Oprah made it her business to set the record straight by writing Wendy a letter about her happiness for Gayle.

Oprah’s letter read, “I know there’s been some speculation that Gayle and Oprah had a falling out because Gayle will be hosting the new morning show on CBS. I wanted to make sure everyone knows that there is only happiness for Gayle and this wonderful opportunity.” It concluded with a smiley face and was signed “Love, Oprah. P.S. Stay Black!”
