- The images circulating online were generated by artificial intelligence
- King confirms she is "not married, not even engaged"
On October 31, 2025, CBS Mornings co-anchor Gayle King, 70, addressed the viral rumors about her recent engagement and marriage. King explained that she had been receiving numerous texts, messages, and online stories claiming she had gotten engaged and even married.
However, King clarified that the images circulating online were actually generated by artificial intelligence. "These [AI-]generated images have been making their way across the internet," she said. King confirmed that she is "not married, not even engaged," much to the surprise of her co-host Nate Burleson.
Adding to the cringe-factor, King admitted that she had been flooded with congratulatory messages about her non-existent romance. "People have been saying, 'Congratulations,' 'Love really happened to you,' 'I'm so happy for you,'" she said.
Despite the convincing AI-generated images, King insisted that if she were actually engaged or married, her viewers would be the first to know. "Believe me, if I was, you'd hear it here first," she said.
Burleson then jokingly teased viewers, "So for all you guys watching, go ahead and shoot your shot -- she's still single." King agreed, laughing, "You still have a shot!"
