Explaining her absence on the CBS Mornings show, she said Oprah was suffering from a gastric issue — before going into eye-watering detail.

She continued: “Needless to say, she ended up in the hospital, dehydration, she had an IV, so it was a very serious thing.”

Gayle, 69, went on: “I hope she’s not mad at me for sharing that detail.”

Asked about her current state of health, she added: “She will be OK.”

It recently emerged that Oprah had used weight-loss drug Ozempic.

She said her size “occupied five decades of space in my brain, yo-yoing and feeling like why can’t I just conquer this thing?”

In 2023, Oprah Winfrey spoke about her weight loss meds use.

“I had an awareness of weight-loss medications, but felt I had to prove I had the willpower to do it. I now no longer feel that way,” she told People.

“I was actually recommending it to people long before I was on it myself,” she added.

Oprah referred to Ozempic as a “maintenance tool.”
