"Needless to say, she ended up in the hospital, dehydration, had to get an IV, it was a very serious thing," the recent 'Sports Illustrated' model concluded, hoping Winfrey wouldn't mind the info being spilled.
Oprah has revealed her book club pick on 'CBS Mornings' for years, however on Tuesday, the talk show queen was not present. King added that 'The Color Purple' star was "bothered" that she couldn't attend.
Fans who caught wind of the news suspected something else, citing her use of the popular weight loss drug Ozempic as the culprit. "Ozempic is kicking Oprah's a*s lol," a user on Twitter, now known as X, wrote.
