptical and almost fell off when I did a double-take of it! Pretty colors…waaayyy too big!!!” One user shared.
“She is right Gayle. You are much too pretty for that necklace. Please donate it. LOL,” another added.
But not everyone disapproved of it.
“I believe that you had your own personality and taste! You go girl! You look great!” One fan beamed.
Another agreed: “I love the necklace!!!”
Powerhouse BFFs! Oprah and Gayle met in their early ’20s and have been close ever since.
Despite the duo disagreeing over the necklace, it seems Oprah’s honesty is a trait that Gail truly treasures.
“There isn’t anything that’s off limits between the two of us, whether it’s a job, whether it’s a relationship, an outfit that you’re wearing, a hair-do you’re wearing,” the 61-year-old has previously explained of having one of the world’s most influential identities as a best friend.
Adding: “You need a best friend who you know will tell you the unvarnished truth – who doesn’t want anything from you!”
And the feeling is mutual, with Oprah saying Gayle is her number one cheerleader.
“We’ve been friends since we were 21 and 22. There is not a better human being in the world as far as I’m concerned,” Oprah, who has been in a relationship with Stedman Graham since 1986, has said of Gayle.
“In all of our years of friendship, she’s always been happier for me in anything that occurred in my life… never a hint of jealously, always wanting what’s best for me! And I also want the same for her,” Oprah explained.
