Gayle King denies AI marriage rumors, says she'll stay at CBS

Gayle King used Friday’s broadcast of CBS Mornings to reject viral claims that she recently married and to respond to reports that she may leave the morning show next year, saying the images were fabricated and that she has been told by colleagues the network wants her to remain. King called the circulating photographs and stories “AI generated” and told viewers she is “not married, not even engaged,” adding that any contract discussions about her future are not something she will negotiate in public.

On the morning program, King addressed images that showed her in a wedding gown and wearing a diamond ring alongside a mystery man. She said the pictures had fooled friends and family, who sent congratulations, and read aloud one fake report that described her alleged spouse as a prominent, philanthropic businessman. “Where is he? I would like to see you, sir. Show yourself,” she said, joking that even her children had asked who the man was. Cohost Nate Burleson quipped to viewers that eligible suitors could still “shoot your shot,” and King reiterated that viewers would hear directly from her first if her relationship status changed.
