Gayle King’s daughter Kirby Bumpus knots in a “perfect” wedding at Oprah Winfrey’s Montecito Estate
Her daughter Kirby Bumpus tied the knot in December.
But it was only Monday that Gayle King announced the news during CBS This Morning and in an interview published in Oprah Winfrey magazine.
And it was King’s BFF Oprah who hosted the weddings that were reduced due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Kirby, 32, married fiancée Virgil Miller on her godmother Oprah’s multimillion-dollar estate in Montecito, on the outskirts of Santa Barbara, California.
The couple got engaged in February 2019.
“Kirby is really so happy, and nothing happens when your kids are happy,” King, 66, told Oprah magazine.
