Oprah Winfrey’s half-sister a threat to Gayle King?

Oprah Winfrey’s BFF Gayle King is worried about the arrival of the media mogul’s secret half-sister. The 56-year-old talk show host recently discovered she had a secret sibling, Patricia, and sources say Gayle may have to get used to sharing her pal.

“Gayle must have mixed feelings about the arrival of Patricia,” an insider told the PopEater website.

“Of course she wants nothing but the best for Oprah, but there has to be just a little tiny part of Gayle that is asking, ‘What now?’

“Gayle is very protective about her relationship with Oprah and is not used to sharing her with anyone.

“The new addition to the family could be a bigger adjustment for Gayle than for Oprah.”

Oprah recently insisted she and Patricia are taking things “slow”.

“We’re taking it slow. I think it’s about building a relationship one conversation — one experience — at a time,” she said.

“I think we have the common interest of our mother. Everybody who’s dealing with an ailing parent understands that process of getting care for them. And we’re speaking regularly about that.

“She coming into the family at this time has been a great peace offering, a great symbol of peace-making in this family. I would say I see her as a gift.”
