Oprah Winfrey Shares Her Reason for Storing an Entire Octopus in Her Refrigerator

Oprah Winfrey acknowledged suspicions about a strange item in her fridge during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show. On March 15, Winfrey revealed that she does store an entire octopus in her refrigerator.

According to Pink Villa, the woman’s companion of over 30 years, Stedman Graham, enjoys eating octopus for breakfast almost daily.

Winfrey questioned Kimmel’s opinion on whether he found it odd to crave such cuisine early in the morning. “Let me just tell you, when you open that refrigerator and there’s that octopus just sitting there… It’s a gross-out thing. It’s got all the tentacles and the head… it’s real,” she added.

“Every morning when he’s eating it, I say: ‘I believe you’re the only person who’s having this for breakfast right now,’” Winfrey continued.

Graham enjoys the octopus with okra, a plant known for its grassy flavor. Kimmel humorously poked fun at Winfrey’s partner’s apparent affinity for items starting with the letter O.

“He loves things that start with O — like Oprah,” Kimmel quipped.

Winfrey became emotional during her ABC special, “Shame, Blame, and the Weight Loss Revolution,” as she conversed with a woman who participated in Oprah Daily’s “The State of Weight” Panel last September.

The woman shared her success story, having lost 85 pounds after utilizing an undisclosed weight loss medication.

“There is now a sense of hope, and you no longer blame yourself,” Winfrey said as her voice began to crack. “When I tell you how many times I have blamed myself because you think, ‘I’m smart enough to figure this out,’ and then to hear all along it’s you fighting your brain.”

The show, which will air on Hulu, includes an exclusive audience Q&A as well as discussions with medical professionals, patients, and representatives from the pharmaceutical and weight loss businesses.

It discusses the growing popularity of weight loss medications such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy.

Winfrey first dismissed these drugs as a “easy way out” when recovering from knee surgery in 2021.
