World-famous philanthropist and television producer, Oprah Gail Winfrey excitedly shared a photo from her first magazine cover with her best friend, Gayle King. The duo covered the September issue of Oprah’s Magazine where they dished about their 40 years friendship and shared the secrets to its sustainability through the years.
The billionaire media mogul said the reason her 40 years friendship with Gayle King has lasted without arguments or fallouts is that they’ve always been happy with their lives. According to Oprah, a true friend can’t be jealous of you or want to take advantage of you in any way.
“I can’t tell you how many times people have introduced me to their best friends as, “She’s my Gayle.” The reason our friendship has worked for over 40 years, without arguments or fallouts, is that we’ve always been happy with our own lives.
A true friend can’t be jealous of you, or want to take advantage of you in any way. Ever since we met in 1976, we’ve been doing the same thing.
Listening. Talking. Laughing (a lot). Building dreams. Cheering. Being a shoulder to cry on. Speaking the truth. Being the truth. And now? Posing for our FIRST @oprahmagazine cover for September’s friendship issue.”
